Clear All (ACT2000 Only)

This function manually removes all users from the area. An event is logged for tracking. This is typically used at the end of a day or week to remove any users from the system who have neglected to use their cards when exiting.

Set Date/Time

The Set Date/Time function allows the operator to adjust the date and time on the controller’s real-time clock. The built-in clock is normally accurate to within 60 seconds per month and will occasionally need adjusting to maintain the accuracy of logged events.

The display will prompt the user to enter the correct year (1996-2020), month (1-12), date (1- 31), hour (0-23) and minute (0-59). The seconds will be zeroed. The prompt “Set?” is displayed on the bottom line of the LCD. The clock will not actually be updated until the ✔ key is pressed, allowing the operator to wait until the time is exactly correct. Any other key will exit without altering the time.

The day of the week calculation, millennium and leap year adjustments are made automatically by the controller’s internal clock, even if power is not present.

ACTWinPro automatically changes the controller time to match that of the PC. For Summer and Winter time changes, the controller must be connected to ACTWinPro.

Time Zones

A timezone is a combination of times for which some specified event should occur. For example, it may be used to determine when a group of users should be allowed access to the protected area. Typically, this is used to give different user groups varying degrees of access to the doors at different times of the day.

As an example: In a manufacturing environment, most production workers would be allowed access only on Monday to Thursday from 8.30 to 17.00, and on Friday from 8.30 to 15.00. This period would be set up in a timezone and assigned to most groups. Another category of worker might work different hours, so a second timezone could be set up for Monday to Friday from 17.00 to 19.30 and assigned to these groups, in addition to the previous timezone. Management would usually be granted 24 hour access, so a third timezone could be set up granting access from Sunday to Saturday (and holidays) from 00.00 to 23.59 and assigned to the management group. Note that there is a built-in 24-hour timezone that could be used instead.

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 any 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.

ACT1000, ACT2000 specifications

Guardian Technologies, a leader in air purification solutions, offers two standout products in their lineup: the ACT2000 and the ACT1000. Both air purifiers leverage advanced technologies to deliver cleaner, fresher indoor air, making them ideal for families, pet owners, and anyone looking to improve their indoor air quality.

The ACT2000 is designed with a robust filtration system that includes a True HEPA filter capable of capturing 99.97% of airborne particles as small as 0.3 microns. This feature is particularly effective against allergens, dust, mold spores, and pet dander. Additionally, the ACT2000 employs an activated carbon filter that targets and neutralizes odors from cooking, pets, and smoke, ensuring that the air in your home remains fresh and pleasant.

A highlight of the ACT2000 is its innovative UV-C light technology. This feature works synergistically with the filtration system by using ultraviolet light to kill bacteria and viruses present in the air, creating a thorough air purification process. With its coverage of up to 1,250 square feet, the ACT2000 is suited for larger spaces such as living rooms, gyms, or open-concept homes. The device also comes equipped with real-time air quality monitoring, allowing users to track the air quality and adjust settings accordingly.

On the other hand, the ACT1000 is a more compact model, ideal for smaller rooms or offices up to 700 square feet. Similarly, it utilizes a True HEPA filter and an activated carbon filter to purify the air efficiently. While the ACT1000 may be smaller than its counterpart, it does not compromise on performance. The UV-C light technology is included to ensure that airborne pathogens are effectively neutralized.

Both models feature smart controls that allow users to operate the air purifiers remotely. With multiple fan speeds and a whisper-quiet operation, both units can run unobtrusively in the background, even while you’re sleeping or working. An intuitive filter replacement indicator alerts users when it’s time to change the filters, making maintenance simple and straightforward.

In summary, the Guardian Technologies ACT2000 and ACT1000 epitomize modern air purification with their combination of HEPA filtration, activated carbon, UV-C technology, and user-friendly features. Whether you choose the larger capacity of the ACT2000 or the compact efficiency of the ACT1000, both models offer an effective solution for creating a healthier indoor environment.
