Schedules

The scheduler can schedule regular events. These can be once or twice daily with the two start

and stop times and can happen on any selected weekdays.

The Schedule No. is one of eight schedules that can be set up.

The target relay is the local relay that you want this schedule to control.

W/Days selects the days of the week you want this schedule to control the relay. When high-
lighted in red, the weekday is active.

There are two sets of Start and Stop times for each of the eight schedules. The relay is set

when the start time transitions from inactive to active, ie. at the start time, and reset when
the stop time is reached. It is not held on or off. It can be changed by other events including

the webpage buttons.

The current time originates from an internet time server. It is read only and cannot be
changed. Therefore you must have an internet connection for the scheduler to operate cor-

rectly.
