Example 1:
You have three offices, one in New York, one in San Francisco, and one in Houston. You are the
system administrator and you are in New York; the host is in Houston. You want to schedule all doors
in the system to open at 08:00.
• Host Context: If you select Host as the context for this door event, all doors in the system will
open simultaneously, at 08:00 Houston time. However, it will be 09:00 in New York and 06:00
in San Francisco.
• Operator Context: If you select Operator as the context for this door event, all doors in the
system will open simultaneously, at 08:00 New York time. However, it will be 07:00 in
Houston, and 05:00 in San Francisco.
• Device Context: If, however, you select Device as the context for this door event, all doors in
the system will open at 08:00 local time -- the time local to the micro to which the doors are
connected. The doors in New York will open first at 08:00 local time, and then, one hour later,
the doors in Houston will open at 08:00 local time, and finally, two hours after that, the doors
in San Francisco will open at 08:00 local time.
