Professional setup

Use the simple timer first, then graduate to controlled timing.

Use tour scripts, education policies, gallery rules, accessibility procedures, visitor group schedules, and authorized education staff as the source of truth.

Use the timer for tour pacing only, not for visitor access, interpretive content approval, artwork handling, gallery safety, accessibility, security, or policy decisions.

Keep tour rosters, departure notes, gallery stop notes, visitor questions, return notes, and education program updates in approved ticketing, visitor service, circulation, collections, facilities, education, membership, security, or event systems.

Use an XTimer room when docents, education staff, visitor services, floor staff, school group leads, and supervisors need one shared docent tour departure countdown.
