Global Linkages

Global linkages are the final step in the process that defines specific actions for triggering events

at specific doors. What separates this procedure from the Macro or Trigger features available for

specific doors or panels, is that this feature is capable of connecting many doors and inputs

spread across many panels.

For example, you could lock down an entire building simply by issuing a single trigger. At a more

sophisticated level, you can use global linkages to plot a complex scenario, like a sally port or a

man trap, in which a series of doors are opened in sequence, inputs associated with those doors

are sequentially masked and unmasked, and cameras are turned on as each door is opened.

Global linkages enable the qualified operator to plan a cascade of triggers and their resulting

actions with only a single code entry or command.

1. At the icon task bar on the home page, select Physical Access.
