When a reader is configured for Double Card Presentation, the reader will remain in the configured reader mode until authorized personnel arrive. Once a person with Double Card Presentation authority presents their badge twice to a reader, access is granted, and the reader mode changes to unlocked. The door remains unlocked until a person with Double Card Presentation authority presents their badge twice again.
- Double card presentation authorized must be enabled for people via People Groups with access to readers configured for double card presentation.
- When a door is unlocked, a double card presentation should return the reader to the default reader mode.
- If the reader is in card-and-PIN mode, people only need to enter their PIN once after the first credential read. A PIN entry after the second read is ignored.
- If the reader is set to a schedule:
- When people perform a double card presentation before the reader schedule starts, the door will remain unlocked until the reader schedule ends.
- When people perform a double card presentation during the reader schedule, the door will remain unlocked until a double card presentation is performed again, even if the reader schedule ends.
