Schedule Triggered Programs Staying Always True

[PLCGuy]

I just migrated from an ISY to an eisy and have a very simple program that is triggered by a scheduled IF and is staying always True. You can see in the screenshot below that the time of day is 7:44:23 PM and the program is still true and has been since 2:00:00 AM. 

 

I've tried disabling the program, rebooting the eisy, etc and I always that the program remains true once it is triggered at 2:00 :00 am the next morning. I had expected the program to be False at say 2:00:01 am. Am I missing something or is this a bug?

When you want to post a program, the best way is to right click the program name and select copy to clipboard. Then paste the program here.

To check your program, right click on it and select status. I think you will see that the program has finished running the "then" portion of the program at the designated time.

@PLCGuy this is normal. Since it ran true at the time you had it's showing that it last ran true. If the entire icon was green it would be a "running" program (like @DennisC suggests). You can look at the Summary tab to see the activity. I have a couple of programs that run a single time event and they are showing True (as your icon shows) and on the Summary tab, but the "Activity" is "Idle". 

It's not as though that program is still firing or applying your "Then" statement. It only runs at that specific time. If you want it to turn false you could put a time range in (from 2:00am - 2:01am) it would turn false after the time range.

"Partly green - not currently running, but last ran THEN code"

Thanks Geddy - I probably knew that a decade ago when iIfirst programmed my isy-994. I forgot that the partly green icon indicated the program was not currently running, but last ran THEN code. My bad...
