Open/Close Schedules Definitions - Honeywell VISTA-128BPT Installation And Setup Manual

The owner desires the following time windows to allow time for employees to arm or disarm the system:
Monday to Friday Open (disarm)
Close (arm)
Saturday Open (disarm)
Close (arm)
Sunday & Holidays Closed
For this schedule, the four time windows need to be programmed:
Window Start Stop
1 8am 9am
2 9am 10am
3 4pm 4:30pm
4 6pm 6:30pm
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).

Open/Close Schedules Definitions

General
The open/close scheduling is controlled by one of three schedules. Each schedule consists of one time window for
openings and one time window for closings.
There are three types of schedules available: Daily, Holiday, and Temporary.
Daily Schedule
Each partition can have one daily schedule consisting of one opening window and one closing window per day.
Holiday Schedule
A holiday schedule overrides the regular daily schedule on selected holidays throughout the year.
The opening and closing windows are programmed in the daily schedule, but the holidays themselves are defined in
Holiday Schedule Programming in the #80 Menu Mode.
Temporary Schedule
The temporary schedule provides a method for the end user to override the daily and holiday schedules. It consists of one
opening window and one closing window for each day of the week. The schedule takes effect for up to one week, after
which it is automatically deactivated.
This schedule is programmed using the #81 Temporary Schedule Menu Mode.
Additional Schedules
Additional opening and closing schedules can be programmed using the Time-Driven Event Programming. For example,
a schedule for normal store openings/closings can be programmed with a daily open/close schedule, and another
open/close schedule for a lunch hour can be programmed using the Time-Driven event schedule programming.
Refer to "Time-Driven Events" later in this section for detailed information.
Open/Close Reports by Exception
The system can help reduce communication traffic to the central station by using the Open/Close Reports by Exception
feature. The Open/Close by Exception option suppresses these reports from being sent to the central station if an arm or
disarm is done within the expected time window. Reports are only sent if the arm or disarm occurs outside the assigned
time window.
The system keeps a record of all openings/closings in its event log.
If a disarming occurs during a closing window (for example, a person who arms the system forgets something and has to
re-enter), the Opening report (although outside of the opening window) will not be sent (as long as that disarming occurs
within the closing window).
This option is programmed in partition-specific program field 2∗09.
