Time Zones
A timezone is a combination of times and days. Timezones are part of the group configuration,
and provide the times and days when users assigned to a group may have access.
As an example: In a manufacturing environment, production workers are allowed access Monday
to Thursday from 8.30 to 17.00, and on Friday from 8.30 to 15.00 only. To grant access to the
workers at these times only, the times and days would be set up in a timezone, and then group
would be configured with this timezone using the Access Rights menu. Users assigned to this
group would only have access at the specified times and days.
Each timezone consists of up to five periods of time and a corresponding combination of assigned
weekdays or holidays. The timezone is in force during the hours specified in an
y of the five time
periods, but only on the days specified for that period.
The current timezone number will be displayed on the top line of the display. The desired
timezone may be selected using the 0 key or directly by entering the timezone number. The lower
line on the display will indicate if that timezone is active or inactive. Pressing the ✔ key allows
the timezone to be edited. In edit mode, the top line of the display shows the available periods in
the form ABCDE * -. The 0 key allows one of the five periods to be selected and pressing ✔
allows the period to be set.
Note:
Timezones are also used by Timed Actions, which are part of Door Settings.
