3.4 Holiday Codes
Figure 3.3 Holiday Codes Window
Holiday codes define what dates are considered holidays by a particular site or location. A counter
at the bottom of the holidays form shows the number of currently defined holidays. In addition, a
list of common U.S.A. holidays is provided for ease of use. Selecting a checkbox for a common
holiday marks that holiday on the calendar.
To define holidays, select the appropriate calendar to modify from the list box at the top left, and
select the dates on that calendar to define as a holiday, or use the common holidays, which also
marks the dates on the calendar.
Keep in mind that every calendar must contain at least one holiday code. Any calendar that does
not contain any holiday codes is not saved by the system.
Holiday codes are commonly used to specify separate time code schedules for set holidays, but like
time codes, the actual usage depends on the application or device in which they are implemented.
Clicking on the Restore button restores the holiday settings present at the beginning of the plug-in
session. Once the plug-in application is closed the previous settings will be lost only if changes
have been downloaded (Applied) to the node. Clicking on the Clear button removes all selected
holidays from the screen. The clear command is local to the current IFI Workstation, and only
when you click on Apply the Workstation sends the updated holiday settings over the network.
