It will be recalled again 5 minutes before closing. Figure 28 The message should be played twice a day: 15 minutes before closing (at 7:45 p.m.) and 5 minutes before closing (at 7:55 p.m.).
  • Page 43 Finally, the message located on the SD card ("mmc://...") will be announced with priority. Figure 30 1.1.1.1 CALENDAR FOR CHRISTMAS CAMPAIGN Figure 31 As this is for a specific calendar interval (15/12/21 to 15/01/22), an end date is set by choosing CUSTOM END DATE and setting the End date and End time parameters correctly.
  • Page 44 Regarding repetitions, the message has to be played every 30 minutes, and it is known that the establishment closes at 8:00 p.m. As there will be no audio at 8:00 p.m., we will set the number of repetitions in such a way that the last time the event is triggered is 30 min before closing.

It has also been written in such a way that we can use the "blink" function multiple times within the same script.
  • Page 56 7.2.7.4 EXAMPLE SCRIPT04: Play an Internet radio station when the Internet connection is restored The following script loads a preset when an available Internet connection (WAN) is detected. It can be good to use this in combination with the silence detection event: The device is playing an Internet radio station, however, due to a network problem, it no longer has access to the radio.
