This menu is found on all Chime Master bell ringing equipment with a two line display and sixteen button keypad (98% of our products to date). It is used to set a range of time over a a number of days to a style of time striking or outside audio level.

== Open the menu ==

Open the Time strike/auto level setup menu by pressing the front panel green ''Enter'' button so that you read ''Main Menu'' on the top line of the display. Press any gray cursor button until the flashing lower line reads ''System Setup Menu'' then press the ''Enter'' button again.

The top line should now say ''System Setup Menu'' and you may press any gray cursor button until the lower line is blinking ''TimeStrike/AutoLevel''. One more press of the ''Enter'' button will get us there.

When you open this menu, the display will always read:

12A to 12A Level:6
SUN .. SAT SET PROG

This is because this menu is only used to change ranges of time, not review them. To review the changes you make here, refer to the [[View-edit schedule menu]].

== Set the range to change ==

When we open the menu the selected range is the entire week, 24-7. If you want to set the volume level the same for all times, skip to Levels, below.

=== Beginning and ending hour ===

Notice the little word between the hours is ''to''. This means the modifications made to the schedule will begin at the hour on the left up to the hour on the right (not inclusive). All quarters of the hour before the ending hour will be modified.

The beginning hour will be blinking on midnight when we open the menu. To change the beginning hour, only the cursor down button will work. Press it until the hour you want to start is blinking. Always double check the A/P (morning, afternoon) indicators.

Press the cursor right button until the ending hour is blinking. Since it is set to end at midnight, only the cursor up button will work. Press cursor up until you get the hour you want the changes to end. It will only go as far as the hour after the beginning, so we can change a minimum of one hour per day in this menu.

=== Beginning and ending days ===

Press the cursor right button again and the beginning day will blink. Select the day you wish to begin making changes with the cursor up and down buttons.

Press the cursor right button again to select the ending day. If you select the same day as the beginning, only that day will be modified. If you select the day before the beginning day, the entire week will be modified.

== Set the Level or Time Strike style ==

Press the cursor right button again to the level and style selection. There are sixteen positions you can select with the cursor up and cursor down buttons.

=== Levels ===

Press the cursor up or down to change the volume level from its default of '''Level:6''' to a louder (higher number) or softer (lower number) value. Note that no changes will take place until you select ''Set Prog'' and press the green ''Enter'' button.

=== Time Strikes ===

If you continue to press the cursor up and down buttons, you will eventually get past the volume control settings and into the time strike styles. Basically we are determining which quarters we ring and how (with or without the chime melody, or not at all). The selections are:

*'''TS OFF''' this clears the time strike function from the selected range
*'''Full Chm''' Chiming on all quarters followed by the hour stroke at the top
*'''Half Chm''' Chiming on the hour and half-hour followed by hour stroke at the top
*'''Top Chm''' Chime and hour stroke at the top of the hour, other quarters silent
*'''Chm Stk''' Chime and hour stroke at the top, single strike other three quarters
*'''Full Stk''' Hour stroke at the top, single strike on other three quarters
*'''Half Stk''' Hour stroke at the top, single strike on the half hour
*'''Top Stk''' Hour stroke at the top, all other quarters are silent

== Set the program ==

This writes the program selected in the upper right of the display into the range of active schedule time-slots shown on the left side of the display.

Use the cursor left or cursor right button to make ''Set Prog'' blink. Press the green ''Enter'' button to commit the changes to memory.

You can select another range of time with a different program to make change other ranges of the weekly schedule before exiting, but remember to ''Set Prog'' for each one.

== Exit the menu ==

After you have finished setting time strikes and levels, press the red ''Cancel'' button. Don't forget to [[View-edit schedule menu|review your changes]].
