Enable PIN commands

Check this box to indicate that the user may enter PIN commands through the keypad.

The EM-100 controller provides a PIN commands feature that enables an authorized badge holder to lock and unlock a reader which has a keypad, by entering a command at that reader. After a reader has been locked, no one will be granted access to the door's protected area until the reader is unlocked, even if they would normally be able to gain access. After a reader has been unlocked, the normal access rules are applied again. An example of using PIN commands is a roaming security guard who locks specific readers controlling areas that are off-limits after hours, and then unlocks them prior to normal working hours.

Two things must be configured before the PIN commands feature can be used:

Then badge holders who are authorized to use PIN commands can enter the following command codes at those readers:

00* - Lock the reader, so no one can use it to gain access until it is unlocked (by the 99* command).

99* - Unlock the reader, to restore normal access.
