Guard Tour Introduction
Guard Tour Introduction
A Guard Tour consists of a series of Stops where a Guard checks in during security rounds. Each Guard Tour Stop is
monitored by a reader or by a security input that allows check-in by the Guard. To complete a Tour, a Guard must
check in at each specified Stop. Stops can consist of any combination of Doors, Elevators, and Inputs.
There are two types of Guard Tours:
■ Sequential. The Guard must check in at the Stops in the Guard Tour in sequence, according to the order
configured on the Guard Tour Editor Stops tab (StopIt).
■ Random. The Guard can check in at the Stops in the Guard Tour in any order.
For either type Guard Tour:
■ The Guard must check in at all the Tour Stops before the Tour is considered completed—unless the Tour is
canceled, either due to errors or by an Event Action or a Manual Action. (A canceled Tour is not considered
'completed')
■ The Tour has a minimum and maximum time of completion: a Guard must spend at least the minimum
amount of time walking the Tour, but no more than the maximum amount of time.
Sequential Tours
MI tour stops in a sequential tour require the configuration of minimum and maximum amounts of time that a
guard can take between stops. In addition, the minimum and maximum time for the first stop is used to determine if
a tour started early, late, or on time.
■ When a guard checks in at the first stop before the minimum stop time expires, this stop was reached early and
the tour was started early.
■ When a guard checks in at the first stop after the maximum time expires, this stop was reached late and the tour
was started late.
■ When the maximum stop time expires, but a guard has not yet checked in, the stop will indicate that it was not
reached on time.
Random Tours
Four stops in a random tour also require configuration of minimum and maximum amounts of time that the guard
can take between stops, but the settings apply to all the stops. The system still uses the minimum and maximum
time for the first stop to determine if the tour started early, late, or on time —as detailed in the preceding section on
sequential Tours.
Guard Tours in an Enterprise Environment
Guard Fours are 'local' objects. Consequently, in an Enterprise Environment, Tours can only be associated with a
particular SAS server. Along with other local objects, they can be edited and viewed on that SAS.
Guard Tours can be viewed on the MAS server, and if the associated SAS is online, they can also be edited on the
MAS.

Guard Tour Introduction
Guard Tour Activation
Guard Tours can be activated (started) by:
• Operator Action.
• Configured Event.
• Guard swiping at the Reader/Keypad of the Door or Elevator at the first Tour Stop.
Guard Tours can have any of the following statuses resulting from an Operator Action/Event Action:
• Activated- A Guard has been assigned to the tour and it has started.
• Suspended - An 'Active' Tour has been temporarily stopped.
• Resumed - A Suspended Tour has been re-activated.
• Canceled- An 'Active' Tour has been requested to stop. (An Active Tour that is 'disabled' is considered
'Canceled'.
Guard Tours cannot be edited while they are 'Enabled'.
NOTE

EFTA01225864
Tour Stop Consderations
Tour Stop Considerations
■ A Tour Stop can be configured to use a Door, Elevator, or Input as the monitoring device for the Stop.
Clearance for the Door or Elevator is not required unless the Guard
NOTE
is expected to use the Door/Elevator. (For more detail, see Rules
for Guards on Page 15.)
• Either In or Out type Doors can be specified. (The 'In'/'Out' designation indicates which Reader on the Door
is used —if the Door has two readers. A single Reader can be on either the 'In' or the 'Out' side.)
• A swipe at an unlocked Door is treated as though it was a valid swipe at a locked Door —on Controllers that
support this. (Currently only iSTARs with 6.1.0 firmware or higher support this feature.)
• An Elevator can be used with/without a corresponding Floor.
Only iSTAR and apC Doors/Elevators are supported as Tour
NOTE
Stops.
■ The same Door, Elevator, or Input can be used to monitor multiple Stops in the same Tour.
■ If Tour Stops are monitored by Doors or Elevators, those Stops can be assigned to multiple Guard Tours.
However, Doors or Elevators that initiate Guard Tours cannot be assigned as Tour Stops to other Guard Tours.
■ If Tour Stops are monitored by Inputs, those Stops cannot be assigned to multiple Guard Tours.
