Zonal Control
Zonal Control can be used by a System Administrator to manage zones on a site to prevent
tail-gating and enforce anti-passback. Zonal Control is similar to the AC2000 Anti-Passback
Zones application but offers further flow control by ensuring a cardholder passes from one
zone to another before a device can be used.
In order to use the Zonal Control application you must enable the application by running
AC2000 Floatbar | Advanced Config. | AC2000 Configured and setting the zonal_control
value to Y.
Note: If Zonal Control is enabled the AC2000 Anti-Passback Zones application is disabled
and the application will not load though it will be visible on the AC2000 Floatbar.
To run Zonal Control open AC2000 WEB | Applications | Zonal Control

This effectively turns on/off the Zone.

the import. (Records can be filtered and Unique Identifiers defined.) Using the Entry Change
Field Selection a field is defined that is used to identify any changes or entries to the CDC.
The Database Data screen is used to map the fields between the AD Server and the CDC.
The Database Field shows the AD Server fields as previously specified in the Environment
Settings screen. It is possible to both append and prefix characters to data when imported to
the CDC using the Leading Chars and Trailing Chars. In order to merge and join data the Front
Delimiter, (X) Instances, Rear Delimiter and (+/-) properties are used. It is possible to preview
the results (show examples of the mappings) once all settings have been defined.
The Schedule screen is used to specify when and how often data is imported between the AD

Note: The field name chosen must be selected in the Current Fields pane. For Active Directory

When all settings have been entered click Save Settings and then Next.
15.8.2 Recommendations
The field objectguid should be used to uniquely identify records as AD uses this field itself as
the unique id.
The field unchanged should be used as the means to identify records that have been changed
as this field is updated by AD following changes:
During import, user records can be retrieved from any AD Common Name (CN) or
Organisational Unit (OU).
It will be undesirable to import from some locations such as the standard Users CN (e.g.
CN=Users,DC=windomain,DC=net) as certain accounts such as 'Administrator', 'Guest',
etc, will be imported along with standard users.
It is recommended that a group be created, e.g. 'CardHolders', and that user records that are
to be imported are added to that group (this can be done as a multiple selection when editing
the properties of the group)
If a user is imported as a member of a group and the user is subsequently removed from the
group, their imported record will not be removed. However no updates to the imported record
will be performed.

Returning a Card
At the end of the visit, the visitor returns their card. The action of returning a card will remove
all access from the card, resulting in no access to any controlled area if swiped.
Returning the card makes the card available for reuse by another visitor, provided that the
card's format is configured to be reusable.
Select Return Card.
Note
No confirmation dialog is displayed, so it is important that Return Card is not clicked unless
the card has been returned.
The visit is removed from the Assigned list. A list of all returned visitor cards can be saved or
printed as a report. For more information about this and instructions on how to generate the
report, refer to the Reports section.
Not Returned
If a card is not returned by the visitor at the end of the visit, the Not Returned option should be
selected. This flags that the visitor still potentially holds the card so necessary security
measures can be taken.
1. Select Not Returned.
2. Select OK.
The visit is removed from the Assigned list. A list of all returned visitor cards can be saved or
printed as a report. For more information about this and instructions on how to generate the
report, refer to the Reports section.
