Note
● Up to 16 tasks can be executed by VBCollector simultaneously. Please be sure
not to load a schedule with 17 or more tasks to be executed. VBCollector is also
not able to execute multiple tasks simultaneously to the same server. Please take
care to ensure that multiple tasks are not executed to the same server by taking
such measures as leaving a sufficient time space between the “Start Time” of each
task.
● If you execute a maximum of 16 tasks simultaneously, please confirm performance
of the PC on which VBCollector is installed (→ P.1-5). When Log S015 “The task
was running longer than the execution interval.” or D040 “File saving time took 60
sec. or more.” is returned, review the settings for the schedules such as reducing
the number of tasks to be performed at the same time.

“Repeat task”
Select if task is to be executed in repetition in time units. Downloads occur in repetition only
for the specified number of times at specified intervals starting from the start time specified
in the schedule. If not selected, download occurs once at the start time specified in the
schedule. Once the End Time is reached, the task is not performed. Images can be
downloaded at intervals of some minutes or by specifying a number. Enter a value between
5 and 1439 as the number of minutes. Times up to the Start Time plus 23:59 can be
specified as the End Time.
“Retry when an error occurs”
Select this item if a task is to be executed again in the event a download does not end
normally after a task is executed. The task will be executed again a specified number of
times at specified time intervals. During this time, if the download is completed normally,
further tasks will not be repeated. Specify the number of times and the time interval at
which a task is to be re-executed. For the number of times, enter a value between 1 and 10;
for the interval, enter a value between 1 and 10.
“Disconnect after finishing download (for access via dial-up connections)
If the connection with the server is a dialup connection and when this item is selected, it will
automatically be disconnected when the task ends.
