3.7.2 Device

Association

The DEVICE ASSOCIATION function allows you to associate the names of a card, transmitter, or other 26-bit
wiegand devices connected to the system with certain code numbers restricted to that device. For example, if an
entry system is using a combination of card readers and RF transmitters, this feature allows you to name a range
of codes associated with each device. This function will also allow you to "mass enable" (turn on) a specified
range of codes at one time.

NOTE: Device association simply associates a range of "device" codes with a device name that you create.

1. From the SYSTEM INFO screen, click the

DEVICE ENABLE button on the tool bar. The
default Device Association window will appear
(Fig 34).

Figure 34

2. Click the "Device Name" field and enter a

name for the device (12 characters max).

3. Click the "From" field and enter the beginning

device number. Click the "To" field and enter
the ending device number.

4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 to enter additional device

names and ranges (Fig 35).

5. Click the OK button (or press ENTER) when

complete or click the "Mass Enable" arrow next
to the device codes that you want to activate
(see 3.7.3).

In the example, a combination of access cards,
MicroPLUS™ transmitters, and personal identification
numbers (PINs) have been used for access control
purposes. Device names are a maximum of 12
characters. In this example, access cards have been
labeled "Cards", MicroPLUS™ transmitters have been
labeled "Trans", and PIN codes have been labeled
"PIN". Notice also that three different sets of cards have
been issued, each with their own unique range of codes.
The labels "Cards," "Trans" and "PIN" will be used in the
transaction log anytime a device within the respective
ranges is used. In addition, the first letter of the device
name will show on the resident screen under the T
(type) field to identify the type of device.

IMPORTANT: These steps do not activate (or turn on) any device codes. Device association only "labels"
a range of device codes. To activate (turn on) these devices, go to section 3.7.3. Device codes must be
entered as a 5-digit number between 00001 and 65407. The system allows a maximum of 8000 device
codes, therefore you simply cannot "mass enable" codes 00001 through 65407 as this exceeds the
maximum amount of device codes allowed
.
