These are fields that hold selections for anything other than time strike programming and level setting. If you are entering a specific song or bell ringing operation, the selection number is entered directly into the selection field. You can also copy and paste the selection number using Ctrl-C and Ctrl-V. [[Macro_code_reference|Macro codes]] that perform various additional operations can be inserted with four digits in this line as well. | ||
If you don’t want to begin ringing on the quarter-hour, a pause macro can be programmed to delay the beginning of the program. Pause macro codes are on the pull-down menu in each selection field. For example if you want to ring a swinging bell at 8:55, program an eight-minute and then a two-minute pause before the ringing code in the 8:45 time slot. | If you don’t want to begin ringing on the quarter-hour, a pause macro can be programmed to delay the beginning of the program.

Saving your schedule to the PC's drive also gives the schedule a name so you can see which schedules have been loaded in the carillon. The name of the most recently loaded schedule is shown in the bottom right corner of Management Suite's menu window. | ||
When you have finished editing, it might be a good idea to double check codes and settings and look over the Edit Time Strikes/Auto Levels view. | |||

Up to ten weekly schedules can be stored in FLASH memory to be transferred to active schedule memory when the associated macro code is executed. The macro code can be programmed anywhere a selection number is normally entered. It is generally not a good idea to place these schedule activation codes in a weekly schedule unless it is a temporary schedule and you want to replace it with a default later in the week. | Up to ten weekly schedules can be stored in FLASH memory to be transferred to active schedule memory when the associated macro code is executed.

Always save the schedule to your hard drive before loading in the carillon. The file name will be displayed beside the schedule macro button after loading (shown as No Schedule when blank). When a macro code is used to activate a schedule, the file name will be displayed at the bottom right of the menu screen to let you know what schedule is currently active. | |||
Typically you will have a schedule for various times of the year. The one-time or annual event schedules are the logical place to program the schedule transfer macros at the appropriate time. The macro codes are 7930 – 7939. | Typically you will have a schedule for various times of the year.

Any edits made to the active schedule either from the system front panel editing screen or with the Scheduler application will not affect the copy in FLASH memory. The next time a macro overwrites active memory, changes will be lost if they are not saved with the Scheduler application. No provision is made to transfer a schedule to FLASH except with the Scheduler application. | Any edits made to the active schedule either from the system front panel editing screen or with the Scheduler application will not affect the copy in FLASH memory.
