[All_jlau] JLab Building Access System Upgrade - UPDATE

Logistics department./*_

To All Jefferson Lab ID Badge Holders:

The upgrade to Jefferson Lab's building and controlled area access 
system continues.

The installation process began June 23 and is scheduled to be completed 
in mid-August. First on the schedule after the Fourth of July holiday 
will be CEBAF Center, Building 12. Sections of CEBAF Center will be 
handled at a time. On July 5-6, the doors to the A and B Wings of CEBAF 
Center will be out-of-service for card-reader change out. During that 
time, please use the main CEBAF Center entrance. (See the schedule below 
for the remainder of the schedule.)

Known as the Central Alarm Notification System, or CANS, the system 
provides each member of the Jefferson Lab community with a badge that 
ties together access control, safety and training. The system also 
integrates with fire alarm systems and video surveillance. Your current 
Jefferson Lab ID badge will continue to function with the new system.

The new system is being rolled out one building, one section of a 
building, or one area at a time. A building or area will experience an 
outage in CANS when it is being updated.

Signs will be posted to direct you to working access points when an 
installation is underway in a given building or area.

If a fire alarm is activated during the changeover, the doors will 
function as they normally would function - all doors could be used to exit.

Once installation is completed, the only visible change will be new card 
reader or "swipe" boxes. To gain access to a building or 
controlled-access area, you will continue to swipe your badge over the box.

The new system is designed to provide enhanced safety of individuals and 
security of facilities, while being easier to maintain and allowing for 
future upgrades.


For concerns or problems, contact Dave Kausch, the project SOTR.

The _anticipated_ schedule for installation is as follows:

Thank you very much for your patience while this upgrade takes place.  
Wishing you a safe and enjoyable holiday weekend.
