Hi - Dug through the forum posts and did not find my issue.

1. I have an EISY with a device that cycles the power 1/week on Sunday at 12:05 AM - off, and 12:10 - on (currently - can be scheduled).

2. I have a program that turns lights on at Sundown - 20 minutes

3. The program was set to run at startup, so it ran at at 12:12 AM,, then set the next run time at Monday at 8:05 PM. This SKIPPED the Sunday 8:5-ish run and my lights didn't turn on.

4. 

Call me puzzled.

Thoughts from the experts?

@JimTurner would you mind posting a copy of the program that you thought would run? Please select the program, right click on it and select the last menu item "COPY to Clipboard". Then paste the program in your reply. Do NOT post screen shots. This will make it easy for people offering help to edit/comment directly in the program.

Do you have 2 programs with the same name? Why does the top line of your image above not have any time associated with it?

The "turn on" is actually 2 programs: the second is run with no conditions but executed from the "Run Then" in the first (which is scheduled). I used a "Repeat 3 times" in the second as some of my devices didn't respond correctly / consistently. That solved it. (may be overkill, but it worked).

There are no other folder conditions. The governing triggers are the generator switch and the sunset time - 20 minutes. It's the first program that shows the messed up times in the screen snippet above (new snippet attached showing complete line...). I would have expected that the next run should have been Sunset on SUNDAY not Sunset on MONDAY...
