To add a new special card for a terminal, go to Communication - Special Card Manager and select the type of card you need to add:
Single MC Card: Single MC cards are cards or fingerprints templates linked to an MC code defined (see Master Codes). A single MC card can only be linked to one MC code. However, different cards can be linked to the same MC code. The single MC card is used to append an MC code to one booking. After booking with an MC card, the employee must book in within 10 seconds. A maximum of 100 single MC cards can be created.
Multiple MC Card: Multiple MC cards are cards or fingerprint templates that are linked to the MC codes. A multiple MC card can only be linked to one MC code. However, different cards can be linked to the same MC code.
The multiple MC card is used to append an MC code to the bookings of a group of employees. Repeat MC codes always overrule single MC codes. When the multiple MC card is used, the MC code will remain until it is cleared again. A maximum of 100 multiple MC cards can be created.
Function Card: Function cards are used to open the Diagnostics menu of your iT30/iT300 terminal. A maximum of 50 function cards can be created.
Reboot Card: Reboot cards are used to reboot the terminal. A maximum of 50 reboot cards can be created.
PIP Emergency Card: PIP emergency roll call cards are used to activate the emergency status on terminals and Astrow Mobile (see PIP Emergency Roll Call - General Settings for further details).
