Title: Task Scheduler with multple events
Post by: livewireaus on December 24, 2024, 03:24:33 am

Hi Jan

Is it possible to have a task with multiple triggers in the task scheduler?

For example:

event days:"1234567" times:"00:00"
event days:"1" times:"09:00, 15:00, 20:00"
event days:"2" times:"09:00, 16:00"
event days:"3" times:"09:00"
event days:"4" times:"16:00, 20:00"
event days:"5" times:"09:00, 16:00, 19:00"
event days:"6" times:"09:00, 16:00"
event days:"7" times:"15:00"

Or do I need to look at creating an event as a separate task?

It looks like I can have an event with multiple times for a day or days, but not multiple events with single or multiple times.

Thanks

Ross

EDIT:  I noticed I was running an older version and have updated the software to the current version.  After restarting, this may now be working.  I will monitor and advise.

Everything in your example seems to be correct, even if entered into the same Item. I'll also check the functionality myself.

Hi Jan., I have tested it and updated the software to the current version since contacting you.  I can confirm it is now working as expected, which is excellent.
Now, I can run one less software package and have RDS text changes automated inside Magic RDS.

My next goal is to insert other data (weather, news, traffic, etc).

Thank you!
