Adapter - Scheduled Events

This page describes version 2.0.5 of the adapter.

Overview

This adapter is used to schedule events to occur at intervals denoted in CRON notation. Each adapter instance can schedule up to five different events to occur at regular (or irregular) intervals.

The Adapter and Event names specified for each scheduled entry may represent existing adapters (and related events) currently defined in the system, or may be Adapter and/or Event names which do not exist and are representative of the operation you want to occur (e.g. - Adapter Name = "Door Control", Event Name = "Lock").

If the Adapter and/or Event names do not exist, you may receive warnings when configuring a trigger for these values. Verify that the trigger fires properly with your schedule before continuing to configure a related workflow.
