- pt=b
- User's time (of the visitor to the site): in this case, it's mandatory to pass the user's time values in the request code to the variables

. If the response returns pt=b and no time values are passed, Moscow time is used. - pd
- Day of the month: a number from 1 through 31.
- pw
- Day of the week: a number from 0 through 6, where 0 is Sunday, 1 is Monday, 2 is Tuesday, and so on.
