This document makes the following assumptions:

• You have already added IP cameras to your XProtect software
• Cardholders and hardware have already been added and configured
  in Doors.NET

This short document explains how you can view the real-time events generated by the access control system, view door information and live video feeds from cameras which have been associated with the doors, view the physical door status (open, closed, forced, etc). It explains how you can lock and unlock the doors and how to view cardholder information and cardholder images.

The second tab on the Access Control screen is Doors. Here you will see a list of all doors which have been added to XProtect. Also displayed will be the real-time status of the door (whether the door is open, closed, forced or held open).

NOTES:
- The maximum number of doors which can be added to XProtect is controlled by the door count defined in your XProtect Access license.
- The Doors.NET system might contain more Doors that are not visible in DOORS VIEW because customer did not purchase enough XPADL licenses to see all Doors at same time.
- You can modify which Doors are visible by running Milestone XProtect Management Application and edit Access Control Integration or enable specific Doors to be visible in DOORS VIEW.

On the right side of the screen you will see live video from the camera associated with the selected door.

Beneath the live video window there is door information and door control buttons.

From the Access Control doors tab, select the door that you wish to control. Click on either the Lock, Unlock or Temp Unlock buttons.

8.0 Cardholders

The third tab on the Access Control screen is Cardholders. It displays a list of all Doors.NET cardholder records that have one or more credentials assigned.

Select a cardholder record - a window will populate with the cardholder's details (cardholder image, activation and deactivation dates, card number, card imprint and card type).

You can click on the VIEW CARDHOLDER EVENTS button to retrieve a list of historical access control events associated with the cardholder. You will also see if there are any available video clips associated with the cardholder events.
