Locate the Host to be modified and edit the Host either by double-clicking on the Host's row or by clicking on 'Edit' within the contextual menu for the host. Within the 'Advanced' section is the 'Check Period' option:

In the above example, we have changed the check period for the Host from the default 24x7 to the newly created 'new_time_period'.
