WinPak - Unlock/Lock Energize/De-energize
Posted: Thu Dec 10, 2009 2:05 pm
The Terms Unlock/Lock Energize/De-energize with in WinPak has always been confusing.
The basic differences between these two terms:
Energize/De-energize - is a Relay
Unlock/Lock - is the Door
In almost all casts when a Relay is Energized the door is unlocked and De-energized Locked.
But not all casts the Relay could be Energized and the door could be locked and not do to if it is a Fail Safe/Fail Secure lock.
So with in (Control Map) if you right click a Reader and not the Lock,
it will display Unlock - Lock which is easier to understand.
But a problem with this is with in (Control Map) the Lock will go Green/Red not the reader
