Enterprise Interface: How to schedule a campaign

Modified on Tue, Nov 12 at 10:41 AM

When you set a schedule for a campaign, you are setting a window of time during which the template(s) is allowed to play. Outside of this window, the template(s) will be skipped. 


The scheduled time will work relative to the time zone set on the player, so make sure that the time zone is set. You can set the time zone in the player settings with the remote control, or on Player Status by clicking the Actions button.


The scheduler is not designed to force specific templates to start displaying at exact times. When you set a schedule, you are defining the window of time during which the template is allowed to play. The player will continually rotate through all playlist items in order, and when it comes to a template which is scheduled, it will check the schedule to determine whether to display that template or skip it.
