Zones and Time Specifications

TM 5-6350-275-10

In the case of months, only the first three letters of the month need be entered. In the case of years, each year should be

entered as a four digit number, such as 1992. Some examples of the first option for dates are:

Example

The second option available for date is the wild card (*) which is used to indicate all dates. Also, if you omit

the entry the system assumes the all dates option.

(f) Zones and Time Specifications. Listed below are examples of zones and time specifications. The first

entry allows access to all zones on all days; the second, zones 20 to 25 from 0900 to 1830; the third, zones 15 and 16 at

all times on 16 February 1990; and the fourth, zones 1 to 5 during the hours of 0235 to 1005 on all days from Monday to

Friday. The remaining two entries show how combinations of zones, times, and various dates can be entered. Note that

the examples shown would not be used within the same specification, since the first entry allows uninhibited access on all

days and at all times.
