Bacnet Schedule Export Manager
This component corresponds to schedules or calendars that are pushed to specific BACnet schedule or calendar objects in the
remote device. Each exported schedule points to a component in the station. The Framework writes events in an exported schedule
(or calendar) as a client-side operation to the identified BACnet schedule object in that BACnet device.
