General
The Search and Override Screen allows you to select an occupied,
unoccupied, or automatic mode of control for a zone by simply
entering the room number (or room description) and then selecting
the new control option you would like. The most common
application for this feature is controlling the occupied/unoccupied
schedule for individual hotel rooms.
When you access this screen for the fi rst time, the ECC/WCC II
system will automatically go through a process of searching for
each satellite controller on the loop and storing the data from the
“Description” input on the EA Driver, Dual Limit and Time Clock
Screens. If you make any changes to the “Descriptions” after that,
you need to manually force the system to search the satellites again
by moving the cursor to the “Home” position on the Search and
Override Screen and pressing
and then
, holding both
keys down for an instant and then releasing both keys at the same
time.
A message will appear at the bottom of the screen asking which
satellite is to be rebuilt. Input the satellite number and press
.
Note:
Rebuilding tables for Search Screens is an entirely
different function than rebuilding data tables from the Utility
Screen.
String to Match: Rm 200
The “String to match” is the “Description” that you have previously
input on an EA Driver, Dual Limit or Time Clock Screen. The
system will distinguish between small and capital letters, so you
need to remember exactly how the “Description” was set up.
If the user has “Level 0” access, the ECC/WCC II will fi nd and
display descriptions that start with the “~” character only. If the
user has “Level 1” access, the ECC/WCC II will fi nd and display
descriptions that start with either the “~” character or the “^”
character. All of the descriptions will be matched if the user has
“Level 2” or “Level 3” access.
If you have a level 2 or 3 password, and you do not remember the
exact “Description” for the zones, you can enter an asterisk (*) as
a wild card, and all of the descriptions will appear. Or, if you know
that all rooms start with “Rm,” you can enter Rm, and all of the
descriptions that have Rm in them will appear.
The fi rst twenty zones will appear on the screen. If more than
twenty zones match the description, use the arrow keys to move
the cursor down to the area on the screen where the zones are
displayed and press
.
Continue Present Search: NO
You can eliminate the unwanted zones on the screen by moving the
cursor to “Continue Present Search,” pressing the
until “Yes” appears, and then pressing
. Now move the
cursor to “String to Match” and enter the rest of the description that
you want to match.
Execute State Change: Yes
After you have located the zone that you want to override, use the
arrow keys to move the cursor (>) to left of that zone. Then press
the
and you should see either an O, N, or A appear
under the “New State” heading. If you select an O, the zone will
be forced to the “Occupied” mode. If you press the
again, an N will appear for “Non-Occupied.” Press the
bar> one more time, and an A will appear for “Automatic.” After the desired choice appears on the screen, press and the cursor will move up to the “Execute State Change” fi eld. If you bar> until “Yes” appears, and then press .
