    Wi-Fi, WiMAX, cellular, or data radios. The System 3000 (Figure 1.1) is comprised of the Time Clock (TC  -   3 000), Local Area Network Gateway (LANG  -   3 000) and Data Link PROfessional software (DLPRO 3000) running on a host computer. The DLPRO 3000 software allows communication with up to two hundred fifty-five (255) network gateways.
  • Page 7: 000 Programmable Time Clock

    The TC  -   3 000 is typically programmed from the host computer using the DLPRO 3000 software. It can also be programmed from its associated LANG or directly at the clock using the keypad on the front of the clock.

    3.2 ENTERING DATA FOR LANG - 3000s Open DLPRO 3000 by navigating to the program from the Start Button. The DLPRO Main Menu displays as shown in Figure 3.2.1. The configuration information is entered for each LANG  -   3 000 in the system by clicking on the ‘NEW GATEWAY’...
  • Page 22 Name/Port Number?’ box will pop up, click ‘YES’ to confirm the change. For example, if the first LANG identified as Carver Elementary and the port number is 64202, the information would appear as shown in Figure 3.2.3. The port munber entered must correspond to the port number that is programmed into the LANG. For simplicity, the port number may be left at 64100 for all gateways.
  • Page 23 Figure 3.2.5 Each record in the main window corresponds to a LANG in the network. The System 3000 will support 256 LANGs. The DST (Daylight Saving Time) button will open the DST window in which the user can toggle DST on or off and confirm dates.

    3.3 CONNECTING TO THE LANG - 3000 AND ENTERING DATA FOR GROUPS To enter data for a specific LANG and its associated TC  -   3 000 time clocks, select the desired LANG  -   3 000 in the DLPRO Main Menu window by clicking on the port number on the Host Port field and then clicking CONNECT (Figure 3.3.1).
  • Page 25 When the host computer has successfully connected and is communicating, the ‘LANG CONNECTED’ light is green. (Figure 3.3.2) If the LANG connected light is not green, then communication has not been established with the LANG  -   3 000, and the GROUP window will not open. Firewall restrictions configured in the host computer could be responsible, check firewall settings and allow an exception for either the software and/or port (See troubleshooting section in Section 8.2).
  • Page 26 Select one of the six groups being managed by this gateway to activate the Group controls for further operations as shown below (Figure 3.3.4). When a group is selected, the other group buttons “grey out” and are not accessible. Restricting all subsequent operations to the selected group. When a group is selected, the SCHEDULE, HOLIDAY, EXCEPTION, EDIT CLOCKS and SHOW CLOCKS functions become available.

    3.4 ENTERING DATA FOR TC - 3000 TIME CLOCkS To enter data for the TC  -   3 000 time clocks assigned to Group 1 of LANG 1 click on Edit Clocks (Figure 3.4.1). This opens the TIME CLOCKS window, as shown in Figure 3.4.2. Double-click in each field to enter the appropriate data.
  • Page 28 The MAC ID is assigned by the radio manufacturer and cannot be changed by the user. It must be entered in the format ###-###-### (Figure 3.4.3). Refer to the GETTING STARTED section on pages 5–13 and the System 3000 Group Configuration Record on page 47. The RF ID can be obtained using the [A] 54 command on the clock.
  • Page 29 between the LANG and clock via a chain of one or more clocks. The PATH function is selected by clicking on the arrow on the right of the COM CFG column. Selecting PATH will open the ‘RF ROUTING’ window. The RF ID for each clock in the path is entered, starting with the clock closest to the LANG and ending with the one closest to the pathed clock.
  • Page 30 Once the data for all TC  -   3 000 time clocks for Group 1 has been entered, click SAVE and then click SEND to LANG to transmit data (Figure 3.4.6). When the LANG receives the data it stores the configuration for GROUP 1 and updates the configuration of each clock in the group.
  • Page 31: Creating Weekly Schedules

    3.5 CREATING WEEkLY SCHEDULES From the GROUP window, access the weekly schedule by clicking on the SCHEDULE button (Figure 3.5.1). The weekly schedule is the default schedule and runs for the period specified, typically this schedule is Monday through Friday. (Figure 3.5.2) Figure 3.5.1 Figure 3.5.2...
  • Page 32 The default start and end dates are not defined. Select the period to run this weekly schedule using the fly-out calendar that appears when the arrow in the box to the left of the start and end date is selected.

