PreviousCS Device Card OverviewNextAll Schedules

Last updated 3 months ago

Purpose:

  1. Displays a list of all predefined schedules for the selected device.

  2. Helps users manage or review operational schedules for devices like air conditioners, lights, or machines.

Navigation:

  1. Clicking on "All Schedules" opens a modal or page listing all the active/inactive schedules associated with this specific CS device.

Expanded Functionalities

  1. Schedule Management: o Through the "All Schedules" option, users can:  View existing schedules for the device.  Edit or delete schedules as required.  Create new schedules to automate device actions (e.g., turning the device on/off based on conditions like time or temperature).

  2. Real-Time Monitoring: o This card still provides real-time status updates, such as the operational state of the device (e.g., "ON") and its location within the plant.

  3. Improved Workflow: o The ability to access schedules directly from the card streamlines workflow for automation, ensuring users don’t need to navigate multiple menus.

  4. Enhanced Control: o The dropdown menu offers quicker access to advanced features like scheduling, diagnostics, or device configuration.

Use Cases for "All Schedules"

  1. Automated Operations: o For devices like ACs, users can schedule operations to maintain room temperature efficiently or save energy by automatically turning the device off during non-peak hours.

  2. Maintenance Planning: o Operators can review and adjust schedules to align with planned maintenance or energy management policies.

  3. Error Resolution: o Viewing schedules helps identify potential conflicts or overlapping automation that might lead to unexpected device behavior.

Detailed Explanation of the "All Schedule" Menu Interface This screenshot represents the "All Schedules" menu for a specific device. It displays a list of time slots during which the device is scheduled to operate on specific days. Below is a detailed breakdown of the features and functionalities of this interface:

Key Elements

  1. Day Column: o Displays the days of the week (e.g., Monday, Tuesday, etc.). o Each row corresponds to a day with an associated time slot when the device operates.

  2. Start Time: o Indicates the time when the device is set to turn ON. o Example: For Monday, the start time is 9:00 AM.

  3. Stop Time: o Indicates the time when the device is set to turn OFF. o Example: For Monday, the stop time is 5:00 PM.

  4. Action Column: o Includes a trash bin icon for each row, allowing users to delete the schedule for that specific day. o Example: Clicking the trash bin next to Monday would remove the schedule for that day.

Additional Features

  1. "Close" Button: o Closes the schedule interface without making any changes. o Allows users to exit the view after reviewing the schedules.

  2. "Create New Slot" Button: o Opens a form or interface to add a new schedule for the device. o This is useful for defining additional operational time slots, either for new days or for custom timings.

Functional Workflow

  1. View All Schedules: o Users can see a complete list of existing schedules for the device. o This is particularly helpful in managing weekly automation.

  2. Edit or Delete Schedules: o If a schedule is no longer needed, users can delete it using the trash bin icon. o To modify a schedule, users would typically need to delete the existing slot and create a new one with the desired timings.

  3. Add New Schedules: o Using the "Create New Slot" button, users can add additional time slots for operation. o Example: Adding an additional time slot for Monday from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM.

This screenshot represents the "Create New Slot" interface, which allows users to add a new time slot for scheduling the operation of a device. Below is a breakdown of the fields and functionality available in this interface.

Key Elements

  1. Day Dropdown: o Purpose: Select the specific day for which the schedule should be created. o Options: Days of the week (Monday to Sunday) or possibly an "Everyday" option for daily scheduling.

  2. Frequency Dropdown: o Purpose: Select how frequently the slot should repeat. o Options :  Once: The schedule runs only on the selected day.  Daily: The schedule repeats every day.  Custom Frequency (if available): Allows for repeated schedules on specific days (e.g., weekdays only).

  3. Start Time Selector: o Purpose: Define the time when the device should turn ON. o Input Type: Time picker or manual input for hours and minutes (e.g., 09:00 AM).

  4. Stop Time Selector: o Purpose: Define the time when the device should turn OFF. o Input Type: Time picker or manual input for hours and minutes (e.g., 05:00 PM).

Action Buttons

  1. Close Button: o Function: Closes the interface without saving changes. o Useful if users decide not to proceed with creating a new slot.

  2. Save Slot Button: o Function: Saves the newly defined schedule for the selected day and time. o On saving, the new slot will be added to the All Schedules list for the device.

Functional Workflow

  1. Select the Day: o Users first select the specific day for which the schedule should be created.

  2. Choose Frequency (if applicable): o Set how often the schedule should repeat.

  3. Define Start and Stop Times: o Use the time pickers to specify the operational period of the device.

  4. Save or Cancel: o If satisfied, click Save Slot to confirm the new schedule. o Otherwise, click Close to discard the changes.

Use Cases

  1. Single-Day Scheduling: o Example: Turning on a device on Monday from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM.

  2. Repeating Schedules: o Example: Automatically operating a device daily during specific hours, such as 6:00 PM to 10:00 PM.

  3. Custom Frequency: o Example: Schedule the device to turn on only on weekends from 8:00 AM to 2:00 PM.

Summary This interface simplifies the process of adding new schedules by providing an intuitive layout for selecting the day, frequency, and time periods. It is designed for efficient management of device automation, enabling users to quickly set operational slots based on their needs.

Use Cases

  1. Energy Optimization: o Schedule devices (e.g., air conditioners) to operate during working hours only, reducing energy consumption during off-hours.

  2. Custom Automation: o For devices that require different schedules on different days (e.g., weekend vs. weekday operation).

  3. Efficient Management: o Quickly review, modify, or extend schedules without needing to navigate multiple menus.

Summary The "All Schedules" menu is a user-friendly interface for managing the operational schedule of a device. It ensures flexibility in defining time slots while providing control over device usage for better efficiency and convenience.
