Example 1 of One Day Rollover

At home you’d like the Latchkey Opening feature to be effective from 10 p.m. on Tuesday until 5 a.m. on Wednesday (see Figure 8 Example 1).

By taking advantage of One Day Rollover, one time schedule can cover both days. (That sched- ule is illustrated in Figure 8.)

Notice how the stop time is within 24 hours of the start time. The system knows to apply the stop time to the next day (5 a.m. on Wednesday).

Example 2 of One Day Rollover

Building on Example 1, let’s say that you’d like the Latchkey Opening feature to be effective between 10 p.m. and 5 a.m., Monday through Friday (ending Saturday morning).

By simply applying the start and stop times to each day, one time schedule can cover the entire week (see Figure 8 Example 2).

Multiple Day Rollover

The simplest method for defining a window of time that spans multiple days is to use 99:99 to signify an open start or stop time.

Example of Multiple Day Rollover

At your business you’d like specific lights to remain lit from Friday afternoon through the week- end, until Monday morning.

In this situation, the lights need to be scheduled to roll over until they reach a recognizable stop time.

In the Figure 8 Example 3, Schedule Y is set up to begin at 4 p.m. on Friday afternoon. Since the stop time is 99:99, the lights will remain lit (roll over) until a recognizable stop time is reached.

Schedule Z is set up with an undefined start time (99:99), so if the lights were already lit, they will remain lit until the Schedule Z stop time is reached at 5 a.m.

Attaching Time Schedules

For any schedule to be effective, it needs to be attached to a feature. One schedule can be attached to more than one feature event.

See “Advanced Light Control” for information on attaching time schedules for light control.

See “Controlling Outputs By Time Schedule” for information on attaching time schedules to outputs.

See “Schedule Arming” for information on attaching schedules to Arming.
