Relay Scheduling in MacSet
What is Regular Scheduling?
The Regular Schedule allows users to schedule specific relays to turn ON and OFF at defined times, on selected days. This is ideal for automating lights, pumps, ventilation, and other time-based operations.
Regular Schedule Setup Flow
Steps to Configure
-
Toggle ON the Schedule
Enable the Schedule slot to begin configuration. -
Assign a Label
Give your Schedule a name (e.g.,Daily Pump Cycle
) to easily identify it later. -
Select Schedule Type
Choose Regular or Scheduled as the Schedule type. -
Choose Active Days
Select which day(s) of the week the schedule should be applied to. -
Select Relay and Define Action
Choose the relay you want to control. Use the toggle switch to specify whether the relay should be enabled or disabled according to the scheduled times. -
Set Relay ON Time and OFF Time
- Relay ON Time: The time at which the relay will turn ON
- Relay OFF Time: The time at which the relay will turn OFF
-
Save the Schedule
Tap Set to save and activate the schedule.
Regular Scheduling Relay Action Logic
Once configured, the selected relay will:
- Turn ON at the specified ON Time
- Turn OFF at the specified OFF Time
- This ON/OFF cycle will repeat on the chosen days
- No parameter monitoring is involved — this is a fixed, time-based schedule
Regular Scheduling Example
Overheating Protection in Machinery
I want the office lights to turn ON automatically at 6:30 PM and turn OFF at 11:00 PM from Monday to Friday. This helps ensure proper lighting during late working hours without needing manual operation every day.
Evening Lights Automation in Office Premises
Label: Evening Lights
Days Active: Monday to Friday
Relay: Relay 2
Relay ON Time: 6:30 PM
Relay OFF Time: 11:00 PM
Result: Relay 2 will turn ON at 6:30 PM and turn OFF at 11:00 PM every weekday automatically.
