General notes

• By using real time clock device on KKO it is possible to run schedule tasks.
• We can edit schedule task in kClient software and export it to KKO card
• When a task executes with programmed paradigm, KKO firmware executes some actions; it depends on kind of task.
• For periodic tasks, after executing, a new task is active automatically.
• Scheduler is based on KKO internal clock, so right time settings is important.
• By combine scheduler and conference subsystems, we can call automatic periodic conferences (e.q. each Tuesday at 12:15 pm)
• "Weekends" days mean all Saturdays and Sundays automatically and all "Additional days off" inserted into KKO system. For example: if you establish "weekend" alarm, and given day is weekday (Monday-Friday) and given day is on the additional days off list - this alarm will execute.
• The KKO card makes possible to input up to 15 additional days off where you have to set year, month and day.
• Forty schedule records can be saved in the KKO schedule buffer on KKO card.
• If "Supervisor" user is logged, it is possible to see in data record from KKO what is time and date when next alarm will be calculated (and executed).
• Table of macro records consists schedule records and macro records. Schedule records are executed by timetable whilst macro records are executed buy command.
• All details about internal and external macros are available in macros description.

There are following task modes:

• Notification on phone. Programmed in schedule record directory number is called and the subscriber hears selected announcement or tone signal.
• Notification on consoles with kClient software. Logged-on consoles get sound notification and warning window.
• Hunting service with predefined group and given subscriber - hunter.
• Any conference. This is group of functions for any existing conference or conference called by scheduler.
• Leased conference no 1. This is group of functions for conference no 1 working as a leased.
• Leased conference no 2. This is group of functions for conference no 2 working as a leased.

All functions for any or leased conference are as follow:

• Reservation of the conference. Leased conference is definitely set. If previous conference with the same number is in action, it will be finished and released in order to occupy it for leasing. The owner of such conference is a leasing. If the command concerns any conference, it will be set if although one free conference exists and none conference by scheduler doesn't work.
• Calling predefined group. In leased conference this command is unambiguous. In any conference this command concerns firstly: the conference occupied by scheduler or second: another working conference (with a owner) but not leased.
• Calling a subscriber. In leased conference this command is unambiguous. In any conference this command concerns firstly: the conference occupied by scheduler or second: another working conference (with a owner) but not leased.
• Removing a subscriber from the conference. In leased conference this command is unambiguous. In any conference this command concerns firstly: the conference occupied by scheduler or second: another working conference (with a owner) but not leased.
• Calling an announcement into conference. In leased conference this command is unambiguous. In any conference this command concerns firstly: the conference occupied by scheduler or second: another working conference (with a owner) but not leased. You have to remember only one announcement can be inserted into conference.
• Removing an announcement from the conference. In leased conference this command is unambiguous. In any conference this command concerns firstly: the conference occupied by scheduler or second: another working conference (with a owner) but not leased.
• Closing conference. In leased conference this command is unambiguous. In any conference this command concerns firstly: the conference occupied by scheduler or second: another working conference (with a owner) but not leased. In this case the conference will be finished and released (it will lose a owner).
• Conference password changing. The password for access into leased conference is always obligatory required. This option makes possible to change the password in existed conference (without disconnection).

Following example shows graphic window as example of task's modes. If you click window in the "alarm" column, there is context popup menu where you can enter a mode.

By execution time, schedule tasks can be divided into:

• Single by date
• Every month
• Every day
• Every day on the same day of week
• Working days (except day declared as additionally off)
• Weekends (plus day declared as additionally off)
• Every n days
• Every n hours
• Every n minutes
• Macro

You can choose the time by clicking a window in the "type" column. Popup menu makes it possible for you to select the time. The following examples show how to select the time in the kClient Software.

Weekly:

Periodic:

Macros:

Data export to KKO card

You can load all schedule records from KKO, edit it, change some parameters and reload it to KKO again. You can also work in off-line mode. It is possible to work from the file : load data from the file, edit it and save data to the file.

