The scheduling application in Tracer ES overlays the native scheduling capabilities of the individual building control panels. When you create, edit, or delete schedules in Tracer ES, your changes are stored in Tracer ES and sent to the building panels as quickly as necessary. You can use the Tracer ES scheduling application to complete the following building-level tasks:
In addition to the building-level scheduling capabilities, you can use Tracer ES global scheduling abilities to make global changes to schedules and to create, view, edit, or delete the emergency schedule.
Note: Tracer ES does not recognize holidays as a separate schedule type. Use exception schedules to create holidays.
It is possible to use Tracer ES and Tracer Summit (or other tools) to manage the same building schedules simultaneously, but doing so is not recommended. Trying to use two or more different tools to manage the same panel database could create confusion and cause unwanted results. It is a best practice to insist that your users and administrators only use Tracer ES for schedule management.
