General Description
=============
The Online Sender Start Timer is an optional accessory for the Online Sender (sold separately). It is used to preset dates/times for your Online Sender to automatically start or stop sending items to your subscriber list. This is particularly useful for sending time sensitive items such as notices for sales, events or performances. It eliminates the need for you to log in and manually initiate sending from the Online Sender at a time that may not be convenient.

One Start Timer can set multiple start/stop dates/times for one Online Sender or multiple Online Senders. This enables you to set up a separate Online Sender for each different event and control all the start and stop dates/times from one Start Timer. You can also specify how often an Online Sender start/stop should be repeated. This is useful for sending recurring event notices such as for regular DJing or performing at a particular venue. For example, setting repeat days to 7 would start or stop the Online Sender once a week at the same time.

Key Features
=========
- Can set different start/stop dates/times and repeat days (intervals) for different Online Senders.
- Optionally change the Start Timer's colors and/or hover text to reflect current status (e.g. idle, enabled, starting, stopping, etc.).
- Extensive error pre-checking of Config notecard parameters to avoid failed sends.
- Automatically re-reads the Config notecard after it is edited or inventory is changed.
- Enables you to specify in which of 4 modes to start/stop the Online Sender. These modes correspond to menu commands on the Online Sender.
- You can copy the script and config notecard to an object of your own design if you prefer.
- Can be operated by authorized administrators.
- Option to echo error messages to owner when Start Timer is being used by an administrator
