Notes:
Month is not a valid period. If you want to make a monthly schedule, use
a combination of repeat number, period and set to do so. See the example in the
Repeat Number section for details. You can also specify sunrise or sunset . In
order to take advantage of sunrise/sunset calculations in the Information Station,
you need to determine you longitude, latitude, and time zone. These can be
determined online by typing your zip code into many websites. Simply do a
search for longitude latitude zip code in your favorite search engine like
www.google.com to find them out. Then enter them into the Geographic
Settings in Information Station’ s
INI file - is.ini
. Information Station calculates
the sunrise/sunset values and replaces the start time with them, after the first
execution has taken place.
Examples:
R:sunday
R:year
