Normal, Secure, & Master Users
The AC-Q74 accepts up to 500 users and provides entry via the use of
proximity cards and/or PIN codes. Each user is provided with two code
memory slots, Memory Slot 1 (Primary code) and Memory Slot 2
(Secondary code). The two memory slots can be programmed as
Proximity Cards, PIN codes, or a combination of both Proximity Cards
and PIN codes.
The way in which the two memory slots are programmed determines
a user’s access level and also determines the way in which the AC-
Q74 grants access in its three modes of operation.
There are three user levels:
Normal User
A Normal User only has a Primary code and is only granted access
when the AC-Q74 is in Normal or Bypass Mode.
Secure User
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-Q74 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.
Master User
A Master User must have both Primary and Secondary codes
programmed with the same Proximity Card or PIN code. The
Master User can gain access during any mode of operation by
presenting their Proximity Card or PIN code to the controller. (The
Master User is convenient but is less secure than a Secure User.)
