Description 
See this Comm Center thread by Chuck Cynamon. For Fixed time plans, the End time is actually not used other that at StartTimedPlans() to test if the end time is already passed and not start it.  Improve logging in StartTimedPlans() for late start of the dispatcher

Update: 8.1.3 has good docs, removal of the debug popups and is OK at Geoff Stone's and Grady's.






Problem: the repeat coults on ImageSet or Observation are not updated at early termination, leading to wildly high numbers for completed Plans in the Schedule Browser's tables.

This is it. Running well at Grady's giving to Chuck Cynamon for testing.

  Fix forced-end fixed-time Plans for Observations with high repeat counts. Update Advanced features docs to describe forced-end.

REOPENED






See this thread. My initial change in AcquireScheduler takes care of the case where a single ImageSet has "lots" of images. However the case where the Observation itself has a large Set Count is not handled. The Observation is repeatedly sent to ACP only to be quickly terminated for running beyond the forced end time. 







This really needed to be handled in the Engine.

As reported by Dick Berg here, the change from Image Series to Time Series is not reflected in the Description of the plan.

  Make Schedule Browser's Plan editor responsive for Fixed Time.

Schedule Browser's Edit Plan form needs to reflect the mode changes for fixed time.
7/11/2023 12:45:59 PM   Bob Denny 
Also given to Grady Boyce, who quickly came back with changes to the Single Series and Astro Imaging forms in the timing section. The Must Run Before disappears!!! This will require changes to the main Web UI.

Upgraded AcquireScheduler sent to customer.

  Allow latest time on fixed-time plans to force (successful) termination of the Observation (and Plan) at the Latest time. If the earliest and latest are the same thjis will be skipped and the plan will run till the request is completed.

Looking good! Need to sent to customer for testing, along with scheduler.exe with recent fixed time enhancements.

Looks hopeful, with just changes to AcquireScheduler!!
