Setting up a time link
Time links are used to connect several time spans together. This is useful if you do not want to
record camera images on a certain day. The following steps show the configuration of a time
link with no recording on holidays and the first day of each month:
Add an “Outside business hours” timer (time span) (see example above “Setting up a time
span”).
Add a second “Start of month” timer (time span) with the following data: Date: 01.01.**** to
01.12.****; Times: 00:00 to 00:00 (the stars here are used as wildcards for each year).
Add a third “Holidays” timer (time span) with the following data:
Date: 25.12.**** and 26.12.****; Times: 00:00 to 00:00 (a time span can be assigned to
several days using the Add button).
Add a Yearly recording timer (time link).
Add the Outside business hours time span to the “also / always if” list using the
button.
Add the Holidays and Start of month time spans to
the “except if” list by pressing the
button, then save the settings.
Linked processes are then inactive on holidays
(25th and 26th December) and on the first day of
each month.
Note:
Adding time links allows the creation of extremely complex timers. For example, if you wish to
activate a timer permanently on weekends and only outside business hours on workdays, then
you can also do this by adding several definitions within a time span.
