- Schedule: A reference number 
assigned by the system; 
- Name: A suitable name/description for 
the schedule, or its intended use; 
- Interval: A reference number for the 
unique time interval (1-6); 
- Start and Stop: The time that the 
specific time-interval begins or ends 
(the interval is 'active' between these 
times). Times are entered as 0010-
2350 (the colon and leading zeros are 
inserted automatically for your 
convenience); 
Split Shift: Be sure to include an interval for 
after a meal break—assuming the break is not part of 
the 'required attendance' times. 
Work Shift that Spans Midnight
: It's simplest to use 
grid view, entering the start and stop times in the order 
they occur (e.g., Start time: 23:00, Stop time: 07:00), 
and select the weekdays pertaining to the start
 time. 
- Start of Holiday: This allows selecting 
whether holiday operation will begin at 
midnight, or not until this schedule expires 
(i.e., for time-intervals that span midnight). 
- Days of the Week: The weekdays during 
which the time interval will take effect. (Use 
space-bar to toggle; Tab to select next.) 
- Holiday 1/2/3 Schedule: How the schedule will 
treat each type of holiday (No access / as 
regular weekday / 24 hr access, or as per the 
times in another schedule). 
Tip: Pause the mouse cursor over a Schedule in the 
list to view the associated times. 
For details on setting up holidays, refer to "Holidays 
and Time-Change Dates). 
Note: For schedules assigned only
 within other 
schedules (for use on holidays), the times set for the 
applicable weekday will be used (nested holiday-
schedule settings will be ignored). 
Holidays and Time-Change 
Dates 
Holidays (and/or time-change dates) Shared Across 
Multiple Accounts: Beginning with Director V4.20, 
groups of holidays can be set up once, and then applied 
to multiple accounts. For a shared holiday, changes 
made here will affect multiple accounts. To set up or 
change a 'shared holiday', refer to "Users and Holidays 
Shared Across Multiple Accounts". 
Holidays 
Holidays are defined dates for an account that:  
 Automatically change the system time 
between Daylight Savings Time and 
Standard Time on the applicable days, or
; 
 Allow blocking or setting different times for 
scheduled features on these dates (area 
openings, user access to doors, and 
automated door unlockings). 
Exception: Users with "24-hr" access and 'disarm' 
authority for the specific area can gain entry on 
holidays. For details, refer to "Authorities for 
Users/Entrants". 
Holiday Deployment
: See the "Holiday Type" selection 
for details on system operation during holidays.
