Normal, Secure, & Master Users
The AC-C31 accepts up to 500 users and provides entry via the use
of PIN codes. Each user is provided with two code memory slots,
Memory Slot 1 (Primary Code) and Memory Slot 2 (Secondary
Code).
The way in which the two memory slots are programmed
determines a users access level and also determines the way in
which the AC-C31 grants access in its three Modes of Operation.
A Normal User only has a Primary Code and is only
granted access when the AC-C31 is in Normal or
Bypass Mode.
A Secure User must have a Primary and Secondary
Code programmed, the two codes must not be the
same. The Secure User can gain access when the
AC-C31 is in any of its three Modes of Operation. In
Normal Mode the Secure User must use their
Primary Code to gain entry. In Secure Mode the
Secure User must present both their Primary and
Secondary Codes in order to gain entry.
A Master User must have both Primary and
Secondary Codes programmed with the same PIN
code. The Master User can gain access during any
Mode of Operation by presenting their PIN code to
the controller. (The Master User is convenient but is
less secure than a Secure User).
There are three user levels:
Normal User
Secure User
Master User
Modes of Operation
!
The AC-C31 has 3 Modes of Operation:
1) Normal Mode
2) Bypass Mode.
3) Secure Mode.
.
Mode LED is green
Normal Mode is the default mode. In Normal Mode the door is
locked until a Primary Code is presented to the controller. Special
codes such as “Open Code 1” and “Open Code 2” are active in
Normal mode. (See Page 18 for more information on Open Code
1 & Open Code 2).
Mode LED is orange
In Bypass Mode, access to the premises is dependent on
whether the controller's Lock Strike Relay is programmed for Fail
Safe Operation or Fail Secure Operation.
When the Lock Strike Relay is programmed for
Fail Secure Operation, the door is locked until the Door
Bell Button is pressed.
When the Lock Strike Relay is programmed for
Fail Safe Operation, the door is constantly unlocked.
Mode LED is red
Only Secure and Master Users can access the premises during
the Secured Mode.
A Secure User must enter their Primary and
Secondary Codes to gain entry. After entering their Primary
Code the Door LED will flash green for 10 seconds, during
which the Secondary Code must be entered.
A Master User only needs to present their PIN code once
to gain entry.
