Suppress switching on at certain timesWith the yearly timers “B006 SummerBreak”, “B020 EasterBreak” and “B049WinterBreak”, a time period (e.g. holidays) can be defined during which the switch-on via the standard switching times is suppressed.With the weekly timer “B017 TimeLock”, it can be defined, on which weekdays andat which time the switch-on via the standard switching times is suppressed.The event switching times are not suppressed and continue to switch. This allows aplanned switch-on and off, despite the suppressed standard switching times.Figure 2-6: Blocks for suppressing standard switching times
