Schedules for User-Access
and Area Automation
Schedules
Schedules are customizable time-windows for
an account that can:
 Allow areas to 'open' (disarm), and 'close'
(arm) automatically;
 Set times when authorized entrants will be
able to enter assigned areas;
 Allow doors to unlock & relock, and/or
change their operating criteria
automatically.
On defined holidays, schedules can be blocked, or
customized to meet your specific needs. If custom
times are desired, additional schedule(s) must be set
up. (See the "Holiday Schedules" description for
details.)
User authorities can be set to allow 24-hr access
(including holidays) without the need to set up a "24-hr"
schedule). Related Topic: "Authorities for
Users/Entrants".
