The entry and exit counting group is used to group the doors of certain region. You can set some doors as the region border. Only the persons accessing these doors are calculated, and other doors inside the region are ignored. By grouping these doors, the system provides counting functions based on the entry and exit records on these doors. With this function, you can know who enters/exits this region and how many persons still stay in this region. This is available for certain emergency scene. For example, during a fire escape, the number of the stayed persons and name list are required for rescue.
