New user, cant get first schedule working

1

Ive installed the CMS on a Linux box in docker and set up 3 layouts. Default, Library Close and Library Open. The Default layout, which is the Default layout on the Display, is blanks. Open has an open sign and closed has a closed sign. All layouts are 15 seconds long.

I have a daypart, 0000-0059 for testing. I have set a schedule with Library Open for with this daypart, its about 2200 but the display is not showing the Default layout, its displaying the Open Layout.

Here is the daypart:

And here is the Schedule:

What am I doing wrong?

PS the display has time at the bottom and it is showing correct time.

Maybe you could try something like:

  1. Create 3 Layouts as: “Default Layout (Offline|Error)”, Open and Closed
  2. Change Default layout for display1 with new “Default Layout (Offline|Error)”
  3. Schedule Event 1 with layout “Open” to display1 from 08:00 > 20:00
  4. Schedule Event 2 with layout “Closed” to display1 from 20:00 > 08:00

In this way Default Layout (Offline|Error) should only display if there are problems/errors.

Thanks, think I got it working almost. I basically have all schedules set to always and use priorities to chose which displays to use. I also setup XMR so things update quicker.
