Schedule Settings
The Schedule Settings page within Configuration allows a user with administrator
privileges to choose how to obtain presentation schedules and, if appropriate, import
calendars or connect to an Opencast server scheduling system. Scheduling must be set up
using this page. It cannot be set up via the front panel.
To open this page, click the Configuration tab at the top of the SMP351 embedded
Web pages and then click the Schedule Settings tab on the second tier of tabs.

(ad hoc events only) is selected, there is nothing to configure for scheduling. The four
selections are mutually exclusive. To set up any of the other options for importing schedules,
see the instructions below.
