AUX OUTPUT ON
The AUX output on function causes the auxiliary output relay to be energized. It will remain
energized until the output is explicitly switched off. The output may be used to control externally
connected equipment such as lights or heating.
AUX OUTPUT OFF
The AUX output off function causes the auxiliary output relay to be de-energized. The output may
be used to control externally connected equipment such as lights or heating.
User Tracking (ACT2000 Only)
The user tracking option allows the controller to remember which users are in or out of the defined
area. If antipassback doors are assigned, then these define the tracking area, however users will
not be allowed to re-enter the area until they have been recorded as exiting. If perimeter doors are
assigned, then these define the tracking area, however users may re-enter without restriction. If
both are assigned, then the antipassback doors define the tracking area.
The Users Present output and User Limit A & B outputs operate on the tracking area.
LOG IN (ACT2000 ONLY)
This function manually enters a user into the area. An event is logged for tracking. This is typically
used when a user has forgotten their card. Manual login is not available if antipassback doors are
defined - card access MUST be used.
LOG OUT (ACT2000 ONLY)
This function manually removes a user from the area. An event is logged for tracking. This is
typically used when a user has forgotten their card or when they have violated antipassback
procedures and require entry.
CLEAR ALL (ACT2000 ONLY)
This function manually removes all users from the area. An event is logged for tracking. This is
typically used at the end of a day or week to remove any users from the system who have neglected
to use their cards when exiting.
Set Date/Time
The Set Date/Time function allows the operator to adjust the date and time on the controller’s
real-time clock. The built-in clock is normally accurate to within 60 seconds per month and will
occasionally need adjusting to maintain the accuracy of logged events.
The display will prompt the user to enter the correct year (1996-2020), month (1-12), date (1-31),
hour (0-23) and minute (0-59). The seconds will be zeroed. The prompt “Set?” is displayed on the
bottom line of the LCD. The clock will not actually be updated until the ✔ key is pressed, allowing
the operator to wait until the time is exactly correct. Any other key will exit without altering the
time.
The day of the week calculation, millennium and leap year adjustments are made automatically
by the controller’s internal clock, even if power is not present. ACTWinPro automatically
changes the controller time to match that of the PC. For Summer and Winter time changes, the
controller must be connected to ACTWinPro.
