Schedules define a specific period of time
when a user can receive alarm notifications, or to restrict the time frame when threshold
alarms can be triggered for a Location.
Before you can apply schedules to users
or Locations, make sure scheduling functionality is enabled.
In Alarm Templates select Schedules > Add.
On the Add Schedule window define the schedule settings:
Schedule
You can create a schedule before setting it to Enabled. Once the schedule is applied to users or Locations, you can quickly enable or
disable it here. If a schedule is disabled, thresholds are always monitored and
notifications always sent for threshold excursions.
Name
Type a unique name for the schedule.
Time zone
Select the time zone you want the schedule to use. If your company
monitors conditions in multiple time zones, you may want to create schedules for
each time zone.
Start date
Choose a start date by typing in the text box or choosing a date from
the calendar. This date defines the day of the week to start the schedule.
Repeat schedule every
