V8-U-TXT.PM6 : Issue I , Revision I : October 1997
As a user, you are identified by a Personal Identification Number (PIN) and/or a Card.
The PIN is a 4 to 10 digit number given to, or selected by a user.
It can be any combination of numbers between 0 and 9.
In The Challenger programming, your PIN/Card is associated with a User number which identifies
you to The Challenger.
When a Card and/or PIN is used, the programming ensures that the only functions performed will be those authorized to
the specific PIN/Card holder. This is achieved by three features which group functions together to create:
i)
alarm groups,
ii)
door groups
and iii)
floor groups.
Alarm Groups:
There are many
alarm groups
and each one is allotted specific areas and a specific set of functions. Your User number
is assigned to an
alarm group
and will therefore perform only the functions of that
alarm group
.
Also,
time zones
are allotted to each
alarm group
. this means that the functions of an
alarm group
can be further controlled
by the time.
Door Groups:
There are at least 10 and up to 128
door groups
in your system for controlling access to doors. Each
door group
is allotted
specific door numbers, and each door number is allotted a
time zone
during which the door can be accessed by the user.
Your User number is assigned to a
door group
and will therefore access only the doors of that
door group
during
the specified timezone/s.
Floor Groups:
(relevant to systems with Lift Controllers)
There are at least 10 and up to 64
floor groups
in your system. Each
door group
is allotted specific floor numbers, and
each floor number is allotted a
time zone
during which the floor can be selected by the user.
Your User number is assigned to a
floor group
and will therefore access only the floors of that
floor group
during
the specified timezone/s.
The Challenger
can therefore be programmed so that a PIN and/or Card may be used to perform any function or
combination of functions during any time period.
eg.
-
An
alarm group
for Managers may allow access to all
Challenger
user operations at all times.
-
An
alarm group
for a cleaner may only allow their Card to disarm an area for 1 hour between 5pm & 11 pm
-
A
door group
for a night shift worker may allow their PIN to be used to open a door
between 11pm and 7am only.
Using a PIN:
When you enter your PIN on
The Challenger
keypad, each key pressed will be indicated by * on the display.
Input of an incorrect code, or a code/card which is not valid at the particular arming station, will result in 7 quick beeps
from the console.
