Description
'Clock' functions activate the appropriate clock programs which are set in TIMESOFT.
Parameters
Within the function
- Clock Functions
- Select here the wanted clock function to activate the appropriate clock program. Following clock functions are standard available in PROSOFT :
- Regime
- Automatic Workday/Weekend day: This clock function automatically activates the clock workday or weekend day.
This regime or clock program is the standard active setting.
- Regime
- Workday: This 'Clock' function activates the clock 'Workday' even if the active moment in PROSOFT (options) is defined as weekend day. When the clock 'Work day' is active, the clock 'Weekend day' or 'Simulation' cannot possibly be active.
- Regime
- Weekend day: This 'Clock' function activates the clock 'Weekend' even if the active moment in PROSOFT (options) has been defined as week day defined. When the clock 'Weekend day' is active, the clock 'Workday' or 'Simulation' cannot be possibly active.
- Regime
- Presence simulation: This 'Clock' function activates the simulation program of your house. This clock is used in case of lengthy absence, to create an impression of presence. When the clock 'Simulation' is active, the clock 'Weekend day' or 'Workday' cannot be possibly active.
- Regime
- None: This 'Clock' function switches off the clocks 'Weekend day', 'Workday' and 'Simulation'. The clock 'Custom' however remains unchanged.
- Custom clock table on/off
- This 'Clock' function will switch on or off the clock 'Custom'. This clock can be activated independently of the other clocks. Consequently the 'Custom' clock can run simultaneously with the clock 'Weekday' or the clock 'Weekend' or the clock 'Simulation'.
- Next regime
- switches to the next regime. The order of the regimes is: Auto → workday →weekend→simulation→none→auto→…
- Last regime
- switches to the last regime.
Next to these clock functions which are standard available no other clock functions are available or need to be generated.
The clock functions are directly connected to the different clock programs in TIMESOFT. When no actions in the different clock programs are defined, then it makes no sense to use the clock functions. Consult the TIMESOFT description for more information about the clock programs.
Function behaviour when used on an interface
'Clock functions: Regime'
- Short
- With a short push on the button the selected clock program is activated. When switched off (again a short push), the standard active setting 'Regime: automatic Weekday/Weekend day' is activated.
- Long
- The operation is the same as described under 'Short'.
'Clock functions: Custom' type
- Short
- With a short push on the button the 'Custom' clock program is activated when it was 'off'. It will be switched off when it was 'on'.
- Long
- With a long push on the button the 'Custom' clock program is activated when it was 'off'. It will be switched off when it was 'on'.
Type 'Clock functions: Next/Previous'.
- Short
- with a short push on the button the next/previous clock program is activated. At the next push on the button the next/previous regime will be activated.
- Long
- the operation is the same as described under 'Short'.
Function behaviour when operating in another function
'Clock functions: Regime' type
The target value is not adjustable for the 'Regime' clock functions. When the other function is switched on the selected clock program will be activated. When the other function is switched off, the standard active setting 'Regime: automatic Weekday/Weekend day' will be activated.
'Clock functions: Custom'
The target value can be set for the 'Custom' clock function. Depending on the selected target value the operation is as follows:
- On
- The 'Custom' clock program is activated.
- Off
- The 'Custom' clock program is switched off.
- On/Off
- When the other function is activated the 'Custom' clock program is activated. When the other function is switched off the 'Custom' clock program is switched off.
- Off/Off
- When the other function is activated and when it is switched off the 'Custom' clock program is switched off.
Not every function can be switched off. Consult the description of the respective function.
