Options: scheduler (Scheduled/Windows Startup - Advanced)

The schedulerÆs goal is to establish the periodicity with which a certain scheduled scan will be executed. You will need to indicate both the periodicity or frequency and the range of dates during which the scheduled scan in question will be enabled.

Frequency

In this section you can indicate when a scheduled scan will be executed. Scheduled scans can be executed one time only or every so many hours, days or weeks, and even on certain specific days of each month. Depending on the type of frequency chosen, the program will ask you for different types of data.

Schedule scan: allows you to choose whether you wish to scan one time only, every so many hours, days or weeks, on certain specific days of the month, or on a specific day in the year.

Start time: indicates the time of day when the scan will begin.

Time limit: indicates the time limit the scan has to finish. If the scan is not finished at this time, the operation will be cancelled.

Scheduling configuration: allows you to finish configuring the option selected in Program scan.

Validity

You can indicate that a certain scheduled scan is valid only between two dates. Once these dates have passed, the scan will never be executed again because it will have exceeded its validity period.

Start date: indicates the beginning date of the validity period of a scheduled scan.

End date: indicates the date which ends the validity period of a scheduled scan. It is optional. If you prefer not to indicate a final date, the scheduled scan will never expire.

Enabled

You can use this option to enable or disable the scheduled scan in question.
