Device Usage

The
Device Usage
field helps Zentra know which doors to prioritize when adding credentials. This section doesn’t impact device functionality or settings.
Currently when this feature is enabled, BLOCKS are no longer generated during this process. Wireless devices will continue to get their updates during a check in, or from a BLE Sync.
Devices that existed in the system prior to the addition of this field will have
unknown
usage.

  6. Other

This priority can be edited per credential. See no-tour sync for more information.
