Question
How do I properly use the Multiple Selection check box in System Administration?
OnGuard Enterprise (All versions)
For example, if you want to modify a specific value for multiple devices (that is, the Online and Offline Reader Modes), then using the Multiple Selection check box would be a good consideration. However, you should make sure that ALL selected devices need to have the same specific value, because once the change is confirmed, ALL selected devices will be modified to have the same specific value.
Therefore, when using the Multiple Selection check box, you should divide similar devices into groups based on their specific properties, and only modify one group of devices at a time.
Answer
1) In System Administration, select the Multiple Selection check box (if available) to put the screen into Multiple Selection mode.
The way multiple selection is supported in OnGuard can be a little confusing when first using it. When you check multiple selection and select multiple readers (or any device that allows it), clicking the modify button makes active the fields that will be synchronized (commonly changed) between the devices selected (other fields are greyed out). Regardless of what you change (for example the selected card format), any of the fields that were active will now be synchronized between each of the selected devices.
2) Select one or more items or devices you wish to modify from the desired list.
3) Click [Modify] to put the screen into Modify Mode.
4) Make the desired changes to the settings.
5) Click [OK] to confirm the setting changes.
