Access Cards are programmed into one of 15 Time Zones. The particular Time Zone into which an Access Card is 
programmed determines if and when a cardholder will be granted access. Programming an Access Card into Time 
Zone “0” makes the card void (it never is allowed access). Programming an Access Card into Time Zone “1” makes 
a card valid for entry without restriction as long as the 11-65000 is in an active mode. Programming an Access Card 
into any other Time Zone restricts the card’s usage, depending upon how the Time Zone is set (see page 31 for setting 
Time Zones). 
Using the Menu System
To program cards using the menu system, select item 2 (Cards) from the main menu. Then select 1 (Program Cards 
Into a Time Zone) from the Card menu. Then in the Program Cards dialog box, enter the Time Zone into which the 
cards are to be programmed, the starting number of the block of cards to be programmed, and the ending number 
of the block of cards to be programmed. To program one card only, use its number as the starting and ending 
number.
Using a Progrsmming deck
Programming a single card is slightly different than programming a block of cards when using the Programming Deck.
Programming a Single Card
To program a single card into a Time Zone, place the sequence of Program Cards representing the card number on 
the TOUCH CARD® reader plate. Then place the “*” (THRU) card on the TOUCH CARD® reader plate, remove it. Then 
place the sequence of cards representing the Time Zone on the TOUCH CARD® reader plate, remove it and place 
the “*” (THRU) card on the TOUCH CARD® reader plate. Then place the “VALID” card on the TOUCH CARD® reader 
plate and remove it.
 Example: Program card number 11 into Time Zone 12. Place the “1” card on the TOUCH CARD® reader plate, 
remove it and again place the “1” card on the TOUCH CARD® reader plate, remove it and place the “*” (THRU) 
card on the TOUCH CARD® reader plate. Remove it and place the “1” card on the TOUCH CARD® reader plate, 
remove it and place the “2” card on the TOUCH CARD® reader plate, remove it and place the “*” (THRU) card on 
the TOUCH CARD® reader plate. Then place the “VALID” card on the TOUCH CARD® reader plate, and remove it. 
Programming a Block of Cards
 To program a block (continuous sequence) of cards into a particular Time Zone, place the sequence of cards 
representing the first card number of the block on the TOUCH CARD® reader plate, then the “*” (THRU) card, then 
the sequence of cards representing the last card number of the block, then the “*” (THRU) card. Then place the 
sequence of cards representing the Time Zone on the TOUCH CARD® reader plate, remove it and place the “*” 
(THRU) card on the TOUCH CARD® reader plate. Then place the “VALID” card on the TOUCH CARD® reader plate.
 Example: Program cards 5 thru 22 into Time Zone 6.
Place the “5” card on the TOUCH CARD® reader plate, remove it and place the “*” (THRU) card on the TOUCH 
CARD® reader plate, remove it and place the “2” card on the TOUCH CARD® reader plate, remove it and again 
place the “2” card on the TOUCH CARD® reader plate, remove it and place the “*” (THRU) card on the TOUCH 
CARD® reader plate, remove it and place the “6” card on the TOUCH CARD® reader plate, remove it and place 
the “*” (THRU) card on the TOUCH CARD® reader plate, remove it and place the “VALID” card on the TOUCH CARD® 
reader plate, and remove it.
VOIDING CARDS . To void (cancel) Cards, program them into Time Zone “0,” or, using the Program Deck, enter the 
card number or number range and then use the VOID card.
