Operating Reference Scheduling 3 This section provides background information on Schedules of Desigo CC. For related procedures, see the step-by-step section. 3.4.1 BACnet Schedules You use BACnet scheduling to automatically command points at prescribed time intervals. You can create daily or weekly schedules for BACnet field panels. Each BACnet panel stores its own calendar and schedule objects, and a BACnet panel can store and run multiple calendars or schedules at the same time.

Save: Saves the command object to the system.
Operating Reference Scheduling 3 station schedules can process both BACnet and non-BACnet object types (BACnet schedules process only BACnet object types). You can also create exceptions to schedules. When a management station exception is ON, it overrides the weekly schedule. When the exception is OFF, control returns to the weekly schedule. Values are displayed as per value scaled units (if configured). For more information, see Value Scale Units.
3 Operating Reference Scheduling In this example, the Active status of the schedule set at 6 p.m. continues till 9 a.m. the next day. There is no change of value at midnight because the active status continues as it finds the same active entry at 12.00 a.m. midnight. Example 2: Active Value: 50, Inactive Value: 60: Time period for the schedule (Active: 9:00 a.m., Inactive: 6:00 p.m.
Operating Reference Scheduling 3 In this example, the Inactive status of the schedule set at 6 p.m. continues till 9 a.m. the next day. There is no change of value at midnight. This is because the Inactive status continues as it does not find an Active entry at 12.00 a.m. midnight. If there is no entry post mid night, then it is by default considered as an Inactive state. However, if the Inactive state is to be discontinued then an Active entry is to be added at midnight.
3 Operating Reference Scheduling Daily Management Station Schedule You can create a daily schedule from the Sub-Type drop down list in the Setup tab and specify either similar active or inactive values for all days of the week or different values for individual days from the Schedule Entries tab.
