- Scheduler
The scheduler is used to tweak eMule's settings
regarding a set time and week day for the change. It could
be used for raising up- and download during night time whereas
the bandwidth remains free for other applications during working
time.
The scheduler allows to create action profiles
with one or more actions to perform at a set time or weekday.
The first list box shows the created Profiles with Title,
Days to perform the actions and its Start Time.
A chosen profile shows the defined actions and time settings
in the Details area.