The Inputs must be enabled and also armed.
■ A Stop visited out of order in a sequential Tour is considered an error. (The next valid Stop in a sequential Tour
that has gotten out of order must be the Stop configured to follow the last valid Stop. In addition, the Stop visited
out of order must be re-visited in its correct order for the Tour to be considered 'Completed'.
For more information about Tour Stops, see How Stop Statuses Work for Random Tours on Page 36.
Duress Situations
Dual Inputs, Readers with a keypad, and Mag Stripe Readers (these Readers include Doors and Elevators) can be
configured to monitor for Duress.
■ For Inputs: Duress is indicated by another nearby Input.
■ For a Reader with a keypad: Duress is indicated by the Personnel PIN number plus one.
■ For a Mag Stripe Reader: Duress is indicated by a reverse swipe.

Rubs for Guards
Rules for Guards
■ To be assigned to a Tour as a Guard, a person must have a Personnel record in C•CURE 9000 and have the Can
Perform Guard Tour option selected. (For information, see the "Personnel General Tab" section in the "Personnel"
chapter in the C• CURE 9000 Personnel Configuration Guide.)
■ A Guard must have the requisite Clearance to access (enter/exit) Doors/Elevators configured as part of the Tour.
■ Some Stops, such as Door (In), Door (Out), Elevator, Input, and Input (Duress) that do
NOTE not require 'usage', do not require Clearances.
■ Other Stops that do require 'usage', such as Door (In Used), Door (Out Used), and
Elevator (Used), do require Clearances.
■ An individual Guard Tour can only be run by Personnel who not only have the Can Perform Guard Tour
option selected in their Personnel record, but are also listed on the Guard Tour Editor Guards tab. (For
information, see the Guard Tour Guards Tab on Page 64.)
If no Guards are listed on the preceding tab, the Tour cannot be run.
NOTE

Guard Tour Capacity Limitations
Guard Tour Capacity Limitations
The following limitations apply to C•CURE 9000 Guard Tours:
■ The maximum number of 'enabled' Guard Tours allowed in a C•CURE 9000 system is 200, while the maximum
number of Stops per Tour allowed is 100. The system displays a message when either limit has been reached.
■ The maximum number of simultaneous 'running' Guard Tours allowed is 50. Once that number has been
reached, no further Tours are permitted to start. The system notifies users that the limit has been reached in the
following ways, depending on how the Tour was being initiated.
If started:
• From a Dynamic View via the Start command, a message displays.
• By a Scheduled Event or a Guard's Card swipe at an initiating Reader, a message is logged.
■ 23 Hours, 59 Minutes is the maximum amount of time:
• A Guard Tour can take to complete.
• Between Guard Tours Stops.
• A Guard Tour can be suspended.
■ There is no limit to the number of Personnel who can be configured to act as Guards.
■ A maximum of 10 documents can be assigned to a Guard Tour.

EFTA01225867
Guard Tour Scheduling and Time Zones
Guard Tour Scheduling and Time Zones
Scheduling Guard Tours
Scheduling a Guard Tour means that:
■ A Tour is expected to start and end within a schedule. It does not mean a Tour will start on a schedule. (If you
want a Tour to start on a particular schedule, you can create an Event with the 'Guard Tour Start' Action that
activates on that schedule.)
■ One Guard is assigned to run the Tour within this particular schedule. (This Guard can only be someone listed
for that Tour on the Guards tab of the Guard Tour Editor —someone who has a Personnel record in C•CURE
9000 and the Can Perform Guard Tour option selected on the Personnel Editor General tab. For information, see
the "Personnel General Tab" section in the "Personnel" chapter in the C• CURE 9000 Personnel Configuration Guide.
The Guard Tour Scheduling Editor information is used to notify Guards when their selected Tours should run.The
scheduling does not prevent the assigned Guards from running Tours at other times.
• Their card swipe at the 1st stop can start the Tours outside the Schedule.
• In addition, Guards not assigned to a Tour on the Scheduling Editor can still run the tour.
