  • Image Retrieve Active Status initiates a system-wide job to determine what the active level is on all threat level groups across all controllers. The job returns a “Threat Level Mismatch” message if it finds a mismatched threat level group on a subordinate or peer station in the enterprise.
     NOTE: If any station was down at the time of a threat level change activation, that station has a mismatch. This process identifies any station that is currently down or has a mismatched threat level group. 
  • Image Manage Devices/Drivers opens the Manage Drivers or Manage Devices window, which is used to Add, Delete, Rename, Duplicate, Copy, and Cut system drivers or devices.
  • Image Add Child initiates creation of a new threat level group that you can assign as a child to the group you are editing.
     NOTE: You cannot cancel threat level jobs, such as Activate Threat Level and Retrieve Active Status, from the browser once they are started. 

Properties

Property Value Description
Display Name text
Creates an object name for display purposes, which may differ from the actual object name.
Parent Ref Chooser Provides a read-only display of any threat level group that is assigned as a parent group to the group that you are creating. The navigation arrows at the right side of the property open a Ref Chooser window for browsing, choosing and assigning a parent from existing groups.
Active Level read-only Displays the active (current) threat level setting for the threat level group. There can be only one active threat level per group, however, different groups may have different active threat levels.
Default Access Right Threat Level drop-down list Selects the threat level to associate with a card holder by default when an access right using this threat level group is assigned to a card holder. With the threat level group assigned to an access right, you can edit this default level value without having to change the assignment on the access right.
Active Ordinal read-only Displays the active (current) threat level as an integer. Ordinals are the characteristic identifiers that are paired with string identifiers that can be edited. These are called tags in enumerated data types where there is a discrete range of values. This ordinal is displayed [in brackets] next to the threat level display text (tag) in other properties.
Tenant Ref chooser
Defines the company name of the associated tenant.
