Creating an activation badge

You create an activation badge the same way you create any other badge, but, instead of providing access to a facility, you configure this badge to activate one specific threat level for one specific threat level group.
Prerequisites: The person (fictitious or real) exists with an access right assignment for a valid schedule. All readers for which this badge is to activate the threat level exist. If your system is configured with a Supervisor, you are currently working in the Supervisor station.
 NOTE: To make it easier to set up the activation badges, you may want to create a threat level person and assign all activation badges to that person. 
  1. From the main menu click Personnel > Badges, and click the Add button (Image).
    The Add New Badge view opens to the Badges tab.
  2. Configure the basic badge properties.
  3. For Owner, enter the person with the access right assignment that is valid for activating a threat level on desired readers.
  4. When you complete configuring the badge, click the Save button.
  5. Navigate to Threat Levels, double-click the threat level group to assign to the badge, and click the Activation Badges tab.
    The Activation Badges tab opens.
  6. Click the Assign Mode button (Image).
    The system discovers all unassigned badges. The activation badge may be assigned to only one threat level group. Once it is assigned to a group, it is not available from the Unassigned pane to be assigned to any other badge in the Activation Badges view.
  7. Select the activation badge and click the Assign button (Image).
    The system assigns the badge to the threat level group.