The system checks once an hour to see which Schedules associated with inactive Tours are about to become active in
the next hour. Email notifications are then sent to the Guards —if the Notify Guard... option is selected —and to the
Additional Notifications group of personnel —if any is specified. The email includes the time frame in which the
Tour is expected to be run (the schedule start and end times), as well as any documents attached to the Tour.
When a Schedule associated with one or more Guard Tours becomes active, the system logs a Journal Message
indicating that each Tour on that Schedule is due to be run. The message also indicates when the Tour must be
completed (the end date/time of the Schedule). The message appears on the Monitoring Station Activity Viewer as
well.
When a Schedule associated with one or more Guard Tours becomes inactive, the system marks any Tours that
failed to start with the "Failed to Start"status and logs a Journal Message for each tour that has not completed. (You
can also configure an Event on the Guard Tour triggers tab to activate when a Tour "Fails to start".) The system also
marks any Tours that are running as "Not Completed On Time.
Time Zones
Guard Tours do not have assigned Time Zones. However, they do have Tour Stops which are constructed of
devices —such as Doors, Elevators, and Inputs —that have related Time Zones. Consequently, the Schedules used by
Guard Tours, either when a Guard's card swipe at a Reader at a Door or Elevator starts a Schedule, or when Guards
are scheduled to run tours, should be respected in the Time Zone of the devices.
The Time Zone of the device at the first Stop is the Time Zone used for Schedules related to the Tour. When Tour
Stops whose Time Zone does not match the Time Zone of the first Stop are added to the Tour, the Schedule uses the
Time Zone of the first Stop. (The system displays a warning message.)

Using Guard Tours
Using Guard Tours
Guard Tour functionality is flexible and consequently can be utilized in several different ways. You can use Guard
Tours in the way best suited to your company or institution's needs.
This section presents three example scenarios for using the Guard Tour feature. You can use any combination of
these scenarios, as well as others appropriate for your site. You do not need to configure each of your Tours in the
same way.
1. An entirely manual usage - Manual Guard Tours on Page 18.
2. Configuring Tours so Guards are expected to run them at specific times and Reports can be generated to check
Tour status - Scheduled Guard Tours on Page 19.
3. A fully automatic setup where Tours are started automatically by the system and Reports are used to document
the status of those Tours - see Automatically Started Guard Tours on Page 21.
In addition, different ways of tracking Tour issues are detailed in a section on Guard Tour Error handling - see
Guard Tour Error Handling, Triggers, and Event Activation on Page 23.
Manual Guard Tours
In the 'Manual' method —the least common, but the easiest to configure, system Operators tell Guards when they
should run Guard Tours.
Configuring Manual Guard Tours
You will probably configure most Manual Tours to be run sequentially—the Guard has to visit each Stop in the
specified order. However, you have two other options. You could also configure the Tour as:
■ A random Tour - the Guard can visit the Stops in any sequence he/she prefers.
■ A sequential Tour - but configured so certain Guards can visit the Stops in any sequence (like a random Tour).
Since you are starting these Tours manually, configure the first Stop's minimum time as zero (0). (This will prevent
the Tour from getting a "Started Early" error.)
On the other hand, if you plan to start a Tour and tell the Guard to run it while expecting he/she to perform a Tour-
related and time-consuming task before reaching the first Stop, configure a minimum time for the first Stop.
Example:
If the Tour involves a five-minute walk at the start that is not covered by an actual Stop, specify a five-minute
minimum time for the first Stop. If the Guard then takes fewer than five minutes, the Tour will enter the "Started
Early" state. This might require a discussion with the Guard about the reason for the status. Did the five-minute
walk not take place? Why? Or did the walk take less time than expected?
For information on how to configure Guard Tours, see Chapter 2, Configuring a Guard Tour and Chapter 3, Guard
Tour Editor. You do not need to use the Guard Tour Scheduling dialog box to configure Guard Tours manually.
18 Chapter1 C•CURE 9000 Guard Tours Guide
EFTA01225869
Using Guard Tours
Running Manual Guard Tours
You have two options for running these Tours:
■ Start the Tour manually from the Guard Tour Dynamic View. (See Using the Guard Tour List Context Menu on
Page 30.)
