Cause
Customer wanted an example on how to disable Exit Requests for a Door after hours.
Resolution
There are probably a couple of ways to do this depending on how you are currently controlling door access.
The easiest method would be to use to the "OpenOnExitReqst" attribute of the Door object. Using a PE program to set this to False based on a Schedule point should give you the functionality required.
The PE code for the InfinityProgram in your Access Controller would be similar to below.
===================
' Door_SCH - InfinityNumeric that is being set by a Schedule object
' Door1 - Door object where the Exit Request button is to be controlled
'
' Fall Thru program triggered by Door_SCH
' Functionality: Door_SCH calls this program to run when its value changes.
' This then sets the state of the OpenOnExitReqst attribute in the Door to the
' current state of your Schedule. Reverse this if you want to opposite action.
' "Door1 OpenOnExitReqst = not Door_SCH"
Door1 OpenOnExitReqst = Door_SCH
