    It's been so long since I set up my IREX that I have forgotten how to set
    up the time interval between polls. I have searched the manual, but cannot find it.

    Can someone steer me in the right direction?

    In the Event Manager in Rex Config, use the following type of setup


    A ALL 00:00 00:45 -f 1:249/303

    That would mean Event A, Every day of the week, every 45 minutes and -f (fetch) node number

    and -f (fetch) node number

    so...

    A ALL 00:15 01:00 -f 1:249/303

    means starting at 15 minutes after the hour, and every hour after that, poll that system?

    Yeup...

    Event Days Starting Repeat -f (fetch) from 1:249/303.
    A All 00:15 01:00 Node

    Rex internally recognizes -fsq as Fetch, Send and Que echo/netmail for
    that node.

    In the Days window, one can specify All (everyday) or select certain days
    of the week to execute event A.

    It will also call a batch file to do other events, such as the one I use
    to post the rules to Automotive and Ham, every Friday. POSTRULZ.BAT, which calls the FE, feutil.exe post executeable.

    Means (to me) it starts at midnite plus 15 minutes <G> IOW 24:15 (or more properly 00:15) and yes it would go hourly after that, If I rember correctly.
