What is Optional Card Offset?

What is Optional Card Offset?
The Optional Card Offset is a feature in Brivo Access that exists if the internal and external (printed) card number are different. This is rarely used but comes up on high security sites. The internal number is part of the card’s embedded value. The internal number and external number are often the same, but in some cases, they are offset.
For example, you can have a series of 100 cards in which the external numbers are 3001-3100 and the internal numbers are 5001-5100.
