You can investigate events related to elevators (Floor accessed, Elevator offline: Device is offline, Hardware tamper, and so on), using the
Elevator activities report.
What you should know
Using the Elevator activities, you can see which cardholders or credentials
accessed which elevators and floors, for a given time period. You
also can search for access denied events at an elevator, to see who
tried to access a floor they did not have permission to enter.
To investigate elevator events:
- From the home page, open the Elevator activities task.
-
Set up the query filters for your report. Choose one or more of
the following filters:
Cardholders:
Restrict the search to certain
cardholders.
Credential:
Restrict the search to specific
credentials.
Custom fields:
Restrict the search to a predefined custom
field for the entity. This filter only appears if custom fields are
defined for the entity, and if the custom field was made visible to you
when it was created or last configured.
Elevators:
Select the elevators to investigate.
Events:
Select the events of interest. The event types
available depend on the task you are using.
Event
timestamp:
Define the time range for the query. The
range can be defined for a specific period or for global time units,
such as the previous week or the previous month.
