# Schedules

Schedules allow users to specify dates, times and recurrence patterns for changing the settings of your lighting zones.

You will start with a blank schedule by default. ![](https://3013735970-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-LHsf6g_Ofn0j2lDmezV%2F-LHsf7JMQCMCd5qm9wTd%2F-LHsfB2lWQjMLwL_y_94%2Fschedules-02.png?generation=1532106699452626\&alt=media)

Choose a name for your schedule, such as "Weekly Schedule." ![](https://3013735970-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-LHsf6g_Ofn0j2lDmezV%2F-LHsf7JMQCMCd5qm9wTd%2F-LHsfB2nfYqMKEThexBe%2Fschedules-03.png?generation=1532106699584216\&alt=media)

## Time & Date

Next, select the time and recurrence for your schedule. Click "Edit" next to "Select Time." ![](https://3013735970-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-LHsf6g_Ofn0j2lDmezV%2F-LHsf7JMQCMCd5qm9wTd%2F-LHsfB2pEBW_l4pH66Hj%2Fschedules-04.png?generation=1532106700272639\&alt=media)

From here you can choose the exact time you want your scheduled event to happen. ![](https://3013735970-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-LHsf6g_Ofn0j2lDmezV%2F-LHsf7JMQCMCd5qm9wTd%2F-LHsfB2rWNFctF--IkaD%2Fschedules-05.png?generation=1532106697257573\&alt=media)

### Sunrise/Sunset (Astronomical Clock)

You can also schedule events relative to sunrise and sunset times, calculated automatically according to the location of your Site. Choose an amount of time before or after sunrise or sunset for the event to occur. ![](https://3013735970-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-LHsf6g_Ofn0j2lDmezV%2F-LHsf7JMQCMCd5qm9wTd%2F-LHsfB2tfBU3jmPxwJ_k%2Fschedules-06.png?generation=1532106697918891\&alt=media)

### Recurrence

By default, event recurrence is "Daily." Using these options, you can also specify events to recur weekly, monthly, yearly, or once on a specific date.

#### Weekly

![](https://3013735970-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-LHsf6g_Ofn0j2lDmezV%2F-LHsf7JMQCMCd5qm9wTd%2F-LHsfB2vcomYKvhzEE9v%2Fschedules-10.png?generation=1532106689039551\&alt=media)

Select multiple days of the week to have your event occur on those days every week. ![](https://3013735970-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-LHsf6g_Ofn0j2lDmezV%2F-LHsf7JMQCMCd5qm9wTd%2F-LHsfB2xBV0SUh6959d-%2Fschedules-11.png?generation=1532106698540842\&alt=media)

The "Interval" option specifies how many weeks (or days, etc.) apart the event will occur.

#### Monthly

Select one or more days of the month for your event to occur on, such as "Every 9th day" or "Every 1st and 14th days".

*Note that not all months have 30th and 31st days, and thus will not fire every month.* ![](https://3013735970-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-LHsf6g_Ofn0j2lDmezV%2F-LHsf7JMQCMCd5qm9wTd%2F-LHsfB2zLW_heanmt_id%2Fschedules-13.png?generation=1532106699628473\&alt=media)

#### Yearly

Yearly recurrences allow for annual schedules, such as fixed-date holidays. ![](https://3013735970-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-LHsf6g_Ofn0j2lDmezV%2F-LHsf7JMQCMCd5qm9wTd%2F-LHsfB30IjOGvwdw7Awq%2Fschedules-14.png?generation=1532106697776831\&alt=media)
