Settings Options and Partitions Menus

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 this option 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
to leave the default name.
Event Time
Specify the time you want the event to occur, then
to display the next prompt.
T
he 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
In a partitioned system, press
or
to scroll through each partition, and
or
to
select No (no action), Full (full set), Part (part set) or Unset.
In a part-setting system, select one of: Full Set, Part Set B (or C or D) 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 (see page 67).
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.
