Run: Click this button to exit PC programming and place the CTG-2 in run mode. Simply press
the "Run" button, select the desired schedule or Calendar mode and press "Start".
Exit: Clicking "Exit" with a dat file open will prompt you "Do you want to start running?" Selecting
"Yes or No" will exit and close the CTG-2 programming software. If "no" was selected the CTG-2
will display "OFF" and will not activate any programmed events. The 4 trigger inputs will remain
functional. If "Yes" was selected the "Run" menu will appear allowing you to select the "Calendar
Mode" or any preprogrammed schedule. Click on "Start" and the CTG-2 will begin running the
selected schedule.
Block Edit: Screen opens after single clicking in the
Event row. By clicking and highlighting, entire blocks of
events can be selected. This is used to Copy, Cut, Paste,
Insert or Delete single or multiple Event rows. This can be
useful for copying an entire schedule then modifying the
event times slightly for early release, late start, etc. (right)
Conflicts: Clicking the "Conflicts" button will open the Conflicts
screen where you can have the software review the programmed
Events and Schedule changes in your dat file to determine date or
time conflicts. This will also check for conflicts if a wave file is not fin-
ished playing before another event is scheduled to activate. When
you have finished programming your dat file, click on "Conflicts", and
select "Calendar Mode" or which schedule you would like to check
for conflicts then click "Review". The "Conflicts" screen will display all
the events with conflicts and the "Event Programming" menu will
highlight the events with conflicts in yellow. Make corrections to the
highlighted events then review conflicts again. (right)
Sort Events: When you are finished programming all your events in your dat file, you can
select this feature to automatically sort all of the events in chronological order starting with
all your change schedules events for schedule 1. In the "Event Programming" screen
select the "Tools" pull down menu and click "Sort Events" then click "Review". (right)
Diagnostics: This section is password protected. Only access this area if directed to do
so by Viking Technical Support personnel (this allows you to view firmware memory, fac-
tory clock calibration, etc.)
Set Up Clock: Clicking the "Clock" button will open the "Set Up Clock"
programming screen where you can enter/program Clock Parameters
such as Time base (Internal, 50 Hz or 60Hz), Time Zone and Set Clock
(Manual, PC time or Sync to ACTS). Program Clock Time (Year, Month,
Day, and Time) and Modem Parameters such as Security Code, Auto
Answer Ring Delay (1-99) and ACTS Phone Number.

date parameters displayed in the "Clock Time" section of the "Set
Up Clock" screen.