Open fly-out window on the copy box by clicking the arrow button and select the group to which the schedule is to be copied. Click on the COPY button and the system automatically copies to the group selected (Figure 3.6.1).
  • Page 36 The option of selecting ‘Another LANG’ also appears in the fly-out window. A list of available LANGs appears. The list of LANGs can be expanded to show the available groups with each LANG. Select the LANG and GROUP to copy the schedule (Figure 3.6.2). Select COPY and a message appears that confirms the schedule has been copied (Figure 3.6.3).
  • Page 37: Holiday / No School Days

    3.7 HOLIDAY / NO SCHOOL DAYS Holiday  /   N o School Days are days when there is no school and the beacons should not operate. Holiday  /   N o School days are inclusive meaning that the start date is the first day that the beacons do not flash and the end date is the last day the beacons do not flash.

  • Page 39 Since most schools in a school district will have the same holidays, the program provides an easy method to copy the Holiday  /   N o School Days to another group. Open the fly-out window on the copy box by clicking the arrow button and select the group to which the Holiday ...
  • Page 40: Exceptions

    3.8 EXCEPTIONS Exceptions are exactly what the name implies, exceptions to the weekly schedule or the Holiday  /   N o School schedule. Typically, exceptions are used for early dismissals, late starts, or after hours events such as football games, or other times the flashers are needed. Since the clock will run an exception for the entire day, all ON/ OFF events must be included in the schedule.
  • Page 41 A feature called NAMED EXCEPTIONS is available for the benefit of the user. A named exception can be used repeatedly throughout the year — e.g. two-hour late starts, one-hour early dismissals. To create a named exception, click on the NAMED EXCEPTIONS button. A window called New Exception will open. Enter a meaningful name such as Early Dismissal shown in Figure 3.8.2 and click OK.

  • Page 43 Figure 3.8.5 COPY – copies the exception for the date shown (above the Intervals column) to the date selected in the fly-out box. SAVE – saves the exception just created. DELETE – deletes the exception shown in the Intervals column. A prompt appears to verify the action. Selecting YES deletes the exception, selecting NO cancels the deleting.

  • Page 48: Manual Control (Override)

    4.2 MANUAL CONTROL (OVERRIDE) Any program for the TC  -   3 000 time clock can be overridden manually from the clock, the LANG or the DLPRO. At the LANG or clock, manual controls are similar and are accomplished using the A 31 (ON), A 32 (OFF), or A 33 (Clear) functions.
  • Page 49: Real Time Clock Display (Show Clocks)

    4.4 REAL TIME CLOCk DISPLAY (Show Clocks) A typical display for a group with a number of clocks is shown in Figure 4.4.1. If there are more clocks in the group than can be displayed, the arrow at the right of the “Connected To” display can be used to scroll right or left to view the other clocks.

  • Page 51 Using the ELTEC Demo 1 LANG  -   3 000 example, if the gateway can successfully communicate with all clocks in its defined group, the clocks battery voltages are above 11.6 V DC, and the clocks are not in an override state, two green check marks should display for each clock.
  • Page 52 Referring to the graphic display above, observe that the cell with the TC  -   3 000 clock name is shaded green when everything is OK. If a TC  -   3 000 clock parameter is not OK, the cell will be shaded pink. In the System monitor mode, the name of the LANG will also be shaded whenever it has been interrogated.
  • Page 53: E-Mail Notification

    5.2 E-MAIL NOTIFICATION While running in System Monitor mode DLPRO continuously tracks operational parameters. Those conditions and parameters that are repeatedly abnormal are reported via E-mail. For example, should a solar powered clock’s battery voltage dip below the specified threshold and remain low for several minutes, the system will issue an E-mail to all recipients.
