The Period determines when the event is run. You can specify the period in hh:mm:ss (hours:minutes:seconds), for example:
|
Period |
Comment |
|---|---|
|
1:00:00 |
Run the event every hour |
|
6:00:00 |
Run the event every six hours |
|
72:00:00 |
Run the event every three days |
|
Monday |
Run the event each Monday |
|
15th |
Run the event on the 15th of each month |
|
25th June |
Run the event on the 25th of June |
You can also specify the time of day to synchronize the event, for example:
|
Period |
Comment |
|---|---|
|
6:00:00 |
Synchronize the event at 6:00 am |
|
12:00:00 |
Synchronize the event at 12:00 midday |
The Time synchronizes the time of day to run the event and, with the Period, determines when the event is run; for example:
|
Time |
6:00:00 |
|
Period |
1:00:00 |
In this example, the event is run every hour, on the hour. If you start your runtime system at 7:25am, your event is run at 8:00am, and then every hour after that.
