The door is given the security level chosen in the Installer application (often Card +
PIN security level), irrespective of the security level applying when the alarm was
armed. This security level applies until the alarm is disarmed.
Disarm an intrusion alarm system – with a card
1.
Use the card at the card reader of the door terminal.
2.
Enter your PIN (decided by the current security level).
When the alarm is disarmed the door is given the security level according to
the defined time zones.
24.2.1
Abort an automatic alarm arming cycle
If the system is configured so that alarm arming is done automatically by a time
schedule – people remaining in the facility are still able to abort an on-going alarm
arming cycle. A warning signal sounds during this time.
However - once the warning time ends there are no possibility to “buy time”. In-
stead the alarm is armed immediately.
Proceed as follows:
1.
When you hear the warning signal (the alarm will soon be turned on), find the
nearest door in the same zone.
2.
Use your card at a card reader.
- or -
Push the exit button (if allowed).
SiPass Entro will go back to the normal state – until the next automatic
arming is started.
3.
You can remain in the facility until you hear the warning signal again – and
repeat the steps above.
24.3
Enter the duress code
Duress works only during the Card + PIN security level.
This is what the person entering the building should do if forced to open the door
under threat.
1.
Use the card.
2.
Use the ordinary PIN and add up 1 number to the last digit in the PIN.
Example 1: If the PIN is 1234, press 1235 instead.
Example 2: If the PIN is 1239, press 1230 instead.
When a duress code is entered, the door is opened at the same time as the
common alarm output in IOR6 can be activated (duress has to be defined as
an alarm event for this to happen).
