Cardholders and Enrollment

Cardholders and Enrollment

1.0 Introduction

Cardholder and credential enrollment is a very simple process and the system supports manual enrollment of Keri MS, Keri NXT, 26-bit Wiegand card formats and RAW Wiegand card numbers.

 

Manual Enrollment is the process of manually entering the cardholder's credential details (such as the imprint and facility code) - or the full RAW card number (copied from live events).

 

Note: Keri NXT credentials do not use a facility code.

 

Borealis uses an enrollment wizard to walk you through adding a cardholder, assigning a credential to that cardholder and then assigning access rights. Alternatively, if you wish to add a new credential to an existing cardholder, click on Credentials from the main menu and then click the CREATE button (see section 5.0).
