Scheduling an Action
An action can be regularly performed at a preset time interval instead of
being triggered by a specific event. For example, you can make the PX
report the reading or state of a specific environmental sensor regularly by
scheduling the "Send Sensor Report" action.
When scheduling an action, make sure you have a minimum of 1-minute
buffer time between this action's execution time and creation time.
Otherwise, the scheduled action will NOT be performed at the specified
time if the buffer time is too short. For example, if you want an action to
be performed at 11:00 am, you should finish scheduling this action at
10:59 am or earlier.
To schedule any action(s):
1. Choose Device Settings > Event Rules. The Event Rule Settings
dialog appears.
2. Click the Scheduled Actions tab.
3. Click New.
4. In the "Timer name" field, type a name for this scheduled action. The
default name is New Timer <n>, where <n> is the sequential number
starting at 1.
5. Make sure the Enabled checkbox is selected, or the PX will not carry
out this scheduled action.
6. Select the desired time frequency from the Execution Time field and
then specify the time interval or a specific date and time in the Time
field.
