In Schedule Mode, a Channel records files based on Calendar Events from the macOS Calendar application of the machine running Just Control. You may use any Calendar that can be added to the macOS Calendar app, such as iCloud or Gmail Accounts or from other Mail/Calendar servers. Events scheduled in the corresponding/selected Calendar will automatically switch the Channel to Schedule Mode and start a Recording. When stopping a Schedule Recording manually, the corresponding Event will be deleted automatically.
