ClearID

In Genetec ClearID™, an area is a logical entity that defines the relationship between Synergis™ doors and area owners. Areas are managed by the area owner.

Doors are not managed in Genetec ClearID™, doors are managed in Security Center:
  • Managing doors from ClearID is impractical due to the distance from the hardware.
  • A door must be properly configured in Security Center and linked to the hardware physically managing the door.
  • After areas are created in ClearID and synchronized in Security Center, doors can then be added to those areas in Security Center.
    NOTE: Doors moved under areas inherit the access rules of the area.
  • Door setup is performed in Security Center separately from the areas. After both doors and areas are present in Security Center, doors must be added to areas.
