TriggerScheduler

This is the default view of TriggerSchedule components. You use this view to configure schedule events in a TriggerSchedule. Trigger schedules are defined by a combination of calendar day (or days) and trigger event time(s). Trigger times apply to all trigger events (calendar-side entries).

Double-click a TriggerSchedule to see its default Trigger Scheduler view, as shown below.

The Trigger Scheduler has two sides:

  • The calendar (left) side where you add events. It operates like the CalendarScheduler view.
  • The time picker (right) side where you add trigger times for the schedule to fire its trigger output. Includes the ability to add repeating intervals.
 
NOTE: Trigger times, as set in the time picker, apply to all calendar events (if more than one).
 
Existing trigger events (if any) are listed in the event table by name and summary. When you select a trigger event, its day(s) of occurrence are highlighted in green in the monthly calendars at the top of the view. Trigger times are listed in the time picker area. The screen capture shows a trigger for each hour from 12 AM to 7 PM.
