Time Window Definitions - Honeywell VISTA-128BPT Installation And Setup Manual

Time-Driven Events
The system can automatically activate and de-activate relays at predetermined times to turn lights or other devices
on and off. The Time-Driven events can be activated at different times in relation to a time window:
•
At the beginning of a time window
•
At the end of a time window
•
During a time window (on at beginning of
window, off at end)
•
At both the beginning and end of the time
window (e.g., to sound a buzzer at the
beginning and end of a coffee break)
•
Random time at the start of the time window
(occurs within 30 minutes after the start of the
time window)

Time Window Definitions

Scheduled events are based on time windows, (periods of time) during which an event may take place. The system
supports up to 20 time windows, each defined by a "Start" time and a "Stop" time.
The windows are shared by all eight partitions, and are used when programming the various schedules (open/close,
limitation of access), as well as for Time-Driven event control.
Scheduling Example
A store that has the following hours:
Monday to Friday
Saturday
Sunday
Holidays
The owner desires the following time windows to allow time for employees to arm or disarm the system:
Monday to Friday
Saturday
Sunday & Holidays
For this schedule, the four time windows need to be programmed:
Window Start
1 8am
2 9am
3
4pm
4 6pm
Using the #80 Menu Mode, the installer can program open/close schedules by assigning a time window to a day of
the week (windows are entered as 2-digit entries)
NOTE: 00 is entered for those days on which the store is closed.
Employees can arm and disarm the system, when programmed, within the open and close time windows without
causing a report to be sent to the central station (reporting by exception, field 2∗09). The system can be
programmed to automatically arm/disarm in case an employee fails to arm/disarm manually (auto-arm/auto-
disarm).

minutes after the start of the time window and ends

The system can perform the same actions on a daily
basis, or can perform an action only once (e.g., turn
on the porch light this Wednesday at 8:00 PM).
The system also provides up to 20 programmable
"timers" available to the end user for the purpose of
activating output devices at preset times and days.
