How do I create a Reader Group in MonitorCast?

  • Video Insight VMS
  • Installation/Configuration

Just like a personnel group, Reader Groups can be used to add a block of readers into access levels, door schedules, rules and etc. without having to add each reader individually. This can be configured under [Hardware] → [Reader Groups]

・To begin, go to Reader Group (Hardware > Reader Groups)

 

・Once in the reader group menu, select a site you want to create a reader group for, and click on the edit button (see below) 

 

・Then select “Add New.”
・You will get a configuration screen. You can set a name and description for the new reader group,
 as well as select the readers you want to add to the new group
