This section describes what the administrator does when managing Programmer content remotely through Hot Spot.

1. Make the necessary changes, such as blocklisting lost keys or changing access rights, to offline locks on iLOQ Manager software.

   See Common Administration Tasks.

2. Just order the lock programming tasks.
3. Inform the remote site on the pending programming tasks.

   You can send a task queue to the remote site personnel as follows:

   1. Select the Net Bridge of the remote site.

   2. Right-click to select Print > Task list for remote load station.

   3. Select Print from selected lines.

   4. A preview of the task queue is opened.

   5. Select PDF to save as PDF and send the list as email to the remote site.

   6. If necessary, you can also make a PDF file of the floor plan and send it as email to the remote site.

      See Working with Floor Plans.

4. You can observe the work progress by monitoring the programming states of the locks.

   The states are:

   • Transferred for programming — The programming tasks have been transferred to the Programmer.
   • Programmed — The programming tasks have been done.

This section describes what the person at the remote site does when re-programming locks.

1. Find the Programmer and ensure that the Token is in place.
2. Switch on the Programmer.
3. Insert the programming cable into the Programming Hot Spot.
4. The USB light blinks during data communication.
5. The communication ends when the STATUS light is illuminated constant orange, indicating that the Programmer has tasks.
6. Remove the cable from the Programming Hot Spot.
7. Switch on the Programmer.
8. Re-program the defined locks by inserting the programming cable into the locks, and wait until you see the green STATUS light.
9. Insert the programming cable into the Programming Hot Spot.
10. The USB light blinks during data communication.
11. The communication ends when the STATUS light is illuminated constant green, indicating that the Programmer has no tasks.

    If the STATUS light is:

    • Orange — There are still programming tasks in the Programmer, that is, there are one or more programming tasks waiting to be done.
    • Red — There is an error. Retry by inserting the programming cable into the Programming Hot Spot.
    • Green — The Programmer has no tasks.
12. Remove the cable.

This section describes what the administrator does when remotely managing key access rights through a Programming Hot Spot.

1. Make the necessary changes, such as changing access rights or time limitations, to a key on iLOQ Manager software.

   See Common Administration Tasks.

2. Just order the key programming task.

   If you want to postpone the change availability, select Order and postpone programming on Hot Spot, and set the date and time for the start of availability.

   Postponing the change availability requires that the Postponed Hot spot key update in use setting is in use.

3. Inform the key owner to visit a Key Programming Hot Spot and update the key by inserting the key.
4. You can observe the work progress by monitoring the programming state of the key.

   The states are:

   • Ordered — The programming task is pending.
   • Programmed — The key has been updated.

This section describes what the key owner at the remote site does when re-programming a key.

1. Insert the key into the Hot Spot.
2. The key symbol on the Hot Spot illuminates orange.
3. The key symbol on the Hot Spot turns green.

   If the key symbol on the Hot Spot:

   • Turns red, the update has failed. Try again.
   • Turns off, there is no update task for the key on the server.
4. Remove the key from the Hot Spot.

Users are persons who have the rights to use iLOQ Manager.

Different users may have different usage rights in the system. You can, for example, distribute system administration by allowing one user to order, that is, approve, programming changes to locks and keys. Another user, for its part, can carry out previously ordered programming tasks, but cannot modify the content of these programming tasks.

A person using a key is not necessarily a user in the system. Key users are called persons in the system.

This section describes how to browse users on iLOQ Manager.

1. Select Administration > Browse users.

   

    
2. The users are shown in the grid view.

   The columns are:

   • User ID — This column contains the user ID of the user.
   • Last name — This column contains the last name of the user.
   • First name — This column contains the first name of the user.
   • Company/Department — This column contains the name of the company or department where the user works at.
   • Title — This column contains the title of the user.
   • Contact information — This column contains the contact information of the user.

   • Description — This column contains a description of the person.
   • Editable — The check box in this status column indicates whether the information of the person is editable on not.

This section describes how to view the properties of users on iLOQ Manager.

1. Select Administration > Browse users.

   

    
2. The users are shown in the grid view. For more information on an individual user, double-click the user.

   User-specific details are, by tabs:

   • Basic information — The Basic information tab contains the basic information on the selected user. The columns are described in section Browsing Persons.
   • User ID — The User IDtab contains information on the user as follows:
     • Usage right — This column lists the usage rights that the user ID has.
     • Source — This column contains the user ID and token combinations the user has. The user does not necessarily have any tokens, in which case the user ID only is listed in this column.
   • Zones — The Zones tab contains information on the zones that the user has, if any.
   • Roles — The Roles tab contains information on the person's roles. See Person Roles.
   • Keys — The Keys tab contains information on the person's keys. The columns are described in section Browsing Keys.
   • Access rights to locks — The Access rights to locks tab contains information on the person's access rights to locks.
3. When done, press the Close button.

There are two ways to add users:

• Add a user ID with a token. In this case, the user must login to the system with a token. Only with a token, the user can have full access rights to the system. This is the recommended method to add users. This results in a higher security level.
• Add a user ID. In this case, the user can login to the system without a token, and carry out, for example, planning tasks. However, the user cannot order or program tasks.

This section describes how to add a user ID with a token to iLOQ Locking System.

1. Select Administration > Browse users.

5. Depending on the choice you made in the previous step, proceed as follows:
   • Select the person for whom you want to add the user ID, if you selected Add a user ID for a person in the previous step.
   • Enter the first and last name of the new person, if you selected Add a new person with a user ID in the previous step.
6. Select Next.
7. Select a token for the user in the Token drop-down menu.
8. Select Next.
