TimeWatch TWC

Product Overview

The TimeWatch TWC tenant override and billing system is a stand-alone unit which will interface to
virtually any building control system marketed today. The TimeWatch provides complete override
control through a voice-prompted telephone interface, which can be accessed from any touch-tone
telephone. Time clock function provides time-of-day and holiday schedules for up to 248 individual
loads.

The TWC system software compiles the stored override data for each tenant, and automatically
generates an invoice for override usage, utilizing hourly rates set by the owner for each tenant.

The TimeWatch system gives both the tenant and building owner the best solution when tenant
occupancy is required outside of the lease contract hours. The building owner will recover utility
expenses for system operation, and the tenant will have complete access to schedule override
times themselves.

The TimeWatch TWC is a stand-alone unit, and may be used in conjunction with third party EMS/BAS systems.

The TWC is accessed via a Windows graphics interface program, providing system setup and monitoring, along with
comprehensive invoice preparation.
