Title: AHP programming
Post by: Qman on February 18, 2013, 07:28:44 PM
Maybe it's just me, but since downloading 3.318, I don't seem to be able to program things like "dusk-15 minutes" anymore. Today, I downloaded an instruction manual for AHP, but it was old, and said to enter in a time before selecting dusk/dawn, but that did not work either. Has this feature gone away, or have I just forgotten how to use it (never having a manual in the first place).

I don't use 3.318 as it seems to be one of the buggy versions of AHP.   However timers can be made to work like: "ON at DUSK - 45 minutes & DIM to 70%"    Try doing it with one of your lamp modules and see if works properly.   Modules of all types can have timers (and several timers for different times of the day).  Once you have done one module, it's easy to many of them.

What are you seeing when you try and set those timers?
If it doesn't keep the offset you typed in, you might try clicking the up/down arrows AFTER typing in the time manually. That has worked for me in the past. It seems to be a bug in the time-selection dialogs in the GUI.
