Commands

Overview

A command is defined as a set of one or more predefined actions that can either be performed by an administrator or as a result of a predefined trigger event. Commands and triggers are found under the Configuration section in the main menu.

Some use cases for commands and triggers include:

• Perform an action simultaneously on a number of doors (e.g. block all doors in a section of the building to achieve a "lockdown").
• Interact with an external system (e.g. arm or disarm an intrusion detection system)
• Allow end users to perform an action normally only available to administrators (e.g. unlock a door or return it to schedule)
