Partitions
Access Control Manager utilizes partitions to limit the access of operators, devices, and users to
only specified roles. This enables Access Control Manager to provide different levels of access to
almost any element of the system.
For example, say that only security guards are allowed to enter the Security Monitor room. All
security guards would then be assigned to the Security Guard partition and this partition could
then be assigned to a special Role that had access (through an access group) to that room.
To access this feature:
1. From the icon task bar on the home page, click the Roles icon.
The Roles main screen appears.
2. From the available sub-options, click Partitions.

names then click the button.
