Adding Key Systems

 

1. Go to the Key Systems screen and either select one of the preloaded Schlage or Falcon system types, or click the Add button to add a new one.

2. If you're adding a new key system, on the Manufacturer's System field look up (Binoculars button) the system that the new key system is based upon.

3. Type in the Client (Key System Name), TMK (Top Master Key Bitting), TMK Symbol (i.e., GGM, A), and Control Key(s) (Bitting(s)) only if the system is SFIC. Separate multiple Control Key bittings with commas.

4. If you've selected one of the preloaded system types, click on the Edit button and change the fields in Step 3 to match your system's information.

5. Click the Save button to store the basic information.

 

Note: If you're importing an Allegion factory system, then using the import wizard will add the information. You will only need to name the Key System on the import screen, or select one you've already added.
