| Property | Value | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Status | read-only | Reports the condition of the entity or process at last polling.
{ok} indicates that the entity is licensed and polling successfully. {down} indicates that the last poll was unsuccessful, perhaps because of an incorrect property. {disabled} indicates that the Enable property is set to false. {fault} indicates another problem. Depending on conditions, multiple status flags may be set including {fault} and {disabled}, combined with {down}, {alarm}, {stale}, and {unackedAlarm}. |
| Fault Cause | read-only | Reports the reason why a network, component, or extension is in fault. Fault Cause is blank unless a fault exists. |
| Cache Status | read-only | Indicates if cache is currently being used. Caching speeds up access. If access is slow, check this property value to see if caching is currently inactive or failed. Cache is normally temporarily disabled during a join process. |
| Enabled | true (default) or false |
Turns the feature on (true) and off (false). |
| Display Unknown Wiegand Formats | true or false (default)
|
Turns off (false) unknown Wiegand messaging. |
| Has Pin Duress | true or false (default)
|
Turns the PIN duress alarm feature on and off. |
| Pin Duress Offset | text | When PIN Duress is enabled, sets a number used for incriminating a PIN value to indicate duress. For example, if a PIN number
is 1234 and the Pin Duress Offset value is 2, a PIN number of 1236 causes a duress alarm if the Pin Duress Enabled property is set to true.
|
| Remote Validation | true or false (default)
|
Controls the validation of user credentials at a remote location. Remote validation usually takes less than five seconds.
However, if a Supervisor station is busy or has a large database, remote validation can take much longer, or may not be successful
at all. In this situation, a card holder may walk away prior to the door unlocking, creating a security risk. For these reasons,
this property defaults to false. If it is disabled on either the Supervisor or remote station, remote validation does not occur.
