When adding a new appointment, it is possible to fill in 8 fields. Tap on the fields to edit them.

 

Start

The field Start handles what time the appointment should start. This could be at an exact time (Absolute) or it could be set to Dawn, Sunrise, Sunset or Dusk according to the time and place the console is set to.

For more information about time and place, see the Date & time topic.

 

Time

If the Start field is set to Absolute, then it is possible to enter a specific time for the appointment by using the Calculator in the Time field.

 

Duration

The Duration field will manage how long time the appointment is active. For most commands, this is not relevant. It has to be at least 1 second.

Hint:
It is not possible to make a duration on a flash button. It will take a Flash Off command to turn it off.

This field will manage how often the appointment will be repeated. Tap on the field and a pop-up will appear with different options:
