A door access schedule lets you decide who can open the door and when. It applies to both individuals and groups, ensuring that users within the schedule can only open the door using the authorized method during designated time periods.
Create Door Access Schedule
You can create door access schedules for daily, weekly, or custom time periods.
Set it up on the web Setting > Schedule interface. You can add 100 local schedules.
Schedule Type:
Normal: Set the schedule based on the month, week, and day. It is used for a long-term schedule.
Weekly: Set the schedule based on the week.
Daily: Set the schedule based on 24 hours a day.
Schedule Name: Name the schedule.
Holiday Exemption: The holiday schedule has higher priority over the access schedule, which limits users from opening doors. If users want to open doors during holidays within the access schedule, you need to check this option.
Import and Export Door Access Schedule
In addition to creating door access a schedule separately, you can also conveniently import or export the schedules in order to maximize your door access schedule management efficiency.
To set it up, go to the Setting > Schedule interface. The import file should be in XML format.
Relay Schedule
The relay schedule allows you to set a specific relay to always open at a certain time. This is helpful for situations like keeping the gate open after school or keeping the door open during work hours.
To set up a relay schedule, go to the Access Control > Relay > Relay Schedule interface.
