02 - SETTING TIME ZONES
Time zones can restrict access of cards or codes to certain times
during specified days (e.g., the janitor's code is good only during
the times he is supposed to be in the building).
Up to 7 restricted time zones can be created, each of which
contain up to 3 separate time periods. These zones can then be
assigned to cards or codes as they are entered into the system
(see Telephone Numbers, Entry Codes and Card Codes,
programming numbers 13, 14, and 15, pages 18-19). Holidays
may be included or excluded from a time zone. If excluded, any
date designated as a holiday in programming number 11 will not
be included as part of the time zone even if it falls on a day (such
as Monday) that would otherwise be included. To set up a time
zone that extends past midnight and into the next day, create one
segment that runs until midnight (e.g., Monday through Friday
from 8 p.m. until 12 midnight) and a second segment that starts
at midnight on the following days (e.g., Tuesday through
Saturday, from 12 midnight until 4 a.m.).
If setting a time zone for holidays, also program that time zone to
be valid for a day of the week. For example, January 1st is
programmed as a holiday and this holiday lands on a Friday. In
order for a code to be considered valid, the time zone for that
code must be valid on holidays as well as for Fridays. If the time
zone is programmed to be valid only on holidays and not for
Fridays, the code will be considered invalid and will not
grant access.
1. Restricted time zones are numbered 1 to 7. Select the time
zone to create or modify.
2. Three different time periods may be set for each time zone. If
only one unit is being addressed, the current entries for all
segments in that unit will be displayed on the screen. If no
entries have been made, next prompt will be skipped.
3. If "0" is entered, a prompt to enter more time segments will be
shown. Enter segment time and valid days.
4. Set the segment begin time in a 2-digit minute format
(e.g., 0600). AM/PM is set in the next step. Do not enter a
colon after the hour.
5. Set AM/PM orientation to the begin time.
6. Set the segment end time (e.g., 0530). Segments must end
after time that access starts and may not extend past 12 p.m.
on the same day.
7. Set AM/PM orientation to the end time.
8. Enter the days on which the time zone is valid, whereas
1 = Sunday, 2 = Monday, 3 = Tuesday, 4 = Wednesday,
5 = Thursday, 6 = Friday, 7 = Saturday, 8= Holiday
9. Press 1 to continue.
