| + | |||
| + | Schedules can be configured to run in 5 ways: | ||

| + | * [[#daily|Daily]] | ||
| + | * [[#weekly|Weekly]] | ||
| + | * [[#monthly|Monthly]] | ||

| + | Macros triggered by Holiday schedules will trigger their actions at random times between the start and stop time of the schedule, with each action only being repeated as many times as defined in the macro properties.\\ | ||
| + | Single commands triggered by holiday macros will randomly repeat for the duration of the schedule start and stop times. | ||
