Creating Events

For an explanation of the difference between schedules and events, as well as important details to know, see Know Before Beginning in Managing Schedules and Events.

For an overview, watch the video below. For details, consult the following written information.

  1. Go to Schedule Manager , then Calendar (if not already selected).

  2. On the calendar, select and drag from the start time to the stop time of the event you want to create, which opens the Create Event window.

  3. Enter an Event Name.

  4. Select the Schedule to use for this event from the drop-down list.

  5. If necessary, adjust the event's Start Time and End Time.

  6. Choose a Priority for the event from the dropdown menu.

    Note: KMC Commander schedules write to a default priority of 16. If a KMC Commander schedule will command a device, change the Schedule Write Priority and Holiday Schedule Write Priority in Settings > Protocols to an appropriate (higher) level for the controlled devices. To eliminate conflict with other schedules in a device, delete, set to NULL, or set to a lower priority level any schedules internal to the device or written by another device.

  7. For weekly events, select Weekly from the Repeat dropdown menu, then select the checkboxes for the days of the week you want the event to repeat on.

  8. Select Save.

  9. Select Close, or repeat steps 3 through 8 to create more events using the window.
