Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] can you set duration of alarms?

2012-08-22 Thread Lambchop

To set the duration of the alarm, go to Server Settings.

Go to the Player tab
Choose player from the drop down menu and choose Alarm from the other
drop down menu
On the Alarm Timeout select the number of minutes the alarm runs


To run multiple alarms make sure the time for the following alarm is set
for the time plus the number of minutes on the Alarm Timeout
e.g if you set the alarm for 7am with an alarm timeout of 15 minutes,
the next alarm should be set for 7.15 am to allow the first alarm to
finish.

 Will give it a try.

ok I set 3 alarms 2 minutes apart - radio station 1, radio station 2 and
music tone.
It changed from one to the other station with a beep and pause in
between. unfortunately the third alarm using a music tone went on ad
nauseum until I switched it off so this can't be used as an off
alarm.

I will experiment with some radio stations that don't play, and could
use these as off alarms.

or create a short mp3 file that has whatever sound and/or silence that
you want. Save it as a favorite and make it your third alarm.

Finally a use for those annoying silent tracks that are on some albums
between the main album and the bonus tracks!  Try A Quiet Moment
from Peter Gabriel's New Blood album.

Not sure about the answer to the first question, but to change stations
at a predetermined time you could set another alarm, with the different
station as the alarm.
