Creating transponders and cards - AXM Plus

Activating cards or transponders for a locking system

The only credential types available are those that have been activated in your locking system.

  1. If necessary, activate cards or transponders in the locking system properties (see Enable cards or transponders).

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

    1. Click on the New transponder button.
    2. The window for creating an identification medium will open.
    4. Select the identification medium you wish to create from the Type drop-down menu.
    5. Enter a description if required.
    6. If the identification medium is to feature time-controlled authorisations: select the Time group checkbox.
    7. Select the time group from the Time group drop-down list (e.g. Time group).
    8. Activate the New person check box.
    9. AXM Plus will automatically create a new person for the new identification medium. Deactivate this check box to select an existing person (e.g. for a second identification medium or a replacement identification medium).
    10. The Person details tab is shown.
    11. Click on the Person details tab.
    13. Enter the surname and first name of the person who will receive the identification medium in the Last name and First name fields.
    14. The surname and first name will be displayed in the matrix at a later point in time.
    15. The personnel number is generated automatically.

    17. NOTE

      Personnel number formula or manual entry

      The AXM Plus generates personnel numbers based on the following formula: PN-1, PN-2, PN-X. The abbreviation PN can be changed if required (see Changing automatic numbering).

      Alternatively, you can enter personnel numbers manually:

      1. Activate the Auto check box.
      2. The Personnel number field is activated.
      3. Enter the personnel number in the Personnel number field.
    18. If you wish to assign this person to a person group: Select the person group to which this person belongs from the Person group drop-down menu.
    20. Give further details about the person if required.
    21. You can then simply select the information you enter in the Department field from a list for other persons.
    22. If you want to edit the Set on, Quitting date or Date of birth fields: Deactivate the relevant Not relevant check box.
    23. Use the Next > button to switch to the next tab or complete the entries with the Finish button.
    25. If locking devices need to open twice as long for this identification medium (doubling to max. 25 s): select the Long opening checkbox.
    26. If you don't wish locking devices for this identification medium to beep: disable the No acoustic opening signal checkbox.
    27. If you need to save the locking devices on which the identification medium was used on the identification medium: select the Personal audit trail checkbox.
    28. Select one of the three options in the Dynamic time window area (see Time budget (AX2Go and virtual network)):
      Do not change time window on the gateway option: Does not use time budgets.
      until a particular time of (next) day option: Authorisations for this identification medium expire at a specific time and can only be renewed at the gateway.
      Number of hours from the last full hour of the booking option: Authorisations for this identification medium expire after the specified number of hours, but can be extended or renewed at any time at the gateway.

    29. NOTE

      notice

      Gateway to renew time budgets

      If you select the Number of hours from the last full hour of the booking or until a particular time of (next) day option, your users will need a gateway to reload their time budgets.

    30. If you do not want the transponder to be usable immediately: disable the from now checkbox. Then enter an activation date.
    31. If the transponder is only to be used for a limited period of time, disable the without expiry date checkbox. Then enter an expiry date.
    32. Use the Additional locking systems button to switch to the next tab or complete the entries with the Finish button.
    33. If you wish to use the identification medium in other locking systems in this project: Use the Add button to add further locking systems (see Use identification media in multiple locking systems).

    34. NOTE

      notice

      Limitations for Transponder - Additional locking systems

      Depending on the type of identification medium, different volumes of memory space are available for additional locking devices (e.g.: G2 transponders can store four G2 locking systems). The locking system also needs to support the identification medium (e.g.: transponders cannot be used in card-only locking systems).

      1. Make sure that there is sufficient memory space on your identification medium.
      2. Make sure that the required locking system supports your identification medium. Upgrade the locking system if necessary (see Enable cards or transponders).
      3. Ensure that the locking system memory spaces do not overlap in the case of cards.
    35. Use the Next > button to switch to the next tab or complete the entries with the Finish button.
    37. Use to sort/filter the displayed entries if required (see Sorting and filtering).
    38. Select the required access levels in the right column (Ctrl+click for single groups or Shift+click for multiple groups).
    39. Use to move the selected access levels only or to move all displayed access levels.
    40. The identification medium is assigned to the highlighted access levels.
