Event Schedules Tab
Reference Topics:
Event Schedule Form
Use this tab to create an event. Events are not partitioned by
. If you need to use facilities in your
system, create an event for each facility. Use the facility description as a prefix on the Event Schedule
Form, Description to indicate to which facility this event will apply.
Example:
BocaHQ Weekend Begins
would indicate a facility-specific event schedule, where
BocaHQ
refers to a geographic location. For example, you could create an event beginning each Friday at 6:00
P.M. that resets the APB status and the T&A status, and sets a reader to Badge and Keypad. Employees
coming into the building after 6 P.M. on Friday will be required to present their badge and then key in a
PIN number to enter the building. Remember that an event will stay in effect until another event occurs to
change it. Therefore, in our example, a second event will need to be scheduled to change that reader
back to Normal on Monday morning.
The time 24:00 is the same as 00:00 of the next day. For example, Friday at 24:00 is the same as
Saturday at 00:00.
•
Time chart: Click your mouse pointer on the time and day of the week/mode. This creates a
diamond that indicates that the event will occur at that time and that day of the week/mode.
Note that the current event’s diamond is selected. Time is displayed in half-hour increments
by default. To change the display increment, click and hold the left mouse button on the right
end of the bottom time bar then move the cursor to the left until you are at the desired time
increment. Then, click the desired time. If the point is incorrectly located, you can drag and
drop the point to the exact location you want.
•
Event: Displays the number of the event. The numbers start with one for the first event and
increment consecutively for each event thereafter.
•
New: Click to create a new event. The Secure Perfect application does not use these
additional points at this time.
•
Delete: Click to delete an event. You can delete a schedule that is currently in effect. The
Delete button will remove the most recent point you have created. If you continue to click
Delete, additional calendar points will disappear in the order they were created. Deleting a
schedule does not affect the current state of any devices to which this schedule is
associated. Any devices currently under the effect of the deleted schedule will remain in that
state until changed manually or by another event schedule.
Event details
The controls in this section are not needed in most circumstances. Use details to verify that your
selections match the calendar display.
•
Event time: Displays the time at which the event will occur.
•
Mode/day: Displays the mode or day on which the event will occur.
You will need to assign this event schedule to a device such as a micro (see Micro Form, Events tab)
or a reader (see the Reader Form, Reader Type Events tab).
Event Trigger
Administration Menu
Select Event Trigger to open the Event Trigger Form that allows you to associate cameras, presets,
reader transactions, and alarm transactions for creating event-driven video response. An event consists
of a camera and either readers or alarms.
