Edge Triggering
Things that are programmed to change when a schedule changes are deemed to be edge triggered. This
means that by default, they are only checked and changed when the schedule changes state.

Edge trigger
for invalid
Edge triggering for a schedule programmed with a start time of 06:00 and an end time of 18:00
For example, if a door is programmed to unlock by a schedule, then it will only unlock at the point that the
schedule becomes valid.
If at 10:00am, you assigned this schedule to a door's unlock schedule, then that door will not unlock until
06:00am the following morning. This is because the trigger that unlocks the door is the edge trigger that only
occurs when the schedule changes from invalid to valid.
