Call Scheduling
Call scheduling allows you to dictate when a remote node should be called and for how long.

Introduction to Call Scheduling

33.1
The call scheduling feature allows the Contivity 221 to manage a remote node and dictate when a
remote node should be called and for how long. This feature is similar to the scheduler in a
videocassette recorder (you can specify a time period for the VCR to record). You can apply up to
4 schedule sets in Menu 11.1 - Remote Node Profile. From the main menu, enter 26 to access
Menu 26 - Schedule Setup as shown next.

6 ______________
Lower numbered sets take precedence over higher numbered sets thereby avoiding scheduling
conflicts. For example, if sets 1, 2, 3 and 4 are applied in the remote node, then set 1 will take
precedence over set 2, 3 and 4 as the Contivity 221, by default, applies the lowest numbered set
first. Set 2 will take precedence over set 3 and 4, and so on.
You can design up to 12 schedule sets but you can only apply up to four schedule sets for a remote
node.
