Question
What are NGP Permission Profiles, and how do I configure them?
Answer
Permission profiles are created to define categories of authority for groups of cardholders. The profiles will control certain access functions and all intrusion functions that a cardholder has in a particular area.
To access Permission profiles, the OnGuard user must have the following settings in the System Permission Groups checked:
Intrusion tab (Panel Intrusion section) > Permission profiles
Permission profiles are create on the following form:
System Administration > Access Control > Access Levels > Permission Profiles tab.
If Master Override is checked, access is granted at any reader that enters into the area that the profile is paired with, regardless of the state of the door or of the reader.
Once created, the Permission profile is paired with an area on the System Administration > Access Control > Access Levels > Access Levels tab > Area Permission (NGP) sub-tab.
This pairing is then incorporated into an Access Level.
By default, the Access service menu and Perform service test options are greyed out.
To enable these options, add the following to the NGP section of the ACS.INI file:
