Section 24 – Scheduling Options

24-5

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 (a person who arms the system forgets
something and has to reenter), 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.

The following chart gives an example of how the Open/Close by Exception reporting works.