■ Configure a card swipe at the first Stop to start the Tour, so the system initiates the Tour when the Guard visits
that first Stop. (See Guard Tour Stops Tab on Page 43.)
However the Tour is started, the system creates a journal record and displays it on the Monitoring Station Activity
viewer.
Reporting for Manual Guard Tours
You can run the pre-defined Guard Tour Reports to check which Tours ran, their current status, and whether or not
they had errors, etc. (For information on these Reports, see "Appendix A, Pre-defined Reports, Queries, and Views" in
the C•CURE 9000 Data Views Guide.)
Scheduled Guard Tours
In the Scheduled' method, a Tour is configured to be run at some appointed time. You can configure Guard Tour
Schedules to tightly restrict a Guard's time allowance for the Tour or alternatively to allow a greater span of time for
a Guard to use during the Tour. In addition, you can control the Tour by combining the following factors in different
ways:
■ When the Tour starts.
■ How quickly a Guard must reach specific Stops and how much time can be spent at each Stop (Min Time/Max
Time).
■ How much time the entire Tour can take.
■ How long the Tour can remain suspended at any point in time.
Configuring Scheduled Guard Tours
As with Manual Guard Tours, you will configure most Scheduled Tours to be run sequentially—the Guard has to
visit each Stop in the specified order. However, you have two other options. You could also configure the Tour as:
■ A random Tour—the Guard can visit the Stops in any sequence he/she prefers.
■ A sequential Tour- but configured so certain Guards can visit the Stops in any sequence (like a random Tour).
Most Scheduled Tours will probably be started when a Guard visits the first Stop of the Tour. Therefore,
configure the first Stop's minimum time as zero (0) to prevent the Tour from getting a "Started Early" error.
It is not a requirement that Scheduled Tours be started in the preceding manner. You can
NOTE
still start such Tours manually from the Guard Tour Dynamic View. (See Using the
Guard Tour List Context Menu on Page 30.)
Be aware, however, that a Tour that is started manually outside the configured Schedule
does not count towards the scheduled expectation of running this Tour.
C•CURE 9000 Guard Tours Guide Chapter 1 19
EFTA01225870
Using Guard Tours
■ You must also use the Guard Tour Scheduling dialog box to complete the configuration of scheduled Guard
Tours.
For information on how to configure Guard Tours, see Chapter 2, Configuring a Guard Tour, Chapter 3, Guard Tour
Editor, and Chapter 4, Guard Tour Scheduling Editor.
Notifications for Scheduled Guard Tours
The system includes several notification options for Scheduled Guard Tours. Once an hour, the system looks ahead
an hour and makes note of any Tours expected to start in that time period.
When the system first starts up, it performs the look-ahead and notifications for the next
NOTE
hour at start time—even if it is not currently the top of the hour.
For each Tour expected to start, the system sends an email to the Guard assigned to run that Tour ( if the Notify
Guard of Scheduled Tour option is selected), and optionally to the Group of Personnel specified in the Additional
Notifications field. (See Guard Tour Scheduling Editor on Page 76.)
For email notification to work, the Guard and any additional personnel listed must have valid Email addresses on
their Personnel records; in addition, the system must be properly configured to connect to an Email server. For
information, see:
■ "Personnel General Tab" and "Setting an Email Address" in the Personnel chapter in the C•CURE 9000 Personnel
Configuration Guide.
■ "Setting Up Email for C•CURE 9000" in the C•CURE 9000 System Maintenance Guide.
The email specifies that the Guard is expected to run the named Tour between the time the Schedule activates and
the time it goes inactive—presented as Start and Stop times.
Example:
The email might read: Guard Tour 'Front' is scheduled to be run between 6:00 PM and 7:00 PM for Guard: John
Smith.
The subject of the email would display: Guard Tour 'Front' should start in the next hour.
The email would include any documents configured as attachments for this Guard Tour.
You can also specify that a Guard listed on a Tour Schedule not be sent email. (Maybe the
NOTE
Guard gets notified of the Tour in another way and does not want extra email.)
Other Notifications for Scheduled Guard Tours
For various reasons, you might want notifications, outside of the Guard Tour functionality, sent to entirely different
Personnel. You can do this by creating an Event that sends an email or emails a Report, and then scheduling that
Event to run periodically.
