Different types of Lock Users in LA GARD 700 Series

Answer

There are three types of users, each with different capabilities. The sub-sections outlined below cover each Lock User Type and their respective functions.

1. Master

• There can be 1 Master User per safe lock system, but not required
• Combination length is always 8 digits and is not modified by the combination length system setting
• The default factory combination is 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8
• The User ID is always 00 and cannot change
• Can create or modify Manager and Standard users
• Can change system settings
• Cannot open the lock
• Can change their combination either via the Keypad or the LA GARD Software client
• Master cannot change their combination to 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8
• Master combination must be changed upon first use. It will be required as a part of installing the lock.
• Needs to authenticate with an old combination prior to being allowed to update their combination

2. Manager

• Should be enabled within the system, but not required
• Multiple Managers may be defined depending on the lock type
• Only Master users can modify the Manager’s settings (Requires authenticated Master User ID)
• The Managers Credential will consist of a 2 digit User ID plus a 6 to 9 digit combination. Note: The Combination Length Requirement is a system setting and will be the same for all Managers and Users.
• May change their combination via the Keypad
• Can create Standard Users
• The forced-change-on-first-use rule may apply to Manager combinations depending on your system setting. When applied, users must change their combinations on first use after being added, or after their combinations have been changed by a Master or Manager user. Default System Setting does not require combination change.
• May be granted access to open the lock if the access settings are enabled for the lock
• May set other access Users’ combination via the Keypad menus or via the LA GARD Software client
• May be granted Time Delay Override if Time Delay option is applied to a safe lock
• Can bypass Dual User mode if not included in Dual User Requirement
• Can bypass Dual Credential mode if not included in Dual Credential Requirement

3. Standard Users

Note: The Combination Length Requirement is a system setting and will therefore be the same for all Managers and Users.

• The combination is in the format of 2 ID digits plus 6 to 9 combination digits
• The forced-change-on -first-use rule may apply to Standard User depending on your system settings. When applied, users must change their combinations on first use after being added, or after their combinations have been changed by a Master or Manager user. Default System Setting does not require combination change.
• In a multi-lock installation, the User may be enabled for some locks and disabled for others
• All User settings apply to all enabled locks within a multi-lock configuration
• Users can be granted one or more privileges
