is not designed to accept these ID card
Establish a global common database - load 400,000 IDs at any door, anywhere, across existing diverse access control systems.
Common Pass™ Business Situation Modes - ensure access control continuity with Business Situation Modes. Business Situation Modes define how access is granted. Business Situation Modes can represent “Normal Operation” or catastrophic events such as incidents, lock downs, storms or pandemics. Switching to a different Business Situation Mode allows different groups of people access, even if these people are unknown to the local existing access control system. For instance, people from another business location can be granted access based on a specific Business Situation Mode. These Business Situation Modes can be pre-loaded along with the global common database at any location.
Activate Business Situation Mode – when a business condition changes, activating the pre-loaded Business Situation Mode allows access to specific groups, even where these groups are unknown to the local existing access control system.
Any Person - grant access to people unknown to the local access control system. These people can include Responders, owner/operators, tenants, contractors, non-local employees or temporary workers. Common Pass™ has a capacity of 400,000 IDs (millions with pluggable additional memory) at each door. IDs can be administered from anywhere via a secure network connection and a web browser.
Any ID - carry a single ID card. Access can be granted to any ID format, even if the existing panel is not designed to accept these formats. These ID formats can include advanced state of the art “smart” cards including FIPS-201 cards. Three additional readers of any format can be added at any door.
