Weekly schedule

This is the format the product uses to display weekly schedule information. You can also use this format to programmatically schedule actions continuously.

on day1[day2][day3-day4] @start-time[[/interval]-stop-time][,start-time[[/interval]-stop-time]] [+on day5[day6-day7] @start-time[[/interval]-stop-time]][,start-time[[/interval]-stop-time]]

Alternatively, you can use the following syntax to schedule actions to run continuously:

continuously

Parameters

day
Specifies a day or days of the week on which you want the action to be executed.
When specifying a weekly schedule, days are expressed as two-letter abbreviations that represent the day of the week. For example, Su for Sunday, Mo for Monday, Tu for Tuesday, and so on. You can specify a range of days of the week by delimiting the start and end days in the range using a hyphen (-).
Day ranges must be distinct and cannot overlap.
start-time
interval
stop-time
Indicates the time (or time range) of day an action should be executed.
start-time is the beginning of the range.
interval is how often the action is executed.
stop-time is the end of the range.
All three are expressed in HH:mm[:ss] format, where seconds are optional.
You cannot specify duplicate or overlapping times. For example, on We @00:00-01:00,00:30 is not allowed.
continuously
Runs the action continuously. This is a shortcut for and equivalent to specifying Su-Sa @00:00-24:00.
Note: Continuous scheduling is actually semi-continuous. The minimum period of processing continuous operations is governed by the Options > Other > Autosend Check Every setting. The default value is 5 seconds. See Other system options.
Note: Scheduling an action to run continuously could impact your system performance. It is recommended that you schedule actions to run at a longer frequency than the default, for example, 30 seconds.
on file polling continuously
Run the action only when there are files available to send or check. This is a shortcut for and equivalent to specifying on file polling Su-Sa @00:00-24:00.
Note: Continuous scheduling is actually semi-continuous. The minimum period of processing continuous operations is governed by the Options > Other > Autosend Check Every setting. The default value is 5 seconds.
