run every 15 minutes

Post by Filiep » Wed Mar 02, 2016 9:33 am

Hello,

I have recorded a script and I would like to run it every 15 minutes. I have selected every day and set it to repeat every 15min. But it doesn't work.

Do I have to set a starting time? Do I have to run it in the script or how do I start it in de sheduler? I have tried both. Run in the script but can I close the script and will it keep running? I have pushed the run now button in the sheduler but then it runs once.

I find it realy hard to see in the sheduler if a macro is active and running.

Thx

Filiep

Hi,

Yes you need a starting time which will need to be in the future. When that time comes it will then run and then the schedule will advance 15 minutes and so on.

A other way that you can do it is with a label and wait time.

label>namexyz
(script)
wait>900
goto>namexyz

You'll just run the script for a first time.

Wait>900 would wait 15 minutes.
