6.11 CALENDAR
The Maestro has a calendar in order to program the automatic broadcast of messages at specific times :
• 700;CALENDAR;0;
By default, the calendar is disabled (0).
If the calendar is enabled (1), messages will be automatically broadcast on the scheduled date and time.
The maximal number of alarms per day is : 30, the maximal number of fixed public holidays is : 10, the maximal number
of special periods is : 10, and the maximal number of audio files for the calendar is : 20.
All messages triggered by the calendar use the same parameters for priority and output relay activation.
• 701;PRIORITY_CALENDAR;10;
By default, messages triggered by the calendar have a priority level of (10).
The value 0 corresponds to the maximal priority and 99 to the minimal priority.
•
702;RELAY_CALENDAR;1;
By default, the output relay R1 is activated (1) during the broadcast of messages triggered by the calendar.
It is possible to activate relay R2 (2) or both relays R1 and R2 (3). Relays can also be deactivated (0).
The calendar messages are scheduled using the following format :
• 710;MONDAY;9H00,10H00,11H00,14H00,15H00,16H00,17H00;sonnerie_1.mp3;1;0;0;
• 720;TUESDAY;9H00,10H00,11H00,14H00,15H00,16H00,17H00;sonnerie_1.mp3;1;1;0;0;
• 730;WEDNESDAY;9H55,10H55,11H55;sonnerie_1.mp3;1;0;0;
For each schedule line, in addition to the code and the name, the value format defines :
- the list of hours, separated by comma, with the form 09H00 or 09H10m14s;
- the filename corresponding to the triggered message;
- the number of broadcasts for this message (optional parameter);
- the delay between each broadcast (optional parameter);
- the message volume (optional parameter).
All messages for the calendar must be placed in the «Calendar» folder.
If several messages should be broadcast on the same day, duplicate the corresponding line, change the list of hours and
indicate the message filename on the newly created line.
The calendar allows weekday schedules, fixed public holiday schedules and special period schedules.
The special period schedules take priority over the fixed public holiday schedules, which take priority over the weekday
schedules : if a special period is defined from Monday, December 25, 2017 to Sunday, December 31, 2017, then it is the
schedule of the special period that will be executed on Monday, December 25, 2017.
The 3 schedule types are similar. Only the code and the first part of the value format will be changed.
For weekday schedules, use codes from 710 to 770 in order to define the week of the day.
• 710;MONDAY;9H55,10H55,11H55;sonnerie_1.mp3;1;0;0;
For fixed public holiday schedules, use code 780 and define the date (day/month).
• 780;CHRISTMAS;25/12;9H55,10H55,11H55;sonnerie_1.mp3;1;0;0;
For special period schedules, use code 790 and define the start date and the end date of the special period (day/month/
year).
• 790;HOLIDAYS;24/12/17;31/12/17;0;
In this last example, the value (0) indicates that there is nothing to broadcast and this can be used to force the calendar
message broadcasts to stop on some days.
If the calendar does not find any match for a given day, it won't broadcast any message that day.
