Example of creating a Future Schedule

If a user wanted to measure a job every Wednesday night at 8:00 pm, and every Friday night at 11:00 pm, for 10 weeks, starting on Wednesday Dec. 8, 2004, it would be set up like this:
  1. Enter the first Wednesday date in the Date (yy mm dd) field: 04 12 08.
  2. Enter 10 in the Repeat __ times field.
  3. Enter 20:00 in the Time (hh mm) field.
  4. Enter 7 in the After __ days field. (To indicate that is repeats each 7 days).

    The screen would look like this:
