  1. Introduction:
    • Welcome to the PDK system tutorial on adding groups and rules. In this video, we'll show you how to set up groups and configure rules to manage access control efficiently.
  2. Accessing the Groups Section:
    • Log in to your PDK software and navigate to the 'Groups' section.
    • Here, you can see a list of existing groups and options to add, edit, or delete groups.
  3. Creating a New Group:
    • Click on 'Add Group' to create a new group.
    • Give the group a name that reflects its purpose, such as 'Employees', 'Managers', or 'Visitors'.
    • Add a description if necessary to provide more context about the group's role.
  4. Assigning Users to the Group:
    • In the group creation window, select the users you want to add to this group.
    • You can search for users by name or browse through the user list to select multiple users at once.
  5. Configuring Group Permissions:
    • After adding users, configure the permissions for the group.
    • Specify the doors and areas the group members should have access to.
    • Set the time schedules during which the group members are allowed access. You can create custom schedules based on your organization's needs.
  6. Creating Rules for the Group:
    • Navigate to the 'Rules' section in the PDK software.
    • Click on 'Add Rule' to create a new rule for the group.
    • Define the rule by specifying conditions and actions. For example, you can set a rule to restrict access during certain hours or to send notifications when specific doors are accessed.
  7. Applying Rules to the Group:
    • In the rule configuration window, select the group to which you want to apply the rule.
    • Save the rule to apply it to the group members.
  8. Managing and Editing Groups and Rules:
    • To edit an existing group, go back to the 'Groups' section and select the group you want to modify.
    • Update the group details, add or remove users, and adjust permissions as needed.
    • Similarly, you can edit or delete rules in the 'Rules' section to ensure they remain relevant and effective.
