I am having trouble getting this working on a RMC3.

I have schedule.dat uploaded to \\NVRAM\\Schedule.dat and a serial send to send that to the Event Scheduler.

I have this in the file:

I only have the following populated in the Event Scheduler to test: (The times from Astronomical Clock)

Enabled
Filename
Morning Hour
Morning Minute
Night Hour
Night Minute
Event 3 Due

Does it need more than this as a base.

You might want to add Edit_Next_Event, Edit_Prev_Event, Edit_Event_Name & Edit_Event_Time to see if it is actually loading the file.

On the processor my file is located in the NVRAM Disk, in a folder that is the same name as the program id tag.
In the program I am using \\NVRAM\\Scheduler.txt

My file looks very similar to yours.
1,Maddie Weekday Disable,1,600,XXXXX--,XXXXXXXXXXXX
2,Maddie Weekday Enable,1,360,XXXXX--,XXXXXXXXXXXX

OK thanks, will try that,

I did notice that I do not have a folder in NVRAM the same as the Program tag so loaded into the root NVRAM.  Would this folder normally be created automatically.

The only time it is auto created is if the program tries to write a file to that nvram

I have added a Folder under the NVRAM folder to be NVRAM/Lighting/ and put theSchedule.dat file there.

Still nothing.

I have seen comments about the editor causing a problem, I am using notepad to create the file.

It looks like it is not loading the txt file.

I recall some time ago issue with the RMC, when it doesnt have the licence for the 10nprograms, wonder if that is it.

Hi Adam,

I haven't used the event schedule in quite some time but I saw the earlier email that you were placing the file in the root nvram directory.  I believe you need to manually create the folder for the program slot where the scheduler code is running and place the file in there.  As one of the other posters said, the folder won't be automatically created unless the code running in that program slot tries to create a file.  However, I believe that is where the scheduler will look for its data file so you have to manually create the folder and place the file there.

Hope this helps

Jay

Thanks Jay

The Event Scheduler code is not under the NVRAM folder but under the Program01 folder itself.  Also tried putting the file there and pointing the Serial Send to that but no luck!

Hmm.  On my CP4 I have some of my code driven by data files that I place in NVRAM on the processor.  Those files are not in folders named Program01, Program02, etc. but in a folder with the name of the associated Program ID Tag.  So, my text files are in folders named AV, HVAC, etc.  Now it could be that your Program ID Tags are named Program01, etc. but I just wanted to throw this out there in case.

Thanks

Jay

I have now done the following:

OK, so trying to make this work I have:

Created a new folder in the \NVRAM folder named Main using Fliezilla and transferred the Lighting.txt  text file to that folder.

Changed program tag to Main in the program, saved and recompiled.

Used \\NVRAM\\Lighting.txt in the Serial Send and set using 1 and also manually in Debugger.

Toggled The Scheduler On and Off using panel.

It still looks like the events are not firing.

Last though, could it be due to the fact that most of the symbols are commented out in Scheduler as I am testing it  and only need the events firing for now and none of the adjustment parameters.
