Time Frames Definition
P0724352 Standard 1.0
The Time Frames Definition feature defines the shift, week, and period
time frames used in the reports and schedules. A time frame represents the
amount of time a report covers.
Note: The time frames must be identical across the network. An error
message occurs and the report may not be generated if the values on
this screen are not the same as the time frames assigned at the nodal
sites.
In NAC, a week represents seven calendar days. The first day of the week
can be selected to suit the network supervisor's needs. Periods usually
represent calendar months. Up to 13 periods can be defined. The combined
periods span a full calendar year. The shift is used to divide the day into a
maximum of five shifts by combining interval data stored in the database.
The first shift always starts at midnight and the last always ends at
midnight.
