Basic idea
The cell doors are controlled by a central schedule. The schedule follows Second Life Time, also called SLT.
The normal schedule is:
- Even SLT hours = cells open
- Odd SLT hours = cells closed
Example:
12:00 AM SLT = Open
1:00 AM SLT = Closed
2:00 AM SLT = Open
3:00 AM SLT = Closed
The controller manages the schedule. Each individual door can also be taken out of automatic mode if staff need to control that one door manually.
Door Status
Each cell door shows hover text.
Auto ON
When a door is in Auto ON, it follows the controller schedule.
The cell is then marked with:
Cell P1
AUTO: ON
Next: Close 7:00 PM SLT
or
Cell P1
AUTO: ON
Next: Close 7:00 PM SLT
If the text is green, the door is currently open.
If the text is yellow, the door is currently closed.
Auto OFF
When a door is in Auto OFF, it does not follow the schedule. Staff must control it manually.
Example:
Cell P1
AUTO: OFF
Remember turn on auto!
This text is red.
Using a Single Cell Door
Click the cell door to open the door menu.
The menu has:
- Auto ON
- Auto OFF
- Open
- Close
Auto ON
Use this when the door should follow the controller schedule again.
Auto OFF
Use this when you want to manually control that specific door.
The door will stop following the controller schedule until Auto ON is selected again.
Open
Opens the door manually.
This only works if the door is already set to Auto OFF.
If the door is still in Auto ON, you will get this message:
Denied. Door must be set to AUTO OFF before using Open.
Close
Closes the door manually.
This only works if the door is already set to Auto OFF.
If the door is still in Auto ON, you will get this message:
Denied. Door must be set to AUTO OFF before using Close.
Shutter and Hatch
Some doors have extra clickable parts.
Shutter
Clicking the shutter toggles it up or down.
This only checks if you have the correct active group. It does not open the door menu.
Hatch top
Clicking the hatch top opens or closes it.
This only checks if you have the correct active group. It does not open the door menu.
Controller Menu
Click the controller to open the main controller menu.
Main menu:
Sync now
Super adminSync now
This sends the current schedule state to all doors.
Only doors with Auto ON will follow it. Doors with Auto OFF will ignore it.
Use this if doors seem out of sync with the schedule.
