Schedule Entry Programming Tips

Data Entry Guidelines
When entering data into a schedule:
  • Days of the week are 1 (Sunday) through 7 (Saturday).
  • Time is HH:MM using a 24-hour clock.
  • Date is MM:DD.
  • Schedule types are Days of the Week (1), Day Range (2), Date (3), and Always (4).
When setting up a schedule with multiple types, organize them in the following order:
  1. Days
  2. Day Range
  3. Date
  4. Always
  5. If a schedule has entries that are the same time, the entry towards the top of the list (lower number) has priority.
