Day Scheduling – Setting Doors/Readers to Unlock on Specific Dates

Note:
Day Scheduling allows you to program specific reader(s) or door(s) to automatically unlock on selected dates for a defined time period.
This feature runs through the Server (host), so the server services must be active for the schedule to take effect.

You can add either individual readers or Access Control Reader Groups (ACRGs).
To learn how to create an ACRG, refer to the link below:

Steps to Configure a Day Schedule

  1. Go to Access Control → Day Scheduling.

  2. If you’re using Controller Groups, select the desired group from the Controller Groups drop-down menu.

  3. Choose the Date when the reader(s) should unlock from the built-in calendar.

  4. Set the Start Time and End Time for the unlock period.

  5. To add:

    • Individual readers: Click in the Reader(s) box and select the readers.

    • ACRGs: Click in the Access Control Reader Group(s) field and select the ACRG.

  6. Click Save to store the configuration.

  7. To review scheduled days, click the Programmed Day(s) button at the top right.


Additional Note:
You can program Day Schedule Dates up to one year in advance, with an option to repeat them in future years.
