ScheduleEntry Action

The ScheduleEntry action sends event schedules to the Avigilon Alta schedule assigned to an entry.  The schedules are calculated the same way as the TemporaryUnlock action, but the list of schedules for the next 24 hours is sent to the entry schedule instead of queuing up the individual entry commands in the command queue. 

At each event query (manual or automatic), 24 hours of event schedules are calculated, pre-start and post-stop times are added, overlapping schedules are combined, and the final list is pushed down to the entry schedule.  Events2HVAC will retain the last scheduled command state so current state is maintained correctly for the present time.

If Enable Schedule Push Optimization setting is NOT set, all ScheduleEntry actions will be pushed at each poll interval.

If Enable Schedule Push Optimization setting is set, all ScheduleEntry actions will be evaluated at each poll interval to determine if a schedule push is needed for each action.  This option is more efficient since it only pushes schedules when there is a change in schedule between the last push and the current schedules.  See the Schedules Tab for more details on these settings.
