In the top menu bar, there is a dropdown menu called Access control. Among other options, it includes the item Timezones. Timezones are used to define the permitted time intervals during which users from a specified access group are allowed to enter through selected doors or readers. They make it possible to precisely control the hours and days when employees can access individual workplaces.
You can add new timezones to the system using the icon
in the top left corner.
After selecting it, an Add window will appear, where you enter the name of your time zone and select the days/holiday the zone should apply to (to select a day, check the box to the left of the day’s name). By clicking the icon
, a window will appear allowing you to define a time interval. You can either select an interval from the dropdown list of saved time intervals, or set your own interval using the icon
.
The selected interval is saved, then saved again, and it will appear in the table as green rectangles on the selected days.
Individual time intervals can be deleted using the icon
or by clicking directly on the specific time interval in the graphical table.
You can also delete all configured time intervals at once using the
icon.
If the time zones cannot be edited, the settings are inherited from the connected reader.
All added time schedules are displayed in the overview table. Time schedules can be edited
or deleted
from here.
The table also displays the access groups assigned to each time zone and the doors that fall under the respective time zone.
“Never” and “Always” are predefined system time zones. The “Never” zone has no time intervals set, while the “Always” zone covers all 7 days with a continuous time interval.
