466 WIN-PAK User Guide
• Program the Scheduler to update panel time and
date at least once a day.
• Create a check list for muster procedures.
• Hold regular drills to practice muster procedures.
• Test the Muster Report printer.
At the Time of Muster
• Verify that muster reads from the panel have the
correct time and date.
• If the date and time are wrong, stop the presen-
tation of cards, and send the time and date to the
panel.
• Test the correction.
• Repeat all card presentations. Multiple presenta-
tions of the same card at the Muster reader does
not adversely affect the result of the Muster as
the most recent time/date stamp is the one that
is displayed.
CAUTION: A cold restart of the access control panel sometimes
occurs if there is a serious power surge on the power or
communication lines. This can cause corruption of the
panel’s database and time functions. The PW-2000
panels address the time problem by generating a system
alarm 99 (Panel Database, System Alarms, Panel Reset
Alarm) when the panel experiences a cold restart.
WIN-PAK then sends the current Time and Date to the
panel within 60 seconds of receiving this alarm. The
default time and date after a cold restart is January 1st,
Monday at 12:00 a.m. This time stamp appears on
activities in the Event view and History report. Panel Time
is critical to the proper operation of the muster function as
the most recent event is used to determine the tracking/
muster status of a card holder. If a card is presented to
the Muster reader and the time and date stamp is earlier
than the stamp from another reader location, there will be
no change of status to the Muster (safe) location.
