Getting Started

Definitions

Event: A pre-programmed action, such as ringing of bells, at a specific time, which is triggered by
a relay closure in one or more of the zones of the master clock

Schedule: A series of programmed events. One schedule can include enough events to cover a com­ plete school day.

Zone: Each zone is controlled by a relay closure, to which devices such as bells or fire alarms can
be connected. The master clock has four zones as a standard, with up to twelve optional.

User programming features

All user programming is to be done by using the 16-button keypad located on the front of the Sapling master
clock. The keypad is shown below:

this manual. (The user password will be programmed prior to installation by the contracting company techni­cian who is supplying the clock system.) Press the four digits of the password on the keypad. There is no
need to press the <YES/ENTER> key after entering the password. You will automatically be brought to the
next step upon entering the password. Please note: your password will be hidden as you enter it. The * sign
will appear instead of digits.

To Exit the Programming Mode

the <NO/CLEAR> key, as appropriate, in response to the prompts on the LCD display. After scrolling
through all the options and responding to all applicable prompts the LCD display will then return to the main
