Before you can submit access requests or invite visitors, you must add the doors in your areas to the associated areas that were automatically created in Security Center by Genetec ClearID™.
Before you begin
What you should know
- Only Config Tool users with the View door properties privilege can add doors to areas in Security Center that are associated with areas in ClearID.
- When an area is created in ClearID, areas are automatically created in Security Center.
- Doors must then be added to the associated areas that are automatically created in Security Center.
Doors that are members of an area can be configured as Captive or Perimeter doors:
- Perimeter doors are used to enter and exit an area, and help to control access.
- Captive doors are used within an area.
Procedure
- From the Config Tool homepage, open the Area view task.
- Select an area and then click the Properties tab.
-
In the Doors section, click Add an item
(
) and select the doors that you
want to link to your area.
-
For all doors in the Doors section, configure the door type:
- If the door is used to enter or exit the area, set the slider to Perimeter.
- If the door is located inside the area, set the slider to
Captive.NOTE: If a smaller area is nested inside a larger area, you do not need to add the perimeter doors of the smaller area as captive doors of the larger area. The system automatically organizes nested areas when calculating people counts and applying antipassback rules.
- To swap the door sides, select the door and click Swap door side.
- Click Apply.
