Card Types
3.2
In order to fully utilise the NanoQuest system, three different card types are used. Master cards are
used for accessing the programming menu as described in section 3.1. The two remaining card types
are ‘User cards’ and ‘Auxiliary cards’.
User Cards
3.2.1.
User cards should be provided to those people that have permission to access to the area protected
by the NanoQuest unit. Once a card has been added to the NanoQuest as a User card, the
NanoQuest will unlock the door and grant access whenever that card is presented to it. Each User
card can be added to multiple NanoQuest units. This therefore enables each person to gain access
through multiple doors using one common User card.
Auxiliary Cards
3.2.2.
Auxiliary cards operate in the same way as User cards for access through doors but have the
additional function of controlling the Auxiliary output. The Auxiliary output is typically used to arm an
intruder alarm system by the person who is last to leave the building and to disarm it by the person
who is first to arrive (see Section 6).
