The CRON String should be contained within a configuration table called Settings

So you can use GetConfigurationTable and SetConfigurationTable services to dynamically change it.

It probably requires a RestartThing after you change it.

    Use the Get service to investigate that, although usually there is a datashape matching the or kind of matching the configuration table name. Might be a system object.

    Hope this helps,

    /** GET SETTINGS **/
var settings = Things["Scheduler_Scheduler"].GetConfigurationTable({
	tableName: "Settings" /* STRING */
});

/** UPDATE SETTINGS **/
settings.schedule = "0 0/9 * * * ?"; //Example
Things["Scheduler_Scheduler"].SetConfigurationTable({
	configurationTable: settings /* INFOTABLE */,
	persistent: true /* BOOLEAN {"defaultValue":true} */,
	tableName: "Settings" /* STRING */
});
