Weekly Time Scheduler Channel (individual days of the week)
The Weekly Time Scheduler Channel (individual days of the week) does the switching on special weekdays with an adjustable week-periodicity.
Settings
- Start: Time: Absolute start-time on a switching-day. The scheduler-channel will be active beginning with this time.
Start: Sunrise + Offset: The scheduler-channel will be active beginning with the actual sunrise + offset (in minutes) on a switching-day.
Start: Sunset + Offset: The scheduler-channel will be active beginning with the actual sunset + offset (in minutes) on a switching-day. - End: Time: Absolute start-time on a switching-day. The scheduler-channel will be active beginning with this time.
End: Sunrise + Offset: The scheduler-channel will be inactive beginning with the actual sunrise + offset (in minutes) on a switching-day.
End: Sunset + Offset: The scheduler-channel will be inactive beginning with the actual sunset + offset (in minutes) on a switching-day.
Series Model
- Every n week(s): Periodicity.
- 1st week: From this week on all other switching-weeks are calculated by the periodicity.
- Monday...Sunday: Selectable switching-days.
Behaviour
The scheduler is defined by an initial calendar-week and a periodicity. The calendar-weeks before the initial week do not contain any switch event. Afterwards the switching will happen on every selected weekday in every nth week.
If the daytime of the start is lower than the end, the scheduler channel will only be active from the start-time until the end-time of the switching-day. If the daytime of the end is lower than the start, the scheduler-channel will just work inversely. Entering the same time for both start and end would result in an undefined state and will thus be regarded as an input-error.
It is also possible to use the sunrise/sunset function which will calculate both times for the switching-day together with an offset, which can be either positive or negative. These resulting start and end-time however are automatically delimited to the beginning (00:00:00:000) or the end of the day (23:59:59:999).
Scenes
On this screen the scenes can be entered, which shall be executed, when the scheduler-channel turns to either its active or inactive state.
