About the items in the Schedule Properties dialog box

In the
New Schedule Wizard: Step 1 Schedule Properties
 dialog box, you need to configure the following schedule properties.
Location
The asset for which the schedule was originally created. This could be a container or an individual asset in the asset tree.
Operation
Select the operation you want to schedule:
  • Device Monitor - Change Detect
    This operation is only available for Allen-Bradley Logix 5000 Controller assets that support and are configured for change detection. A Device Monitor - Change Detect schedule gets a list of changes from the controller log. This is less detailed than change information from the programming software, but it includes some information that the programming software cannot track, such as changes from program to run mode using the keyswitch.
    When the Device Monitor schedule is active, the device is monitored. When a change is detected, controller log entries are collected into a report. The next page of this wizard determines how long the changes are collected.
    For more information on change detection in the controller refer to the Logix Designer software help and to the
    Logix 5000 Controllers Information and Status Programming Manual, publication 1756-PM015D-EN-E
    .
  • Disaster Recovery - Backup
    This operation uploads the files from a physical asset (such as a processor or robot) for backup in the FactoryTalk AssetCentre Archive. You will specify the location of the master file later in the wizard.
  • Disaster Recovery - Backup and Compare
    This operation uploads the files from a physical asset (such as a processor or robot) and compares them to the master file stored in the FactoryTalk AssetCentre Archive. To store the physical asset's uploaded file as a new version of the asset's master file in Archive (if the contents differ from the file in Archive), you must select the
    Promote New Upload to Master
    option for the device.
Name
Enter a name for the schedule. This name must be unique.
TIP:
FactoryTalk AssetCentre shows all schedules created in your system. Therefore, it is a good idea to name schedules in a manner that makes filtering them easy. For example, if you include
chiller
 or
mixer
 in a schedule name, you can easily filter the schedules to view only those schedules that contain
chiller
 or
mixer
 in their names.
Description
(Optional) Enter a description for the schedule.
Completion Email List
Enter a list of email addresses to which you want notifications sent when the scheduled operation completes. If you have more than one email address you want to include, separate the addresses with semicolons (;).
If you have
View Address Book
permission, you can select addresses from the FactoryTalk AssetCentre Address Book. Click the
To
 button and complete the
Contacts and Groups
dialog box. If you do not have
View Address Book
permission, you can still enter email addresses manually.
