Section 14: Event Scheduling
Event scheduling allows for a variety of timed events to occur on specific dates and at specific times. Openings and closings can be sup-
pressed during high traffic times, outputs may be programmed to follow date schedules and partitions may be auto-armed and auto-dis-
armed at specific times.
14.1 Date Schedules
Ref #: [001001]
The panel uses date schedules to control the period during which
an event will occur. There are 99 date schedules, each containing
four intervals. Date schedules are used by open/close suppression
schedules, holiday groups, arming/disarming schedules and out
-
put schedules (see 11.3 ”Programmable Output Options’).
To disable a date schedule, set all the days of the week and all the
holiday groups to N.
NOTE: Date schedules 00 and 01 are special purpose schedules used
to control events for the PC4820 Access Control module. For infor
-
mation regarding these schedules, see the PC4820 Installation Man-
ual.
Interval Programming
Ref #: [001001XXYY] where [XX = date schedule 02-99] and
[YY = interval 01-04]
Every date schedule contains four intervals. Each interval con-
tains the time and days that the schedule will be active. Intervals
also contain holiday groups as well as automatic arming/disarm
-
ing options. The following items can be programmed for each
interval:
Set Start Time
Program the time of day that the schedule interval will start
(HHMM). The default time is 0000 (midnight). Valid entries are
0000-2359 and 9999 (no start time). If two intervals in a schedule
are programmed for the same start time, the schedule will follow
the interval with the longest end time.
Set End Time
Program the time of day that the schedule interval will end
(HHMM). The default time is 0000 (midnight). Valid entries are
0000-2359 and 9999 (no end time).
Select Toggles
The following toggle options are available for each interval.
Select either [Y]es or [N]o for each option by pressing the [*] key.
The default for each option is No (off).
• Sunday-Saturday: Select on which days of the week the
interval will be active.
• Holiday 1-4: Select the holiday group(s) that the interval is to
follow. See
14.2 ”Holiday Groups’ for holiday programming.
• Auto-arm: Select whether the interval will be used to auto-
matically arm any partition(s) selected by the arming and dis-
arming schedule. See 14.4 ”Arming/Disarming Schedules’ for
auto-arm programming.
• Auto-disarm: Select whether the interval will be used to
automatically disarm any partition(s) selected by the arming
and disarming schedule. See
14.4 ”Arming/Disarming Sched-
ules’ for auto-disarm programming.
NOTE: Do not program an interval with both auto-arming and auto-
disarming enabled. In order for these features to work, they must be
programmed as separate intervals.
Activating Outputs for Less than One Minute
When programming an output to activate for less than one minute,
program the output’s pulse time between 01 and 59 seconds. The
output will remain active for the number of seconds programmed.
If the pulse time is programmed as 00, the output will remain
active until the end time of the interval (see
11.3 ”Programmable
Output Options’).
Activating Outputs for Longer than One Day
If a schedule is required to extend past 24 hours, two intervals will
be required. Program the start time of the first interval and select
the day of the week on which the schedule should start. Program
the end time of the first interval and the start time of the second
interval as [9999]. Program the end time of the second interval
and select the day of the week on which the schedule should end.
Activating Schedules on Specific Days
You may have an application that requires a schedule to only be
active on holidays. Program an interval with the desired start and
end time. Select [N] for every day of the week. Select [Y] for the
correct holiday group. Normally, the schedule will never activate
except on the holidays programmed in the selected holiday group.
NOTE: To properly disable an interval, you must return all of the
interval settings to the default state.
14.2 Holiday Groups
Ref #: [001002]
Holiday Groups allow for days when scheduled events should not
occur. There are four Holiday Groups. Up to two years of dates can
be programmed per holiday schedule.
To program a holiday schedule, select the Holiday Group from 1 to 4
and the display will read ’Enter Date’. Enter the month, day and
year—this year or next—as a 6-digit entry (MMDDYY). Once the
date has been entered, the keypad will beep and another date can be
entered using the same format. Use the [<] [>] keys to scroll through
the programmed dates. To erase a selected date, press the [*] key
when the date is displayed on the keypad. Once a holiday has
occurred, the holiday will be erased from the panel’s memory.
Holiday Groups 1-4 can be enabled for any interval of any Date
schedule.
NOTE: The system time and date (including year) must be set before
holiday schedule programming can begin.
14.3 Open/Close Suppression
Ref #: [001000]
Open/Close Suppression will prevent the communication of open-
ings or closings for the partitions following a programmed date
schedule. When an Open/Close Suppression schedule is active,
openings or closings for the selected partitions will be logged to
the event buffer but no transmission will be made to the central
station.
There are 99 Open/Close Suppression Schedules. Each is capable
of suppressing openings or closings for the selected Partitions, but
not both. To suppress openings AND closings, two separate
Open/Close Suppression schedules must be programmed.
The following options are programmable for each Open/Close
Suppression schedule:
Open/Close Suppression Toggle
If the Open/Close Suppression schedule is being used to suppress
openings, toggle this option to [Y]. If it is to suppress closings,
toggle this option to [N].
Date Schedule
Enter the 2-digit number of the date schedule that will be used to
suppress openings or closings.
