Minimum Required Program Level
This Programming Level abbreviation is the minimum programming
level required to access the particular Function. (The higher the
level number, the more programming tasks the User is allowed,
with Master allowing all tasks).
In this manual, Programming Levels are abbreviated as follows: M
= Master, 4 = Installer, 3 = Manager, 2 = Supervisor, 1 = Print Only
Users
User Numbers
(User Number = Location Number = User Location = Slot in Lock)
User Numbers are used and are significant within each individual
lock only. The User Number determines the Programming Level for
each User. For example, many locks can hold up to 2000 Users in
its programming memory. This memory can be thought of as
simply a numbered list from 1 through 2000. Each entry in the list is
represented by a User Number. Therefore, where a User is located
in this list--their User Location--is a commonly used description of
their User Number. Because of their similarities, a User Number,
User Location and Location Number can be used interchangeably.
In some DL-Windows screens, the word "Slot" is also used.
Since User Numbers are fixed, knowing a User Number will specify
the associated Programming Level, and will in turn indicate a User’s
programming abilities. For example, User Number 1 is always the
Master, who can perform all programming tasks.
Programming Levels are hierarchical--higher levels are allowed to
do anything the levels below them can do. For example, if you are
User 2, you are allowed to do anything that Users 3 through 2000
can do. Some DL series locks can hold up to 300 Users in its
memory, however, the definition of a User Number is the same for
these locks as well. (Not applicable to the DL2800/DL3000).
Groups
With many lock applications, it is convenient for large numbers of
similar Users to be grouped together. Placing Users into Groups
(by assigning them specific User Numbers) allows large numbers of
Users to be controlled all at once rather than individually--saving
time and effort. Groups are controlled via schedules, and a typical
example involves enabling or disabling a Group at a certain time.
For example, if you wish to add a User to Group 1, assign this User
a User Number between 51 and 100. Default Group associations
(see the lock programming instructions for details) can be changed
if needed to allow Groups larger than the default number. In
addition, a single User can be assigned to different Groups in
different locks within an Account. See page 16 for more
information.
Users 297-300
Many locks have Users assigned to User Numbers 297, 298, 299
and 300. These User Numbers have special abilities, as follows:
User 297: Quick Enable User 300
User 297 possesses the unique ability to enable the User Code
associated with User 300. User 297 does this by first entering
their own User 297 User Code into the lock keypad. When User
300 subsequently enters their User 300 User Code, the lock
allows access (for one time) and then the User 300 User Code
becomes disabled.
For example, you wish to allow one-time access to a temporary
worker. Simply enter the User 297 User Code into the lock
keypad. Later, when the temporary worker enters the User 300
User Code into the lock keypad, the User 300 User Code allows
access (for one time only) and then becomes disabled. Later, if
you wish to grant the temporary worker re-access, simply re-enter
the User 297 User Code and the User 300 User Code will be re-
enabled (again for one time only). Note: User 297 is not used
with the DL2800/DL3000 locks, but Function 9 can be used with
the DL2800/DL3000 locks as an alternative.
User 298: Quick PC Access Code
Entering the User Code for User 298 enables that User to send
data to or from the lock. Therefore, User 298 can activate what is
the equivalent of Function 58 in Program Mode (see the lock
programming instructions for details), without the need to enter
Program Mode nor the need to know the Master Code of the lock.
An AL-PCI2 cable with a PC is required. NOTE: The User Code
for User 298 is not an Access Code and is not used with the
DL2800/DL3000 locks.
User 299: AL-DTM Code
This is the only User Code that will initiate data transfer with the
AL-DTM--and without allowing the User to pass through the door
(the User Code for User 299 is not an Access Code). An AL-PCI2
cable and an AL-DTM (first programmed by the computer via the
DTM screen in DL-Windows) is required.
User 300: Temporary Access
Temporary access User Code enabled by User 297. For
example, User Code 300 is sometimes used for guard tour duties.
See User 297: Quick Enable User 300 above. Note: User 297 is
not used with the DL2800/DL3000 locks, but Function 9 can be
used with the DL2800/DL3000 locks as an alternative.
Accounts
Technically, an Account is a DL-Windows computer database file
that allows you to organize and maintain multiple lock installations.
But in practical terms, an Account is often named after the building
or company location in which a lock or multiple locks have been
installed. For example, the Account Name might be “Overbrook
Hospital” and listed in that Account are the 4 locks you just installed
on the 7th floor. In DL-Windows, Accounts can be created, edited,
cloned and deleted. The benefit of an Account is that it allows you
to add the name of a User ONCE and then assign that User to
multiple locks within a building--rather than having to enter and re-
enter the same User information again and again for each lock in
your building. Enter the name of the User once in the Global Users
screen, then sit back and assign that User to the locks you wish --
with just a click of the mouse.
Global ID Numbers
Note: The Global ID number can be hidden from view. See page
16 to show or hide the Global ID number.
A Global ID is used within the DL-Windows Global Users screen
and is Account specific--it remains constant within Accounts only. A
Global ID is not related to User Numbers nor Programming Levels.
The Global Users screen simply lists all potential Users within an
Account (which can contain up to 2000 locks).
DL-Windows keeps track of each "Global User" listed in the Global
Users screen by use of the Global ID number, but its significance
ends there--it acts as an internal designation only.
