Time of Next Appearance
For every message, you can specify the precise time of the message's first displaying. The time is
entered using the fields "Day" and "hour:minute:second". The day of the week can be entered either
using the day's consecutive number (1 stands for Monday) or by entering the first three letters
1 of the
day's name. If you enter "xxx" as the day, the day of the week will not affect the displaying.
Example:
If you enter "xxx" and "15:23:30", the message will be displayed for the first time at the time entered
right, regardless of the day of the week; on the other hand, if you enter "Mon" "15:23:20", the
message will be displayed on Monday for the first time.
Period
Every message can be either displayed only once or repeated periodically
– in the latter case you
must specify the corresponding period of repetition (the time between individual repetitions). The
period can be specified with a step of 1 minute in the range from 1 minute to 1 week. If you want the
message to be displayed only once, set the period to 0.
Immediate Message
Select this option if you want the message to be displayed immediately. When displayed for the first
time, such message will override any other message being displayed, regardless of the priority; the
priority will, however, be taken into consideration at any subsequent displayings.
