iControl Manual

The dialog for each schedule type is similar. You must give the new schedule a unique name,
which should be something that clearly says what this schedule will do. You then select the date
and time at which to execute this scheduled event. The actions themselves are as follows:
Change an Outlet
is used to turn an outlet on or off.
Run a Sequence
will run a previously defined sequence. The names of the sequences in the
drop-down box are the names they were given when they were created. A sequence must be
created before a schedule can use it.
Send an Email
will send an email to a chosen recipient. The recipients showing in the drop-
down box must be created in Setup Email before a schedule can use them.
*Please do not use special characters (<, >, #, etc.) in the email subject or body, or end the
message body with a period (.).
To run a schedule to test it, click “Test”. To delete a schedule, click “Delete”.
Setup Page
Date and Time
This page allows the configuration of date and time settings.
Automatic
specifies that the iControl should automatically synchronize its time with an internet
time server. You may enter the address of a time server in the text box, or leave the default time
server in place.
Manual
specifies that the iControl should maintain its own clock, starting at the date and time
entered in the text boxes. The format for the date is YYYY/MM/DD. The format for the Hour is
24-hour time (3pm = 15, etc.).
*The use of Manual time is not recommended, especially for
long-term scheduled events. The clock may drift, resulting in scheduled events not executing as
expected. Loss of power will result in the clock being reset.
Time Zone
allows the selection of the time zone you are in.
Adjust Clock for Daylight Savings Time
specifies whether or not to automatically adjust the
clock during Daylight Savings Time.
Email
This page allows the setup of email information, including the mail server and email recipients.
*Add the iControl to your allowed sender list to avoid emails from the iControl being sent to a
junk folder, or blocked by a spam filter.
User Information
specifies the return address for email messages sent from the iControl.
