To activate the connection, select Scheduled Connection Enable and toggle it to On. You can make the scheduled connection inactive by toggling Scheduled Connection Enable to Off.

Decide how often the connection should take place by selecting How Often and choosing Weekly or Once Only from the pop-up menu.

The Schedule Type allows you to set the exact weekly schedule or once-only schedule. Options are:

Forced Up, meaning that this connection will be maintained whether or not there is a demand call on the line.

Forced Down, meaning that this connection will be torn down or blocked whether or not there is a demand call on the line.

Demand-Allowed, meaning that this schedule will permit a demand call on the line.

Demand-Blocked, meaning that this schedule will prevent a demand call on the line.

Periodic, meaning that the connection is retried several times during the scheduled time.

If How Often is set to Weekly, the item directly below How Often reads Set Weekly Schedule. If How Often is set to Once Only, the item directly below How Often reads Set Once-Only Schedule.
