Although usage is expected to be infrequent, you can add a ScheduleImportTag onto an existing schedule component (BooleanSchedule, NumericSchedule, etc.) in the subordinate (JACE) station. Upon a Join, this creates a corresponding “slave” schedule in the Supervisor (and a Niagara ScheduleImportExt descriptor), as well as a Niagara ScheduleExportExt descriptor in this subordinate (JACE) station.
Adding ScheduleImportTags
-
Drag the ScheduleImportTag from the exportTags palette onto the schedule component.
The Name dialog appears. Either accept “ScheduleImportTag”, or enter another name and click . By default, the resulting Niagara slave schedule (and ScheduleImportExt) in the Supervisor use the parent name of the schedule component. By default, the ScheduleExportExt is named
ScheduleNameExport. -
Double-click the ScheduleImportTag
to access its property sheet.
-
In the Supervisor Station property, click the
control and select the Supervisor station.
Note that Station Slot Path is read-only at “
slot:schedules” (Schedules under the NiagaraStation). -
If needed, change the Execution Time property settings.
-
Click
after finishing all property changes.
