Specifying Schedule Settings

You can select occupancy, lighting, and power schedules for a building type and individual spaces within the model. By default, lighting schedules are used to specify power schedules. You can create separate power schedules, as needed, when power scheduling does not coincide with lighting schedules. The Schedule Settings dialog is accessed from the Building/Space Type Settings dialog. Revit provides default schedules for building and space types. You can modify a default schedule, or create new schedules based on existing default schedules.
