Call Scheduling

Call scheduling (applicable for PPPoA or PPPoE encapsulation only) allows you to

dictate when a remote node should be called and for how long.

34.1 Introduction to Call Scheduling

The call scheduling feature allows the HomeSafe to manage a remote node and dictate when a
remote node should be called and for how long. This feature is similar to the scheduler in a
videocassette recorder (you can specify a time period for the VCR to record). You can apply up to
4 schedule sets in Menu 11.1 — Remote Node Profile. From the main menu, enter 26 to access
Menu 26 — Schedule Setup as shown next.

Figure 34-1 Menu 26 Schedule Setup

Lower numbered sets take precedence over higher numbered sets thereby avoiding scheduling
conflicts. For example, if sets 1, 2 ,3 and 4 in are applied in the remote node then set 1 will take
precedence over set 2, 3 and 4 as the HomeSafe, by default, applies the lowest numbered set first.
Set 2 will take precedence over set 3 and 4, and so on.

You can design up to 12 schedule sets but you can only apply up to four schedule sets for a
remote node.
