6. A functional block representing the Scheduler application and all of its static data points are added

to the bottom of the i.LON App (Internal) device tree, and the Scheduler: Configure Web page
opens application opens in the application frame to the right. Note that construction symbol
overlaid onto the Scheduler application icon in the upper-left hand corner of the Web page
indicates that the application has not been configured yet.

7. Optionally, under Event Calendar Effective Period and Event Scheduler Effective Period, you

can configure the period of time for which the Event Calendar and Event Scheduler are active,
respectively. By default, both are active for a 37-year period starting on January 1, 2000 and
ending December 31, 2037. To configure a different effective period, specify the Start Date and
Stop Date. If you clear the check box, the default 37-year effective period is used.

8. By default, the Suppress Event Recovery check box is cleared. This means that the Scheduler

executes the next scheduled event when the SmartServer has been rebooted, the system time has
been changed, or a data point's priority has been reset at the end of a one-time exception. This
enables the SmartServer to maintain the current value stored in the data point if the data point has
been overridden by another application.

You can select the Suppress Event Recovery check box so that when the SmartServer has been
rebooted, the system time has been changed, or a data point's priority has been reset at the end of a
one-time exception, the Scheduler will attempt to restore the values and priorities of the selected
input points by searching for the most recent past event and executing it. Ultimately, the Scheduler
exclusively determines the value of each selected input point (as long as it has the highest priority
assigned to the data point). Note that this is how the Scheduler functioned in the e3 release.

9. Click Submit.

To open the Scheduler application from an existing Scheduler functional block, follow these steps:

1. Click General if the SmartServer is not already operating in General mode. If the SmartServer is

in Driver mode when you click the functional block, the Setup - LON Functional Block Driver
Web page opens instead of the Scheduler application.

2. Click the Scheduler functional block representing the Scheduler to be opened. The Scheduler:

Configure Web page opens in the application frame to the right.

Selecting Data Points

You can select and configure the input points to be updated by the Event Scheduler application. To
select a data point, follow these steps:

1. In the Scheduler: Configure Web page, click the data point box on the right side.
