How to import the TWIC Privacy Key from a TWIC card

The TPK is not currently used by OnGuard, but can be stored in the database for possible future use with TWIC biometric readers.
Follow the steps below to import the TPK from a TWIC card.
1) In System Administration, from the Administration menu, select Cardholder Options.
2) On the General Cardholder Options tab, click [Modify].

Note that OnGuard 2009 (version 6.3.249) does not require this setting to be selected to import the TPK.
