Issue
Anti-passback and AIC defined on the same door not working correctly
Product Line
TAC INET
Environment
I/NET Seven prior to rev 2.11
Cause
Before the release of I/NET Seven Rev 2.11 there was an issue with having APB and AIC on the same door. Basically the issue was the AIC function ran upon an entry into a zone, but it also ran the AIC function on the exit from the zone as well. This was an incorrect operation.
Resolution
In order to correct this function, a change was made in the AIC editor allowing the user to choose which reader (zone number) the AIC should run during a card read. Choose the entry reader (zone number) to have the AIC run only during an entry into that zone or choose the exit reader (zone number) to have the AIC run only during an exit from that zone.
Door editor settings
On the right side of this window will be an entry zone of #3 and an exit zone of #1. This is a little confusing to people, in the Transaction table in AMT you will get a double transaction on an entry & exit card read.
For example during a card read with the settings above on an entry. You will get “Exit from Zone 1 and entry into Zone 3”. This is why the setting above is seen this way.
Zone lay out
As stated above the Transactions from an APB door will be this:
- Entry read—Exiting from Zone 1 and entering Zone 3
- Exit read --- Exiting from Zone 3 and entering Zone 1
AIC Settings
In the AIC setting above the Zone listed is #1, in the case the AIC will run only during an entry card read based on the setting in the Door editor above.
Now if you want the AIC to function only on the exit from Zone #3 then replace the #1 in the APB zone above with in this example #3. In this case the entry reader will only let you in the door (NO AIC functions) and upon the exit from Zone 3 the reader will open the door and also give the AIC functions.
