Reusing identification medium in other projects/databases

Using the same identification medium in different projects/databases

You are not only able to use the same identification medium within a project (see Reuse identification medium in the same project).

You also have the option of using the same identification medium not only in different locking systems, but also in different databases:

  1. Synchronise the identification medium in your project (see Synchronise an identification medium (including importing physical access list)).
  2. Synchronise the same identification medium in another project or in another database.
  1. Identification medium is used in several locking systems which are separate from one another.

Recognition by the serial number

Although they are in different projects, both identification media have the same entry in the Serial number field in the Transponder window.

One look at the programmed transponder tells you that it really is the same transponder:

Recognition by the programmed data sets

You can also identify use in other databases by the programmed data sets:

  1. Transponder open.
  1. Click on the Synchronisation: button.
  2. The Synchronise transponder window will open.
  3. Synchronise the transponder (see Synchronise an identification medium (including importing physical access list)).
  4. Expand the Programmed records area.
  1. Depending on which locking system you are in, you will see a second locking system in the programmed data sets. However, you will only see the locking system ID unlike when you reuse it in the same project (see Reuse identification medium in the same project). The locking system ID is also stored in the identification medium and is therefore known. However, the locking system’s name is saved in another database and therefore cannot be displayed.
