Menu 6.9 Password Protection
The password feature enables all parameters and confi guration settings to be protected unless a password is

Menu 6.10 Transmitter # Grouping
The transmitter store number display format can be changed to show a grouped format. When grouping is
selected, instead of displaying the store location as a number between 1 and 511, it is displayed as ##$ where
## is the group number and $ is a character a,b,c,d,e,f,g or h which indicates the group member.
Menu 7 Time Clock
The MegaCode® receiver provides a programmable Time Clock which can be used to control its outputs on a
timed basis at various times of the week. This section details the Time Clock operation and confi guration.
Time Clock Operation
The Time Clock consists of a 7 day clock and storage for 32 programs . The clock is powered by its own battery
and therefore does not lose time when the MegaCode® receiver is turned off. Each Time Clock program
defi nes the time of the day and the days of the week it is to run and the output function to be executed. Any
combination of the days of the week can be selected.
The output actions available are:
S_# Output# is SET on, Transmitter and wired triggers are ignored.
R_# Output# is RESET off, Transmitter and wired triggers are ignored.
RX# Output# is released for transmitter and wired trigger access. The output state is not changed.
--- Not used
Note that the most recent program that applies to an output remains active until a new program takes effect.
The program is not just executed at the programmed time but from the programmed time until another
program takes over. This also means that each output’s state is correctly restored after power failure, Vacation
Mode and output disabling. If a Time Clock program does not have a day selected then it can not executed. If
a Time Clock program is taking control of an output (function = S_# or R_#), then this status is displayed on the
MAIN SCREEN in the output fi eld as #S or #R where # is the program number.
Time Clock Settings
The Time Clock settings are accessed by selecting the Time Clock Menu 7. Press SET to enter the menu and
then PREV or NEXT to navigate through the options.
Menu 7.1 Set Time/date

the day of the week is not automatically set with the date. To change the settings simply press UP or DOWN
to display the cursor and then move to the fi eld to be changed using the NEXT / PREV buttons. Then press UP/
DOWN to change the setting and then press the SET or EXIT buttons to save.
Menu 7.2 View Programs
Select this menu to display or edit the Time Clock
programs. When selected, program number 1 is
displayed and the cursor is shown on the program
number fi eld. The other fi elds shown include the
function, time and days of operation. The example
in Fig. 26 shows that output 1 will be SET on at 6pm

Fridays. Use the UP / DOWN buttons to scroll though
