The Auto Open feature allows the user to open two locks sequentially with only one open command. An authorized user can configure an Auto Open Sequence that will open lock 1 of the multi-lock system (Primary Lock), wait for a defined time (Lag Time), then open another lock in the multi-lock system (Target Lock). A typical application for this feature would be in a situation requiring access/entry to a space with both an outer area and an inner area, with access to each area restricted by a door with an installed lock. These locks are installed as a part of a multi-lock system. With the inner door set as the Target Lock, and the outer door as Lock 1 of the multi-lock system (Primary Lock), an authorized user could be granted access to the outer area, travel to the inner area, and then be granted access to the inner area. The Auto Open Sequence is activated under these conditions:
Note: If a user is granted the privilege to open a lock defined to be in an Auto Open Sequence, they are automatically granted the privilege to open lock 1 as part of the sequence. If they are not specifically granted the privilege to open lock 1, then they cannot open lock 1 except as part of an Auto Open Sequence |
