ActilinoOperation of the ActilinoPage 33• If you want to be reminded of an appointment when you turn the power on, the onlyinput field that contains variables should be the time field.• If you accidentally enter a star for every input field, that appointment cannot beprocessed. You will receive an error message describing this problem.5.1.4.4 A Few Notes on Entering AppointmentsThere are a few things to keep in mind when entering appointments:• Any dates that are in the past cannot be processed, which also includes the lead timefor notification. The Scheduler will inform you that the time of the appointment orreminder has already passed.• The Scheduler checks for any overlap between appointments for the lead time, bothbefore and after the new appointment. Of course, any conflicts with variableappointments are also taken into account in this conflict check. If there are conflictingappointments, you will receive the message: "Entry overlaps (xy z a), continue(Y/N)?". If you answer yes, your new appointment will be entered into the Scheduler'sdatabase. If you respond no, you will be able to edit the appointment.• If two appointments are scheduled at exactly the same time, a warning will appear("Entry overlaps (xy z a), continue (Y/N)?"). As before, you will now have the optionof either confirming the appointment and entering it into the database or changing theappointment by answering no.• Every editable input field except for the lead time can contain either the star symbol(*) or a valid numeric value. The star symbol indicates a variable. An incorrect entry(e.g. appointments with too many variables) will result in an error message("Scheduler: Too many variables in this entry").• If you edit appointments that contain variables later, the variable input fields will showthe original variables instead of the current data values for those fields.• If the time input field is filled entirely with star symbols, then that appointment isconsidered as occurring upon power up of the Actilino on the specified date.• The time input field can contain either all numerical data or all star symbols. No otherkinds of input are valid.• The weekday can be specified only if one of the input fields for the day, month or yearis variable. Otherwise, the weekday is calculated automatically based on the date.• For all variable appointments, the calendar week is not calculated.5.1.4.5 The Appointment ScheduleThe appointment schedule shows all the appointments sorted by date. As alreadymentioned, when you open the Scheduler, you will first see "New entry". If you press the{Cursor Down} key now, the Scheduler will display the next appointment due, if the databasecontains any scheduled appointments. If there are only past appointments in the database,the appointment schedule will begin with the appointment that is the furthest in the past. Ifthere are no appointments in the database, you will remain at "New entry".The sequence of the data fields shown on the schedule corresponds to the sequence ofdata input fields, except that the calendar week and the lead time are not displayed. Thefirst column of the display contains a symbol indicating the type or status of the appointment.The following list explains the meaning of these symbols: |
