jjsmd Posted November 12, 2023 Posted November 12, 2023 I have a program to turn on/off lights at sunrise and sunset that do not seem to be working. The sunrise/sunset times are displaying properly in the configuration page but do not seem to set off the commands
paulbates Posted November 12, 2023 Posted November 12, 2023 I just got an eisy and added dusk/dawn programs and had programs not function 100% using the "Time" command. The way to check out what's happening is to go to the program tab, and then click the Summary sub-tab to the left. That provides a list of programs and run dates/times... including the Next run. See what next run says for these programs. I had problems there that vanished, but arguably I was making changes at the same time. One of the things I saw was that the Next run for some of my programs using the time command was that the scheduled day was the next day... this was in the am, 8 hours or more before dusk
dakall Posted November 12, 2023 Posted November 12, 2023 Use From... To... not Time Is. Patio Lights - [ID 0033][Parent 0001] If From Sunset + 5 minutes To 11:30:00PM (same day) Then Set 'Patio Lights' On Else Set 'Patio Lights' Off
Andy P Posted November 12, 2023 Posted November 12, 2023 This absolutely should work and certainly does for me. If Time is Sunrise Then ... So 1. Check - did you click on Save Changes at the bottom of the programs tab? 2. At the top of the admin console, does it show the right time for Sunrise and Sunset? 3. In the programs summary page tab does it show times for Next Scheduled Run and 'On' in the enabled column?
