Repository for operational schedule files for UAF SuperDARN sites
Schedule files come in two formats now. I legacy format and a priority aware format.
Legacy format uses entries of the form: year month day hour mn command
The date time information in the first 5 columns represent the start time of the command In the legacy format commands will run until a new command is scheduled to start. When using the legacy format for a schedule file, all entries in that file are given lowest priority.
The new priority aware format introduces the concepts priority and duration. A file is considered priority aware if the global priority keyword is set in the file.
Priority aware schedule entries look like this: year month day hour min duration_in_mins priority command
duration_in_minutes is the number of minutes over which this command is scheduled to run duration_in_minutes of 0 turns duration tracking off for that entry. With duration tracking off, this entry will continue to run forever unless a new program of equal or higher priority is scheduled to start.
priority of 0 is lowest priority.
Use Astrick character if you want to use the default priority and duration set globally.