When you export a task to KKO, it is automatically tested and if data is mismatched you can correct it. The programme suggests how to correct it (a particular ways of correcting):

Removing records from the list

Task removing is possible by means of context menu (right mouse button). The following menu appears:

Option : "Erase all records" - it erases all tasks

Option : "Erase current record" - it erases a current task

Option : "Erase all selected records" - it erases all selected tasks

Remember, that all edit operations appears edit window only. After making necessary changes, you have to export them on the KKO or save it on the file. Otherwise, your changes will be cancelled.

Schedule record's states

In "Stat" column you can see current status of each task. The following states are accessible:

• - editing
• - selected (e.q. for export)
• - active, it waiting for execution
• - nonactive, executed
• - active, running
• - wrong
• - loaded from the file
• - saved on the file
• - exported on KKO

Editing schedule's records

Tasks inserting procedure is as follows:

• To click on "Type" column. Window in "Type" column will be enabled.
• Popup menu opens where you can choose the time of executing for this task. A window in the "Alarm" column will be enabled.
• To click on the "Alarm" column.
• Popup menu opens where you can choose the mode of executing for this task.
• Now, all requirements windows will be enabled (it depends on time and mode).
• By entering the hour and minutes, you have to write the time in "Time" column by one of the paradigms: "h", "hh", "h:m", "hh:mm", "hh-m".
• By entering the date, you have to click the "Date" window - after which the callendar will appear. You have to choose date and enter it by double click.



You should remember, that it enters/shows the date of the nearest task executing. If you enter e.q. "Once a month" and if you want to get task always on the 15-th day of a month, you enter 15-th day of any later month, the task will be executed on declared day and month (even though the 15-th day of an earlier month is appears).

After executing this task, the system arms automatically on 15-th next month.

• Now, you have to enter the "Frequency" parameter (in periodic modes only) and "Phone number" for phone notification.
• In the phone notification mode, after clicking a window in the "Announcement" column, the popup menu makes it possible for you to enter one of the announcements. The called subscriber will hear this announcement.

  

  If no announcement enters, a subscriber will hear a tone signal. You remember, some announcements are used in context situations. Announcement management (recording, creating contexts etc.) is accessible in Settings option.

• In the group calling mode, after clicking a window in the "Group" column, the popup menu makes it possible for you to choose one of the predefined group.

The list of buttons

We can see the following buttons on the schedule window:

- How to read time on KKO.

By this option we can easily check the KKO current time. This is particularly important when you enter new schedule records for time correctness.

or - Communication with KKO.

By these options we can read data from KKO and export one selected task or all the tasks. In writing or reading time, functions of buttons change and make possible to break current operation. It can be usefull when you work with some first records only and you know that the rest of the list is empty.

There are following commands available:

• Import-it reads all (40) records from the card. In order to be sure all data is actual, you have to read all schedule records.
• Export-it sends all (40) records to KKO card.
• Send marked-it sends only these records with status "marked" You can mark one or more records and these all will be send to the KKO.
• Erase marked-it erases on screen and in KKO card all selected records (record with "marked" :
state).

- File operations and the help button.

Option "Load" reads data from "kClient.sh" file to edit window. Option "Save" saves current data from the window to the file. "Help" button calls context help system.

Besides "kClient.sh" file, KKO system saves data on "kCient.sdf" and "kClient.sdk" files too. There are schedule's records description files ("Description" column). In on-line mode if you send data to KKO card, "Description" data saves automatically on "kClient.sdk" file. KKO doesn't get this data.

Additional days off

"Additional days off" section makes possible to insert, to list and to edit all data according to additional days off list in KKO memory. The basic list of buttons is as follow:

- Edit buttons for additional days off list.

Button "Import" makes possible to read all days off from database in KKO. You can insert new day off by button "Add".

- This is list of buttons view at inserting new day moment.

For select the day, the callendar have to be opened by click on the roll symbol.

- Open callendar makes it possible to select new day off.

After selecting new day (single click in callendar) button "Export" becames active and after pressing it and confirmation in additional choice window, the data is transmitted into KKO.

After inserting, you can verify new data by button "Import". New list of data is as follow:

There are new buttons here now: "Erase", "Erase all" and "End".

Button "Erase" erases selected record of this list (selected by click on the row). Button "Erase all" erases all data connected with additional deys off. Both these buttons export data into KKO if you confirm it in right decision window. Button "End" closes list of days.
