Configuring a threat level on a door strike

The way that a threat level affects a door depends on the way that you configure the door’s strike.
Prerequisites: You are working in the controller station that manages the door.
  1. From the main menu, click Controller Setup > Remote Devices > Remote Modules > Remote Module Setup and double-click the door device (module), click the door name, and click the Strike tab.
    The Module Setup view opens to the Strike tab.

  2. Configure the Schedule Lockdown Threat Level property to something other than None.
    The system keeps the door locked as long as the active threat level is at or above the level specified here.
     NOTE: This value must be greater than the value of the Unlock Threat Level property. If not, a warning message displays next to the property when you try to save the changes. 
  3. Configure the Unlock Threat Level property to something other than None and to a lower threat level than that configured for Schedule Lockdown Threat Level.
    Typically, the Unlock Threat Level would be lower than the level defined for normal operation (less than 5 in our example). The system keeps the door unlocked, no matter what the associated schedule state is.
     NOTE: This value must be less than the value of the Schedule Lockdown Threat Level property. If not, a warning message displays next to the property when you try to save the changes.
