Scheduling Operations
You can have an operation start, stop, or restart on its own — once at a set time, or on a repeating schedule. This is handy for running a haul cycle during working hours, parking the fleet at the end of a shift, or kicking a finished operation back into motion.
Open the scheduler from the Operations panel: expand an operation and click its Schedule… button.
Choosing what to schedule
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Command | The action to run: Start Operation, Stop Operation, or Restart Operation. |
| When to Deploy | Deploy Now runs the command right away; Schedule for Later sets a time. |
| Make this a recurring command | Turns a single run into a repeating schedule. |
| Schedule Type | Weekly Schedule — choose the weekdays to repeat on — or Interval — run every N minutes/hours/days. |
| Timezone | The timezone your scheduled times are read in. |
| Schedule Ends | An optional end date for a recurring schedule. (An interval schedule requires one.) |
| Retry (optional) | If the command doesn't take, retry it up to a set number of times at a set interval. |
Restart vs. Start: Restart Operation is the only command that can revive an operation that has already Completed. Use Start Operation to resume one that's paused or stopped, and Restart Operation to run a finished one again.
Where scheduled commands show up
Once set, a scheduled start/stop/restart appears on the Schedule and Calendar and on the Timeline, alongside your scheduled missions, so you can see the whole plan at a glance. Open either to review, edit, or delete a scheduled command.
