Chapter 4: Operation

NOTE: Care must be exercised when setting up Time Sync schedules because a maximum of 8 separate Time Sync schedules can be set up. Each of these 8 schedules could be enabled and have up to a maximum of 12 scheduled time syncs per day. The flash memory in the clock is capable of retaining up to 5 years worth of data created as per OATS Rule 7430 which requires 2 Time Syncs per day. Therefore, if multiple schedules are created and enabled, the length of time that data could be retained might be severely reduced. This should not discourage setting up multiple schedules. Perhaps all of them do not have to be active. At any time, you can simply activate or deactivate a schedule by clicking on the enable box. However, you should be aware that the more time syncs per day that the clock is scheduled to perform, the more data that is going to be stored in the clock, thus filling up flash memory faster.

3. Enter the schedule Name (maximum length is 20 characters).

NOTE: The acceptable characters for a Schedule name are ‘a-z’ upper and lowercase, ‘0-9’, (-) dash, (_) underscore, (*) asterisk, and a space. For example, “Before Trading” is a valid format.

4.Select Time Sync for the Type of schedule template from the drop down menu. The choices for type are; Time Sync, Report, and Backup.

NOTE: A maximum of eight (8) time sync schedules, two (2) Report schedules, and two (2) Backup schedules for a total of 12 separate schedules that can be user created. Report and Backup schedules do not consume any of the on-board clock flash memory.

5.Select the schedule start date from the drop down menus.

6.Select the schedule start time from the drop down menus.

7.Select the schedule recurrence. The choices are: Daily, or Weekly.

If Daily is selected, then define Run Every “X” day(s), and check Run Every: “X” min(s) to enter the number of minutes.

If Weekly is selected, then define Run Every: “X” week(s) and check the days to sync (check box for each day or check box for All).

The default for days = 1, Minimum = 1, and Maximum = 365.

The default for minutes = 120, Minimum = 120, and Maximum = 1439

The default for weeks = 1, Minimum = 1, and Maximum = 52.