20 Chapter1 C•CURE 9000 Guard Tours Guide
EFTA01225871
Using Guard Tours
Running Scheduled Guard Tours
You have the following options for running these Tours:
■ Start the Tour manually from the Guard Tour Dynamic View. (See Using the Guard Tour List Context Menu on
Page 30.)
Or -
• Configure a card swipe at the first Stop to start the Tour, so the system initiates the Tour when the Guard visits
that first Stop. (See Guard Tour Stops Tab on Page 43.)
■ Additionally, schedule an Event to start a Tour. (For information, see Automatically Started Guard Tours on Page
21.)
However the Tour is started, it must be started while the Schedule for the Tour is active—or it will not count towards
the Scheduling record.. It must also be completed before the Schedule goes inactive. Consequently, with Scheduled
Guard Tours, both the Activation time of a schedule as well as the subsequent Inactivation time are most important.
Guard Tour Scheduling Results
When Guard Tours are scheduled in this manner, the system performs some extra operations to help track the Tours.
Whenever a Schedule for one or more Tours goes active, the system 'initializes' the Tour, resetting the various Tour
statuses. It does not do this, however, if the Tour is currently running.
More importantly, when such a Schedule goes inactive, the system checks every Tour. Any such Tours still running
have their state changed to "Not Completed On Time" —which is entered in the Journal.
This is not considered a Guard Tour error, and consequently does not cancel the Tour —
NOTE
even if the Cancel Guard Tour on Error option is configured.
Any of these Tours that did not start in the scheduled time have their state changed to "Failed To Start" —also
entered in the Journal.
The preceding operations enable the running of Reports that indicate which Tours ran as scheduled, which did not
run, and which ran, but failed to complete on time.
Reporting for Scheduled Guard Tours
You can run the pre-defined Guard Tour Reports to check which Tours ran, their current status,and whether or not
they had errors, etc. (For information on these Reports, see "Appendix A, Pre-defined Reports Queries, and Views" in
the C• CURE 9000 Data Views Guide.)
Automatically Started Guard Tours
In the 'Automatically Started' method, a Tour is started on a Schedule using Event Scheduling. The Tours always
start on time (when the Event activates), and the timing begins instantly. This might be the best method to use if you
cannot start your Tours by a card swipe at a Reader (the first Stop does not have a Reader).
C•CURE 9000 Guard Tours Guide Chapter! 21
EFTA01225872
Using Guard Tours
Configuring Automatically Started Guard Tours
To create automatically started Tours, you configure scheduled Events with the Guard Tour Start Action. (See "Event
Editor" in the C•CURE 9000 Software Configuration Guide.)
The system will refuse to start a Guard Tour if the:
NOTE
■ Tour is already running.
• tour configuration is no longer valid.
■ Specified Guard is no longer valid.
You can optionally configure Guard Tour Scheduling for Automatically Started Guard Tours.
For information on how to configure Guard Tours, see Chapter 2, Configuring a Guard Tour, Chapter 3, Guard Tour
Editor, and Chapter 4, Guard Tour Scheduling Editor.
Notifications for Automatically Started Guard Tours
When a Tour is started automatically by the Event becoming active, the Event is entered in the Journal, as usual.
Without using the Guard Tour Scheduling Editor there is no automated notification to the Guard, but an Operator
looking at the Activity Viewer or Guard Tours Dynamic View can see that the Tour has been started.
If you did configure Guard Tour Scheduling for your Automatically Started Guard Tours, you benefit from the
functionality described in Scheduled Guard Tours on Page 19 such as notifications and Journal entries.
In addition, even without having scheduling configured, you can still create separate Events to send notifications.
You can also track Tours that fail to complete on time by checking for Tours "Completed Late" in the Journal or the
Activity Viewer.
