RULES CREATOR: Commands syntax
Need Answer
Hello guys,
does anyone know if there is a sort of guide to the command syntax for Rules Creator?
For example, which is the right value to input to define a specific day of the week, in the function shown in the attachment?

My rule to set the weekday condition is attached below (it tests whether the day is Sunday (1) or Saturday (7). And I've also attached a condition to test for the opposite - if the day is between Monday and Friday.

Attila,
I run this and many other rules from my "master scheduler" rule every 10, 15 or 30 minutes, just by flipping the switch, in this case "Sub_SetVars_Weekday". I could just as easily use another rule with a scheduler piece, but I don't find the Zipabox schedulers very reliable. It's also useful to be able to trigger the same rule from different places.
