Supported by: 
If this setting is On, scheduled calendar synchronization is enabled. Recommended value: On.
- Days back
In this field you can specify how many days back the DME client should synchronize calendar entries. By default, the permitted range is from 0 to 999 days, but you can change this. Note that with higher numbers, the load on the DME server will increase. Recommended value: 7.
- Days forward
In this field you can specify how many days ahead the DME client should synchronize calendar entries (the calendar synchronization window). By default, the permitted range is from 0 to 999 days, but you can change this. Note that with higher numbers, the load on the DME server will increase.
Note that the maximum number of days that Microsoft Exchange allows a user to synchronize is 729 days. This synchronization window is calculated from the date furthest back in time. This means that if the user sets a very high value for Days back, for instance 700 days, DME is only able to synchronize calendar entries 29 days ahead in time, regardless of the setting in the field Days forward. Note that if you specify a span greater than 729 days, no calendar events will be synchronized at all, and no error is logged about this.
Supported by:
If this setting is On, client-initiated (pull) synchronization of calendar items is enabled. This corresponds to the Scheduled sync. settings, but is independent of the synchronization schedule set up on the DME server. Recommended value: Off.
If On, a Pull synchronization of your calendar only is defined, based on the following settings:
- Pull interval (min.)
In this field you can specify how often the pull should be executed. By default, the permitted range is from 10 to 120 minutes, but you can change this. Note that the load on the DME server and the drain on the device batteries will increase, the lower a number you specify.
- Start time (hours:minutes)
In this field you can specify the time of day at which calendar pull should start. You can for instance choose to start checking for calendar updates at 8 in the morning. Use together with the fields End time and Run on weekends.
- End time (hours:minutes)
In this field you can specify the time of day at which calendar pull should stop. You can for instance choose to not check for new calendar updates after your regular work hours. Use together with the fields Start time and Run on weekends.
- Run on weekends
If this setting is On, the client will pull for calendar updates in the weekend also, except during the interval specified by the Start time and End time settings.
Supported by:
In this field you can choose the level of interaction between the device native calendar and the DME calendar. Open means full integration. Mixed*) means that the meeting times are shown in the native calendar, but you must open DME to see the title, description and other information. Secure means that there is no integration between the native and the DME calendar.
Notes for Apple iOS clients:
- On the client, the choice between Open and Secure mode is made by the Calendar setting Copy to local. If this setting is On on the client (Open mode), DME creates a local calendar called DME, and shows calendar entries from DME in that local calendar. The entries from DME are exported (one-way sync.) to the device calendar.
In this mode, appointments in the local DME calendar must be created/updated/deleted from within the secure DME calendar in order for the changes to be reflected in the collaboration system.
- Note that when set on the server, the Calendar mode setting is interpreted differently on the iOS platform. The administrator can allow Open mode, not enforce it:
On server, Calendar mode is set to:
Secure, not lockedThis is interpreted by the client as:
On new installations, Secure is set on the client, but the user may change this to Open.
If the client is already set to Open, it will NOT be switched to Secure.Set to: Secure, locked
Interpreted as: The client is set to Secure, regardless of previous setting.
Set to: Open (locked or not locked)
Interpreted as: On new installations, Open is set on the client, but the user may change this to Secure.
If the client is already set to Secure, it will NOT be switched to Open.
For more information, see the Client User Guide for your platform.
*) Please note that Mixed mode is only available for clients that are still running a 3.5-level client. Mixed mode was removed in 3.6. If selected, a 3.6 client will interpret this as Secure mode.
