Facility Code Page
The Facility Code page allows you to enter as many as 16 Facility/Company Codes for different sets
of cards. The Company Code and Facility Code are a set of numbers encoded into the access card
that the system uses to identify which site the cardholder is from. When you purchase cards, you
receive a particular company code for the set. When you purchase additional sets of cards, it is
almost certain that the cards (unless you special order them) have a different company code. You
configure a new facility and company code for the new set of cards.
To navigate to the Facility Code page, from any Setup page click the Facility Code tab button at the
top of the window, or from the main Setup page click the Facility Code button on the right side of the
page. The following page displays.
Figure 135.Facility Code
The Facility Code page contains the following information:
Facility Code
Name Enter up to 15 alphanumeric characters for the name of the card set. The Company and Facility Code
numbers can also be used as the name.
Company Code Enter up to 4 digits for the Company Code. For 26 bit card format, the facility code must be entered into
the Company Code field and the facility code field is set to 0.
Facility Code Enter up to 4 digits for the Facility Code.
CAUTION: The Company Code and Facility Code must match the numbers encoded on the access
cards. or the cards will not work properly.
Note: The Facility Code on HID cards is the equivalent of the Company Code in Topaz. For example, if
the HID facility code is 112, you would enter 112 in Company Code and 0 in Facility Code.
