There are 2 different mechanisms that decide if a visitor has access to a reader:

  1. The normal access rights that the visitor can receive via the card group settings in the visitor
    dialog.

  2. When the visitor is accompanied by a host he automatically receives the access rights of the host
    (on that door). Those rights are only valid in a timeframe (x time before and y time after the host
    has presented his card to a reader). This means that the visitor has only access to a door, in a
    small-time frame before and/or after the host has presented his card.

When visitors are accompanied by a host, additional authentication methods (like pin code) are not required.

is valid.
