Tutorial 1: Set up automatic synchronization

Task:
Set up automatic synchronization at every hour on all days except Saturday and Sunday.

Solution:

You must create a new Job (see Tutorial 5: Creating a job quickly). Click the button New Job on the main toolbar or press Ctrl+N shortcut. This opens the Job wizard window.

If you have created Job, then select it in the main window. For example you select the job - 'Mirror to Server'.

Click the button Edit Job on the main toolbar. This opens the Job wizard with the job 'Mirror to Server'.

In the Job wizard window go to the page Scheduling.

On the page Scheduling in the group Enable scheduler select always. This makes the enable scheduler controls.

To exclude Saturday and Sunday from the scheduler list:

Turn on check Run on the week days only, this makes the enable week days list.
Turn off these checks Saturday and Sunday in the Run on the week days only list.

To setup automatic synchronization at every hour:

A single click on every control in the Repeat controls group.
Set value 0 in the days control.
Set value 1 in the hours control.
Set value 0 in the minutes control.

You can see the real dates of executions, calculated on started settings in the List of nearest executions.

Turn on the option Run missed schedules at the program startup if you need to periodically switch off your computer and some scheduled jobs can be missed. If this option is checked, the program will detect all missed (scheduled but not executed on time) items and execute them at startup program.

Click the button Save Job to save changes of the job.

The job state switches to

waiting. In the column Next run you can see the date when the job 'Mirror to Server' will start.

Notes:

Scheduler can execute jobs automatically when HAS is running only. Turn on Launch HAS at Windows start up tick box on the options general page to run HAS automatically at Windows startup. For more information see the work in "silent" mode.

To view information about job settings click the button Job info on the main toolbar.

To edit job settings click the button Edit job on the main toolbar. Editing job turns off the scheduler settings.
