I want to use Sypex dumper; how to add a Cron for it?

Hi there,

I have successfully installed Sypex dumper 2 but I guess it's doing nothing. I saved a job and I know I have to add a cron with this:

Code:
/usr/bin/php /home/site/public_html/sxd/index.php -j=job_name

I guess I have to do some changes so this line goes like:

Code:
/usr/bin/php /public_html/forums/sxd/index.php -j=dailybackupdb

because that is the URL and the name of the saved job. But the question is:

How do I add a cron entry? I never used cron and have no idea of how to use it. I guess I have to go to Tools > Cron entries > Create new cron entry but I see no field to paste that line and have no idea of what a callback class and method are...
also don't know what to put as entry ID...

Can anyone explain me, if possible like if I were a 10-yr old kid, what to do step-by-step, please? (I'm not a pro)

Thank you in advance.
