Creating PIN code keypads - AXM Classic

PIN code keypads allow your users to engage and disengage locking devices using a number code (PIN) (also see Identification media, locking devices and the locking plan).

In the interests of best practice (see Best practice: setting up the locking system), SimonsVoss recommends that you configure schedules/time groups first:

A PIN code keypad AX is created in this example. You can create a PIN code keypad 3068 in the same way, but you cannot specify the length of the PINs and the PINs in your AXM Classic (also see PIN Code G1 vs. PIN Code AX).

NOTE

notice

Authorisations set automatically

Your AXM Classic assumes that you also want to authorise newly created PINs. Newly created PINs therefore automatically receive authorisation for the assigned locking device.

  2. Locking device has been created for the PIN code keypad (see Creating a locking device in the AXM manual).
  1. Click on the New PinCode button .
  2. The PinCode - Details window will open.
  4. Select the PIN code keypad you wish to create from the Type drop-down menu.
  6. Enter a name for the PIN code keypad in the Name field.

    Duplicate PINs not permitted for PIN code keypad AX

  15. Disable the Authorised checkbox if you want to authorise the PIN at a later stage.
  16. If you want to control an activation/expiry date or the authorisation in terms of time, use to expand the PIN settings.
