Scheduling these special selections simplify the operation of the bell system~~. These codes can be entered anytime a four digit number is blinking on the front panel display~~. Some are also available as a pull-down selection while editing schedules and functions using the Management Suite scheduler.

Scheduling these special selections simplify the operation of the bell system. Some are also available as a pull-down selection while [[Scheduler_weekly_MS|editing schedules]] and [[Settings_MS2201#Edit_Remote_Buttons|programming functions]] using the Management Suite scheduler.

== Scheduled macros ==

When programming macro codes in the weekly schedule, do not precede them with any other specific selection or pause. Multiple macros may be scheduled at the same time, including function macros containing pauses.

== Pauses and delays ==

Sometimes you will not want the bells to ring exactly on the quarter hour. To delay ringing until later in the quarter, insert a pause in the program ahead of the ringing.

Sometimes you will not want the bells to ring exactly on the quarter hour. To delay ringing until later in the quarter, insert a pause in the program ahead of the ringing. Older manuals instruct you to press the cursor-up button to access pauses. This is no longer recommended, you should use the following numeric codes instead.

~~While a four-digit selection number is blinking on the display,~~ press the ''cursor-up'' button ~~two times~~. ~~The display will indicate ''Pau _'' and~~ you ~~can follow it with a number between ''1'' and ''8'' to indicate~~ the ~~length of the pause. Multiple pauses will add together (Pau8 Pau2 will delay for ten minutes)~~.

~~Avoid using long pauses between selections that may overflow into~~ the following ~~time slot. Use~~ timed silent selections ~~instead. Selections '''~~0071~~''' through '''~~0080~~''' will provide silent delays from one to ten minutes~~.

=== Timed selection pause ===

Users of newer systems should use the following timed silent selections for pauses:

0071 - One Minute

0072 - Two Minutes

0073 - Three Minutes

0074 - Four Minutes

0075 - Five Minutes

0076 - Six Minutes

0077 - Seven Minutes

0078 - Eight Minutes

0079 - Nine Minutes

0080 - Ten Minutes

Silent selections may be combined for longer pauses. Silent selections can be used in Function programs (remote buttons or macros).

== Random Music ==

*'''Grp7''' plays patriotic music independent of season

*'''Grp8''' plays Marian hymns independent of season

*'''Grp9''' plays from the User Defined Playlist – requires optional ~~Millennium~~ Suite to customize

*'''Grp9''' plays from the User Defined Playlist – requires optional Management Suite to customize

=== ~~Multiple~~ random music selections ===

=== Timed random music selections ===

In the schedulers, you can continue to enter more musical selections as you did above. When programming a music function button, you can also indicate how many selections to play (up to 199). You can also enter the following timed music blocks in the schedule (these codes must be the ''last'' selection for the quarter hour).
