Michael, you can also specify the pools in the Schedule resource:

Schedule {
  Name = Weekly
  Run = Full         pool=Full  1st     fri at 21:30
  Run = Differential pool=Diff FullPool=Full 2nd-5th fri at 21:30
  Run = Incremental  pool=Inc FullPool=Full DifferentialPool=Diff mon-thu
at 21:30
}

That last "Run" line will wrap in this email, but should be on one line.

I've always configured the additional pool specifications there, but both
places work.
