• If a Monthly Recurrence
• Perform a BACnet "Write Property" command on Instance Zero of the Timed
Event object. Use the property type:
"PROP_RECURRENCE_MONTHLY_MONTHDAY" if a "specific day of the
month" is desired. This is an integer data-type with a value ranging between 1
and 31.
• Alternately, if a "WeekDay of a MonthWeek" is desired (i.e. the 2nd Tuesday of
the month), first perform a "Write Property" using the property type:
"PROP_RECURRENCE_MONTHLY_WEEKDAY", followed by another "Write
Property" using the property type:
"PROP_RECURRENCE_MONTHLY_MONTHWEEK". These are both integers
with values ranging from 1-7 and 1-5 respectively for WeekDay and MonthWeek.
• If a Yearly Recurrence type:
• Perform a BACnet "Write Property" command on Instance Zero of the Timed
Event object. If it is desired to specify a "Month & Day", then first use the property
type: "PROP_RECURRENCE_YEARLY_MONTH", followed by another "Write
Property" using the property type:
"PROP_RECURRENCE_YEARLY_MONTHDAY". These are both integer data-
type with a value ranging between 1-12 and 1-31 respectively.
• Alternately, if a "Month & WeekDay of a MonthWeek" is desired (i.e the 2nd
Tuesday of June), first perform a "Write Property" using the property type:
"PROP_RECURRENCE_YEARLY_MONTH", followed by another "Write
Property" using the property type:
"PROP_RECURRENCE_YEARLY_WEEKDAY", followed by another "Write
Property" using the property type:
"PROP_RECURRENCE_YEARLY_MONTHWEEK". These are all integer data-
type with values ranging from 1-12, 1-7 and 1-5 respectively.
• If a Custom Recurrence type:
• Perform a BACnet "Write Property" command on Instance Zero of the Timed
Event object using the property type:
"PROP_RECURRENCE_NO_OF_CUSTOM_DATES". This is an integer data-
type with a value ranging between 1 and 12 for an explicit number of dates.
• Next, perform a "Write Property" using the property type:
"PROP_RECURRENCE_CUSTOM_DATES", using a property index of zero (0).
This property is a character string data-type and should use the format:
"MM.DD.YYYY", where MM = the month (1-12), DD = the day (1-31) and YYYY
= the year, e.g. "10.05.2012".
• Continue with additional "Write Property" commands for the remaining custom
dates using a property index of 1, then 2, then 3, etc., until all custom dates have
been transmitted.
• If a Holiday Recurrence type:
• Perform a BACnet "Write Property" command on Instance Zero of the Timed
Event object using the property type: "PROP_HOLIDAY_NAME". This is a
character string data-type with a value being either a Holiday Instance Number,
e.g. "231", or the Name of an existing holiday instance, e.g.
"HOLIDAY_CHRISTMAS".
Step 7: Write the Timed Event "Start Action"
a: Perform a BACnet "Write Property" command on Instance Zero of the Timed
Event object, using the property type: "PROP_START_ACTION_AST_NAME"
(AST = Action Script Template). This property is a character string data-type.
b: Next, perform a "Read Property" for the object type:
OBJECT_ACTION_SCRIPT_TEMPLATE, using the Property:
"PROP_LAST_AST_SELECTED_INSTANCE". This property allows
lightweight reference to the last written to AST which is automatically persisted
in the P-CCS interface.
N o t e : You may send either an existing Action Script Template Instance No., e.g. '321',
or an existing Action Script Template Instance Name. If a Start Action is not
required, the user may provide the string: "NONE" for this property's value.
