Configuring readers to update OSS Standard Offline cards - Security Center 5.12

To ensure that access is correctly granted and denied, cards encoded with an OSS Standard Offline configuration must periodically be updated with the latest access rights. You can configure a reader to update these cards every time they are presented to the reader.

   3. In the For Synergis units under this Access Manager role section, select the Manage offline doors option.
   4. Click Apply, and then restart the Access Manager role.
   The doors without any hardware configured can now be synced to the Synergis units under the Access Manager role.
