Exit Readers tab

This tab provides a way to manually assign or unassign exit readers to the current access zone. It displays only local exit readers. You can only add readers to access zones when you are connected to the reader’s assigned station. Readers are not visible, nor can they be configured from remotely-grouped stations.

You access this tab from the main menu by clicking Controller Setup > Access Setup > Access Zones, followed by creating a new zone or double-clicking an existing zone and clicking the Exit Readers tab.

 NOTE: In a company-wide system, exit readers are available from more than one controller. 

The remote station passes exit reader information to a Supervisor station, as appropriate, but exit readers cannot be configured, nor are they visible from the Supervisor station.

Except for the title, this tab contains similar information to that contained in the Entry Readers tab.

  • Image Delete removes the selected exit reader from the Newly Assigned pane.
  • Image Add moves the selected exit reader from the Unassigned pane to the Newly Assigned pane.
  • Image Hyperlink in either pane opens the Summary tab for the selected exit reader.
