Holiday Settings
This screen lets you specify up to 32 different holiday times.
Holidays are used by your camera’s scheduling tools to define
different camera behavior on special days (e.g., holidays, planned
vacations, open houses, etc.).
The holiday chart shows the name and date(s) of each holiday, as
well as whether or not it has been enabled (disabled holidays do not
affect your system’s performance).
To edit a holiday, click the pencil icon to the right. This brings up a
small dialog box.
Enter the holiday’s name in the box, and enable it (if desired).
}
If the holiday is on a fixed date (e.g., New Year’s Day is always
January 1st), then choose By Month from the Type selector,
and select the start and end dates. A holiday starts at 12:00
a.m. on the start date, and ends at 11:59 p.m. on the end date,
so it’s okay for a holiday to start and end on the same day.
}
If the holiday has a floating schedule (e.g., Thanksgiving is
the fourth Thursday of November in the USA and the second
Monday of October in Canada), then select By Week from the
Type dropdown. This lets you specify the month, week of the
month, and day of the week that the holiday begins and ends.
}
For holidays that are not scheduled by the civil calendar (e.g.,
Easter, which can take place in March or April), you’ll just
have to edit the holiday dates each year. You can use the By
Date options and select the date from the calendar pickers.
Once you enable one or more holidays, be sure to set the camera
behavior on holidays. Holidays affect the following:
