Concept
Schedule Events
A schedule has two types of events: weekly events and exception events. Weekly events occur every week at specified times. Exception events occur when the schedule deviates from the weekly schedule, such as during holidays. Exception events override the weekly events when there is an overlap.
For each schedule you can set a default value. The default value goes into effect after the exception events and weekly events are complete or relinquish control. For example, the weekly event for a device ends at 17:00. The device ran at a value of 3 (high) throughout the event. There are no scheduled events after the weekly event. Because you have assigned 0 as the default value, the device adjusts to the default value and turns to 0 (off). The value remains at 0 until the next scheduled event.
Events occur in the following order of precedence:
Exception events
Weekly events
Default value
Example:
The weekly event for a device is set to '08:00 - 17:00'. An exception event is set to '17:00 - 20:00' for a specific date. The exception event overrides the weekly event so that the device only runs from 17:00 to 20:00 on the specified date.

Priorities
Priority is a number that corresponds to a preassigned level of importance. When used in schedules, priority numbers range from one to sixteen. One is the most important or highest priority and sixteen is the lowest priority.
For more information, see Priorities .
Time Zones
When you create a schedule, the time zone of the EcoStruxure BMS server that contains the schedule determines the execution of the events. If the schedule is copied to an EcoStruxure BMS server in a different time zone, the specified dates and times relate to the new time zone.
