Entering Scheduler Events

To schedule an event:

1. Double-click in the appropriate cell in the calendar or right-click and choose New Event.

2. Select the instrument and user from the drop-down list (Figure 18).

3. Adjust the start and end times. Once an event appears in the calendar view, it can be

moved to another time period by clicking and dragging the entry to a new position in the
calendar.

4. Assign a color to this event (optional).

5. To include an email or a pop-up reminder that will appear at a specified time prior to the

start of an event, check the Reminder checkbox and choose an advance notification
time period for the drop-down list.

WARNING! Scheduler must be running for reminders to be activated. Minimizing
the Scheduler window will enable pop-up and email reminders to occur at the
scheduled time. Selecting Close will quit the Scheduler.
