4.19 TIMED PROGRAMMER
4.19.1
Operating principles
The timed programmer can be used to automate repetitive operations, such as arming or disarming a partition or a commandable
output. Programming is on a weekly basis, i.e. the commands are repeated in the same way every week.
Every day of the week can be classified as working day, pre-holiday or holiday as required and eight commands can be freely created
by the user for each type. Multiple commands can be programmed for the same time.
The automatic partition arming command is indicated in advance on the keypads (buzzer sounding the timed programmer LED
blinking) and activation of the timed programmers as notice that the command is about to be implemented. The advance is
programmed under the “Warning Time” parameter.
System arming can be postponed following the procedure described in the
User Manual .
The available timed programmer commands are:
Command Description Notes and examples
Arm partitions Arms the partition or partitions
Disarm partitions Disarms the partition or partitions
Activate commandable output Activates the commandable output
This output can be controlled remotely.
Deactivate commandable output
Deactivates the commandable
output
Activate pulsed commandable output Activates the pulsed commandable
output for approx. 1 second
This pulsed output can be controlled remotely.
Enable key or user code Enables a key or a code Cleaning services: by combining the two commands it is
possible to allow cleaning personnel to enter and work
indoors only on given days and at given times.
Disable key or user code Disables a key or a code
IMPORTANT! The timed programmer cannot manage festivities occurring during the week (such as Christmas, bank holidays
etc.) which will be treated as the day of the week on which they occur.
The control panel stores the timed programmer events permanently. The timed programmer can be enabled or disabled without
deleting the stored events as shown in the
User Manual .
The hourly programming state (enabled or disable) is shown on the keypad by the timed programmer LED.
The timed programmer commands remain active until the opposite command is imparted (by the timed programmer itself or by a us er
using the keypad or a reader): the programmer sends commands but does not check system or output status.
Example of operation
An office is open from Monday to Friday from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Days from Monday to Friday are set as working days. Saturdays and
Sundays are set as holidays. The first command for working days is to disarm the burglar alarm system at 8:55 a.m. and the last
command is to arm the system at 6:05 every day. There are no commands for holidays.
In practice, with the timed programmer, the burglar alarm system will be armed automatically at the end of each working day and will be
disarmed on the morning of the following day. After having been armed on Friday evening, it will not be disarmed until Monday
morning, because there are no disarming commands on Saturday and Sunday.
To access protected areas, if needed, a user can disarm the system manually with the keypad or reader also on Saturdays and
Sundays. The user must remember to rearm the system when leaving because otherwise the areas will remain unprotected.
