Calendars

Calendars are used for scheduling time-based control for multiple panel operations as follows:

Automatic setting and/or unsetting of areas
Automatic setting and/or unsetting of other panel operations including triggers, enabling of users, zones, physical outputs, and so on.

At any particular time, any schedule within the calendar can be ‘active’ if its time conditions are satisfied.

Each week of the year is assigned an ordinal number. Depending on the fall of days within a month, there may be 52 or 53 weeks in one year. The SPC calendar implementation conforms to the ISO8601international standard.

A list of configured calendars is displayed.
