They get a lot more benefits than individual staff member or hotel guest. The benefits appear in all stages of the lifespan of the locking system. It is not that Compucon favours owners or management than users. It is just the nature of scale. System owners and managers will get training from Compucon before, during and after project implementation.
The initial allocation of cards to locks for users is a big job depending on the number of the 3 parameters (cards, locks, users).
The on-going maintenance of the use of the system would be efficient and fast when replacements are required or when there are changes of any one parameter.
A log of locking and unlocking events will be kept and the manager can track back the sequence of events if needed.
A snapshot of the person unlocking a door can be saved to the event log. This extra info may reveal that a card was used by another person instead of the registered owner if this info is useful at all.
Alarm will be raised if any usage conditions by people or system health conditions have breached prescribed states.
The system can be used for recording the time of attendance of a staff member in the office or factory.
A duress alarm will be raised to the building supervisor if a user is under pressure to let another person enter the building with him at the same time- he or she will enter a special PIN which is the Duress code of the building or office.
