Hey Guys,

I set up the apex over the weekend and everything seems to be working fine except my T5s. They did not shut off at 10:30pm as I have them set to. What am I doing wrong. On fusion, Outlet #1 (T5 Main) shows its off but for instance this morning I plugged the light back into that outlet and they came on. I'm at a loss.

Here is my code for that outlet-

Fallback OFF
Set OFF
If Time 11:30 to 22:30 Then ON
If Temp > 83.0 Then OFF
Min Time 030:00 Then OFF

Please help, thanks.

If the plug is set to auto it should work. Try turning it off and then to auto. If that still dont work. Unplug the eb8 and let it cycle.

I was just told it should be-

Set ON

But now on Fusion after I made the change, the outlet says its ON... but they shouldn't come on until 11:30am.

If all else fails, clear the code and use the light "wizard." where you just input the times on the dialog boxes.

I believe I did set it up that way.

So should it be - Set ON? Others are posting that theres is Set OFF.

is your fusion slider set to auto? (center)

do a test

If Time 08:20 to 08:22 Then ON
If Temp > 83.0 Then OFF
Min Time 000:05 Then OFF

see if it's automating at all.

your slider is set to auto, not on, right?

I would leave it blank for now. When I ran my halides I used:

Fallback OFF ## If the EB8 loses connection from the Apex, the light will turn off
Set OFF ### I don't want my halides on by default, only when the conditions below are met, so I set it to OFF
If Outlet HALIDE_WEEK = ON Then ON
If Outlet HALIDE_WKND = ON Then ON
If Temp > 81.0 Then OFF
Min Time 030:00 Then OFF

Yes Set to Auto.

Here is what I have now-

Fallback OFF
Set OFF
If Time 11:30 to 22:30 Then ON
If Time 22:31 to 11:29 Then OFF
If Temp > 83.0 Then OFF
Min Time 030:00 Then OFF

Wait. You are not home and you are doing this over the internet? Might be timing out
