killervette Posted December 4, 2011 Posted December 4, 2011 If From Sunset + 20 minutes To 10:00:00PM (same day) Then Set 'Outlets / Outside:Outside Outlet' On Else Set 'Outlets / Outside:Outside Outlet' Off So this should turn on the outlet 20 minutes after sunset, and then turn them off at 10pm. Correct??
apostolakisl Posted December 4, 2011 Posted December 4, 2011 Yes. At sunset plus 20, the then clause will run At 10pm the else clause will run. So what isn't happening. The sunset part or the 10pm part or both? In your program summary page, does it indicate that the program ran and at what time? Did you double check that you saved the program and that it is "enabled"?

apostolakisl Posted December 4, 2011 Posted December 4, 2011 2 things I think of. 1) Sunset is after 9:40 (unlikely in Dec) 2) The load on the plug is a signal sucker or noise producer. What do you have plugged into it? CFL or incandescent? CFL's can cause troubles.
oberkc Posted December 4, 2011 Posted December 4, 2011 It never turned the outlet off. I will look at the logs if it fails tonight. You don't have to wait. What is the program's current status...True or False. If it is false, then the last time it ran, it ran the "else" path. Opposite is true for "true" status. If the program ran, then most likely a communication problem.
killervette Posted December 6, 2011 Author Posted December 6, 2011 It seems to work fine now. Maybe an I d 10 t error.