Reporting for Automatically Started Guard Tours
You can run the pre-defined Guard Tour Reports to check which Tours ran, their current status,and whether or not
they had errors, etc. If you configured Guard Tour Scheduling, you can also run Reports indicating which Tours ran
as scheduled, which did not, and which ran, but failed to complete on time. If you did not configure Guard Tour
Scheduling, you can still find that information by running Report on Tours that time out (equivalent to Tours "Not
Completed On Time") and Tours whose first Stop times out (roughly equivalent to "Failed to Start").

Guard Tour Error Handling. Triggers. and Event Activation
Guard Tour Error Handling, Triggers, and Event Activation
You can configure Guard Tours to include:
■ Error handling that immediately cancels the Tour if any errors occur during execution of the Thur.
■ Triggers that activate or pulse Events, send Emails, or run Reports.
Error Handling
Global Error handling is set by selecting the Cancel Guard Tour on error option. (See the Guard Tour Options Tab
on Page 53. For information on handling specific errors separately, see Triggers on Page 23.)
When such an error occurs, the Tour's Monitoring State is set to "Canceled Due to Error", and the Tour's "Error
Occurred" property is set to 'true'. You could configure either of these to be used with a trigger that causes additional
activity to occur :
Example:
Emailing the Guard.
Activating an Event Action that sets off an alarm.
There are several possible errors that can occur during the execution of a Guard Tour:
■ A Stop was reached out of sequence in a sequential Tour.
■ A Stop was reached before the minimum amount of time for that Stop elapsed.
• If this is the first Stop in the Tour, the error is the Tour "Started Early".
• For any other Stop, the error is the Stop "Checked in Early".
■ A Stop was reached after the maximum amount of time for that Stop elapsed.
• If this is the first Stop in the Tour, the error is the Tour "Started Late".
• For any other Stop, the error is the Stop "Checked in Late.
■ A Tour was "Suspended Too Long".
■ The Tour "Completed Early" (before the minimum Tour time elapsed).
■ The Tour "Completed Late (after the Tour timed out).
Triggers
Canceling the Guard Tours on the occurrence of any and all errors may be too extreme for your company's situation.
You may want to customize what the system does, depending on the type of error. You can achieve this by
configuring Triggers for the Guard Tour and/or its Tour Stops.
Triggers can activate Events, send emails, or run Reports:
■ If a sequential Tour is taken out of sequence; any Tour is Completed sooner or later than configured (a Guard
Tour error), started late, suspended for too long a time, or in 'duress' (a Stop encountered a duress situation); or a
Tour Stop is reached sooner or later than configured (a Guard Tour error).
■ When a Tour completes.
(See Guard Tour Stop Triggers Dialog Box on Page 49 and Guard Tour Triggers Tab on Page 56.)

Guard Tour Error Handling, Triggers, and Event Activation
These two types of Trigger give you great control over error handling, including the ability to cancel the Guard Tour
only for certain errors. Triggers also give you the ability to handle initialization and post-tour functionality.
Example:
You can configure Triggers to arm all of your Inputs at the start of the Tour ("Tour Running" property= true) and
disarm the Inputs at the end ("Tour Running" property=false).

EFTA01225886
Viewing Guard Tour Details
How Stop Statuses Work for Random Tours
• In a sequential Tour when a Guard has visited Stop 1 but is late getting to the next Stop, the system knows:
• The Guard is late.
• The next Stop is Stop 2.
Consequently Stop 2 receives the Stop Status: Stop Not Reached on Time.
• In a random Tour when a guard has visited Stop 5 as the first Stop, for example, but is late getting to the next
Stop, the system only knows:
• The Guard is late.
• The system does not know which Stop the Guard is late for.
Consequently the system looks over the Stops in the random Tour, finds the first Stop the Guard has not yet
visited, and gives it the Status: Stop Not Reached on Time. For this example, Stop 1 receives the Status: Stop
Not Reached on Time, although the system does not know if this is the Stop the Guard is actually heading for.
• For that sequential Tour, when the Guard finally does reach Stop 2, its Stop Status changes to Checked In Late.
• For the random Tour, when the Guard finally reaches his/her next Stop, in this case Stop 3, that Stop receives a
Status of Checked In Late. In addition, since the system now knows which Stop the Guard was actually late
reaching, the Stop Status of Stop 1 reverts from Stop Not Reached on Time to None.
