Using the system
27
•
The control unit adjusts its clock in Spring and Autumn to allow for Summer Daylight Saving
Time. At the Autumn change-over, avoid configuring any unset events to take place during the
changeover time on the Sunday morning. For UK systems, this time is 01:00 to 02:00. For EU
control units, this time is 02:00 to 03:00. If the control unit unsets any part of the system at these
times, it will NOT set the system again when the clock changes back to Winter Time.
Manually setting and unsetting partitions does not alter the times programmed in calendar sets. If a user
sets a partition that is due to be set by a calendar event, the partition remains set when the calendar event
time is past. Likewise, if a user unsets a partition before a calendar event is due to unset the partition, the
partition remains unset.
Add Event
Use System Config – Calendar Set – Add Event to create an event. When you select the option, the control
unit will guide you through the following series of options:
Event Name
Enter up to 12 characters or press
4
to leave the default name. See APPENDIX C on page 43 for
details of how to edit text.
Event Time
Specify the time you want the event to occur, then
4
to display the next prompt.
The time “00:00” is midnight, at the beginning of a new day.
Note that if you specify a start time that is less than 10 minutes from the current time shown by
the control unit clock (that is, less than the period set by Warning Time), the event will not take
action until the following day.
Event Days
Choose the days you want the event to occur.
Press
▲
or
▼
to scroll through each day of the week. Press
◀
or
▶
to specify Yes or No.
Event Actions
Press
▲
or
▼
to scroll through each partition, and
◀
or
▶
to select No (no action), Full (full set), Part
(part set) or Unset.
Event Exceptions
Choose the exceptions (set up using Add Exception) that you want to apply to the event. Press
▲
or
▼
to scroll through the list of programmed exceptions. Press
◀
or
▶
to specify Yes (the exception
applies to the event) or No.
Warning Time
Specify the period (in minutes) you want the control unit to sound the warning tone before the
start of a setting event. Enter between 1 and 30 minutes. The default is 10. There is no specific
warning indication for an unset event. The warning tone sounds at the keypads and loudspeakers
allocated to the partition(s) specified in the event. At the beginning of the warning time, the
control unit activates any outputs of type Autoset Warning. At the end of the period, the control
unit stops the warning tone, sets the affected partition(s) without any delay and deactivates any
outputs of type Autoset Warning.
Warning Tone
Press
▲
or
▼
to choose between Audible or Silent. When Silent, the control unit will NOT sound a
warning tone for the event (although the warning timer will still operate).
