The program Scheduler is a powerful tool which facilitates automatically connecting and disconnecting programs using a simple calendar-based user interface. Key features include:
•Drag and drop to add programs into the scheduler.
•Automatically load and unload programs.
•Automatically connect and disconnect individual audio streams, including editing stream settings like IP address, port and encoding details.
•Drag the top or bottom of a scheduled program to adjust the scheduled time.
•Customization of time-zones displayed in the scheduler.
•Day, week, month, list and timeline views available.
•View a list of scheduled upcoming 'events' in a separate panel.
•Enable and disable scheduled events in a snap.
There are several panels associated with the Program Scheduler:
1.Scheduler: Create and manage scheduled "events."
2.Scheduler Events: View a list of all scheduled events.
3.Scheduler History: View previously scheduled events.
Important Notes: •A program attempts to dial and connect at the scheduled event start time. Allow enough dial time when scheduling events. •Allow sufficient time to disconnect and dial between consecutive events. •A scheduled event will fail if a program is already connected. •Consider configuring events in UTC time during daylight saving transitions to simplify set up. •Events shorter than 15 minutes display a 15 minute time slot in the scheduler to enhance event visibility. |
