Security Forces Automated Check-in System (SFACS)
Anyone with a valid CAC or DoD ID can request visitor, special event and long-term parking passes in person or online through the Security Forces Automated Check-in System (SFACS). (CAC-enabled device required).

ID holders without computer access can request passes using telephonic sponsorship by registering up to three phone numbers, to include dependents, at the provided link or by visiting the Dixon Visitor Center.

Whether submitted online or over the phone, visitors must be the ones to pick up approved passes.

Visitor passes can also be processed in person during business hours.

The Shiloh entrance uses an automated gate system called Scott Pass (using a PIN) and Scott Pass 2.0 (using facial recognition). CAC, retiree, dependent and military ID holders can apply to use the systems by registering at the Dixon Visitor Center. The systems are only operational in marked lanes at the following times:

Mon-Fri: 9 a.m. to 9 p.m.
Sat-Sun: 6 a.m. to 9 p.m.

Scott Pass: Lanes 2 & 3
Scott Pass 2.0: Lane 4
**Yellow lights indicate lanes as operational**

During these hours, the three right lanes marked with signs will be accepting Scott Pass users only and non-registered users will be turned around. As a reminder, these lanes are open for normal traffic outside of these hours.
**No yellow lights indicate lanes as non-operational**
