In Simple Mode you select a repetition interval (see table 1) a start date and an end date. The Observation plan will then check all intervals where the end date of the interval is between the defined start and end date (inclusive).
The time intervals defined with the repetition interval is inclusive on the lower border and exclusive on the upper. I.e. a time interval 2015-01-01:00:00 to 2015-02-01:00:00 would include observations with a sampling time stamp 2015-01-01:00:00 or 2015-01-31:23:59 but would not include observations with a sampling time stamp 2015-02-01:00:00.
Example:
Selected repetition interval: Once a month
Selected start date: 2015-06-23 00:00
Selected end date: 2015-09-01 00:00
