Upgrading of the card+code entrance system

The hospital is implementing a new card reader system for entering locked premises. To gain access through a door which has been fitted with the new system you will not have to swipe your card and enter a code but just hold your card to the reader, which will then open the door for you.

The implementation has already started, but thankfully at the other end of the hospital, so we will probably not be affected until autumn. However, I need to collect information about your cards already now in order to make the transition as smooth as possible. Please tell me at the latest on the 15th of July if you have:


a) a SIS-marked card. You'll find the SIS-mark to the left on your card.

b) an OSIS-card (similar to the SIS card but without the SIS-mark). Students at KI will at some point be given this type of card by their institution, I've been told.


I will send in lists with the holders of SIS/OSIS-cards to central management, who will then enter your card into the system.

All others have to use a K-badge for access (you don't need to check back with me if that is what you have). Unfortunately, the old K-badges will not work with the new system, so you will have to have a new badge made for you. The machine to produce such badges is not installed yet, so we will have to wait until autumn to get you set up within the new access system.
