Which one of the following is not a function of Personnel Access Control System ?

A Personnel Access Control System (PACS) is an automated security framework used to manage and monitor entry into restricted areas. In technical security standards, the operational cycle of such a system consists of three primary functional stages:

• Interrogation: This is the technical process where the reader (often called an interrogator) scans or communicates with a credential, such as an RFID card or biometric data, to retrieve identity information.
• Decision: The system's controller processes the retrieved data against a pre-defined database to determine if the individual has the authorization to enter.
• Response: The system executes an action based on the decision, such as activating an electromagnetic lock to open a door or logging a denied entry attempt.

While Identity Cards are the credentials used by the system, their physical preparation or printing is an administrative enrollment task and is not considered a functional step in the system's automated operational cycle.
