Programming an Event to Issue a Sequence Command

Sequences may be programmed into the time clock to allow for multiple or specialized actions to be triggered by a single 
event. Sequences are only programmable by using iLumin Plus software. Once a sequence has been programmed, it is 
possible to use the time clock keypad to program an event to start, stop, or pause this pre-defined sequence. This will 
require knowledge of the sequence numbers that are used and a clear understanding of the sequence’s actions and purpose. 

An event sequence command may start the sequence, stop the sequence, or pause the sequence. To program a sequence
