12.1 Test-Driving the Security Panel Application

Application Requirements A lab wants to install a security panel outside a laboratory room. Only authorized personnel may enter the lab, using their security codes. The following are valid security codes (also called access codes) and the groups of employees they represent: Values Groups 1645–1689 Technicians 8345 Custodians 9998, 1006–1008 Scientists Once a security code is entered, access is either granted or denied. All access attempts are written to a window below the keypad. If access is granted, the date, time and group (scientists, custodians, etc.) are written to the window. If access is denied, the date, the time and a message, “Access Denied,” are written to the window. Furthermore, the user can enter any one-digit access code to summon a security guard for assistance. The date, the time and a message, “Restricted Access,” are then written to the window to indicate that the request has been received.
