APPENDIX B: DETAILED
COMMAND
REFERENCE MATERIALS
Time-Event Parameter Definitions
ITEM
The Item number is a reference number to identify the
Time-Event. When the system processes Time Events,
it does so in order, from 1 to 64. If two different events
are scheduled to occur at the same time, the first one
in the table will execute just before the second one.
BEGINNING DATE AND TIME (START TIME)
This designates the starting time for an event. A Time
Event will only occur between its start time and its end
time. An event that is scheduled to take place only
once (see of the interval value description) will happen
at its exact begin time. Events can also be scheduled to
repeat at certain intervals; the event will be active from
its start time to its end time. The processes the Time
Event Table once every five minutes, requiring the
minutes portion of the time be a multiple of five. Do
not use slashes or colons in Date or Time values.
ENDING DATE AND TIME (STOP TIME)
The end time specifies when a repeating Time Event
should stop. It is entered the same as begin time. To
ensure proper execution of an event, its end time
should not be set to an earlier date than its begin time.
To indicate that an event should never stop repeating,
enter 0 for the month (in this case, 0's, or any
date/time, may be entered for the rest of the Ending
Date and Time values).
FUNCTION
The function value specifies what action is to take
place for each event. The operations available to Time
Event functions in the are listed in the MS-TIME-
EVENT command description. The selected function
will be automatically executed by the Time Event at
the appropriate time(s). Some of the functions rely on
the MS-TIME-EVENT-COMMAND strings to specify
one or more CCL commands which will be executed
when the Time-Event occurs.
IMPORTANT NOTES (PERTAINING TO THE
USE OF CCL COMMANDS IN AND DURING
TIME-EVENTS):
1. CCL commands that affect the operating modes of
the multiplexer (such as the MS-MON-A-DISPLAY,
MS-OPERATION-SIMPLEX, and the MS-
OPERATION-DUPLEX commands) can be
specified to activate during Time-Events; however,
they will not have an effect on the Multiplexer®
until after all other Time-Events specified to activate
at a give time, have been activated. In addition, if
the same command is used multiple times, during
different Time-Events that activate at the same time,
only the one in the last Time-Event executed will
have any effect on the Multiplexer® operaion.
2. Do NOT send any CCL commands to the
Multiplexer® while Time-Events are executing,
since they may be overridden or may override the
commands executed by the Time-Events themselves.
LOGGING (L)
Logging indicates whether the Time Event execution
will cause a message to be sent to the console and
displayed on the Multiplexer® Monitor A.
INTERVAL (INT)
This column determines how often an event will
automatically repeat. Available intervals include: once,
every five minutes, every hour, daily, monthly, and
once a year. A value of "once" means that the event
will only happen at its exact begin time. Other
intervals (when they are shorter than the duration
between the begin and end times) specify that the
event will occur repeatedly from its begin time to its
end time. An interval of five minutes means that the
event will occur every five minutes. Other intervals are
calculated relative to the begin time: if a daily event
starts at 01/01/92 08:15, it will execute every day
thereafter at exactly 8:15 AM.
