A schedule is an entity that defines a set of time constraints that can be applied to a multitude of situations in the system. Each time constraint is defined by a date coverage (daily, weekly, ordinal, or specific) and a time coverage (all day, fixed range, daytime, and nighttime).

Schedule conflicts

You might have a scheduling conflict when two overlapping schedules are applied to the same function. For example, if two schedules are applied to the recording of the same camera.

Security Center can resolve some of these conflicts by giving priority to the most specific (or restrictive) schedule. The specificity of a schedule is determined by its date coverage option.

The following lists the date coverage options in decreasing order of priority:

  1. Specific (Runs only once. Highest priority)
  2. Ordinal (Repeats on a monthly or yearly basis)
  3. Weekly (Repeats every week)
  4. Daily (Repeats every day)
  5. Always (The default schedule. Has the lowest priority)
IMPORTANT: When two overlapping schedules with the same priority level are applied to the same function, you have an unresolved conflict. If the two schedule were applied to an entity, an Entity warning occurs, and the entity with the conflicting configuration is displayed in yellow in the entity browser.
