Notes: Month is not a valid period. If you want to make a monthly schedule,
use a combination of repeat number, period and set to do so. See the example
in the Repeat Number section for details. You can also specify sunrise or
sunset. In order to take advantage of sunrise/sunset calculations in the
DVMHD, you need to determine you longitude, latitude, and timezone. These
can be determined online by typing your zipcode into many websites. Simply
do a search for longitude latitude zip code in your favorite search engine like
www.google.com to find them out. Then enter them into the DVMHD.INI file
or with the serial or UDP interface. The DVMHD calculates the sunrise/sunset
values and replaces the start time with them, after the first execution has taken
place.
Examples:
R:sunday
R:year
R:sunset
