Dedicated Schedule
Setting up a Scheduling Task
1. Two methods are available for setting up the schedule. Weekly Schedule is setup for routine
jobs performed on a weekly basis. Dedicated Schedule is setup for a job working in a special
time period. If you set up both at the same time, jobs will be scheduled based on both settings
(Weekly Schedule “or” Dedicated Schedule).
Weekly Schedule: administrators can mark the clock-based time period for each weekday in
green to set up the schedule. Choosing the ADD option can add the time period, and the DEL
option can diminish the time period.
Dedicated Schedule: To set up a Dedicated Schedule, administrators can change the date
and time manually, or select the date from the calendar (pull down menu). When the Start
and End time are set up, click + to add this dedicated time period to the Time Period box.
To remove a time period, select one from the box and click - .
2. SoftDVR™ Pro provides 2 jobs—Record and Remote Service—whereas SoftDVR™ Lite
provides only Record.
3. Administrator should select the cameras that the events work with when Scheduling is
enabled in the Camera/Device list. This list is decided by the Camera/ Device Setting.
4. Administrators can describe the nature of this task in Job Remark (max. 60 bytes).
5. After taking care of the above settings, click on New Job to add this task into the list. To
modify a task, select the task in the list and modify settings, and then click on Modify Job to
update. To remove a task, select the task and click on Remove Job to delete the task from the
list.
