• Shop keys should be signed out by a member who has not been issued one

BuzzCard Access (SCC, Shop, 575 14th Common Areas)

575 14th Street is active on the new S2 access control system as of January 2021. Anyone needing door access must have a BuzzCard issued in 2015 or newer (blue banner on the front, no barcode). Anyone with an old BuzzCard can visit the BuzzCard Center and get a new card for free upon surrendering their old one.

Access for members is granted to one of two "access packages". Individuals should never be in both.

• 575F-GRP SCC without RoboJackets
  • Access to all SCC areas, exterior building doors, parking gate, etc.
  • Use this one for general members
• 575F-GRP SCC with RoboJackets
  • All listed above, plus access to the RoboJackets shop
  • Use this one for Core or anyone else needing access to the shop and all other SCC areas

Compile one CSV per package (using my.robojackets.org) with a list of GTIDs to be added.

To compile a list of GTIDs, go to https://my.robojackets.org/nova/resources/users

There you should have the option to "Export BuzzCard Access List".

 

File Access List Button

The 2 options for Core and General are presorted, so there is no work to be done there.

If you do not see the option to "Export BuzzCard Access List", contact RJ IT to request access to the command.

Names do not need to included in the CSV, just GTIDs, per guidance from BuzzCard staff 01/2021.

• Email facilities@me.gatech.edu the above CSVs, explaining which CSV is for which access package.
• CC Facility Advisor Dr.Hammond on the email, who should then to the email saying "Approved"
• Only CC Dr.C if there is an issue with the process that Dr.Hammond cannot solve
• ME Facilities will only grant access once approval is received from Dr. Hammond.
