Is it related to student constraint?

[Min hours daily for a teacher]

Ok... Let me try to explain in better way.

We have 7 hours defined per day and working for 5 days.
We have 3 types of subjects... we consider this as activity. The type of subjects are Theory, Lab & Tutorial. We will have 5 theory subjects, 1 tutorial & 2 labs for a semester. The same theory subject cannot be repeated for the same day. For eg, 'Theory of Machines' (Theory)subject can be repeated for the same day. The 'Fluid Mechanics' (Lab) subject should come continuously for 3 hours either in the forenoon or afternoon on the same day.

But, 'Min hours daily for a teacher' is assigned to 2 hours in the FET timetable generation configuration. If I try to change the same constraint to 1 hour the system does not allow me to do so. Hence the theory subject ('Theory of Machines') is repeating twice for the same day i.e on Tuesday. We can not allocate 2 hours for the same class for same day.

Please advise us if there is any other option to generate the time table without repeating theory subjects in a day.

I cannot set min days for a teacher = n days per week. Working day is 5 days but each theory will be for 4 hours/week.

Hi,
Thanks for your reply.

Here is the scenario on my Question.
I have 2 kind of activitites Theory subjects, Lab subjects
I have 2 Groups Group A ( department section A) and Group B (Department section B) with 75 students each.
According to my institution, no staffs should go to the theory hours contiuously either in his own group / with in the group (  ( exception for the lab hours)
 a) Own group - ex : 3 rd and 4th hours continuously
 b) Among groups - ex : 3rd hour in group A and 4th hours in Group B

FET version : 5.10.3

on using this Time table generation, teachers are assigned continuously for two different groups. How to change this??

how to set min hours daily as 1 (as i need this). I want to set min hours daily for all teachers as 1
