One of my Device’s would not work on timers after updating. I added new timers to that device and they also would not show up in the history data so I know it not just poor communication. It would turn on and off from app manually but neither timers or D/D worked. I deleted the device completely and then re-added it and that fixed it, now it’s working.
A fairly simple fix and maybe obvious but I hope that this helps someone else.

I think I spoke to soon, dust -90 is not working for me but dust -60 is working. Is dust -90 working for anyone ? B:(

Tucson,
Looks like you’re keeping track of actual times. Is the timer executing based on dusk or sunset?
-
Sunrise and sunset to the minute.
-
X10 support just confirmed that the times are indeed S/S ( but we knew that!).
I suggested that they change the nomenclature in the app. It’s misleading and confusing.

Still would like to know. Is dust -90 working for anyone ? B:(

I’ll test one of my lights tonight.

It worked for me.

Since you are close to me, I'm curious on what time the unit is considering dusk this time of year?

Note that it’s not dusk,it’s sunset (or sunrise). If you want dusk (or dawn), you need to use the offsets.

Today it thinks sunset in AZ is at 8:10 pm which is one hour late.

It worked for me.
Ceedee, Thank You very much for for trying out the D/D setting. Just want to make sure you tried turning on at dust -90. I have tried several devices at -90 and they all fail to send anything but when I set -60 they all work.
I may have a bad unit but this seem more like firmware. Note I would not need -90 if they had not broke AZ d/d. Also I wish they would have allowed 5 minute resolution.
-
I have a bogus device set right at dusk at it recorded an on signal at 8:14 pm, so it looks like sunset plus one hour. -75 and -90 are not responding, but -60 is, so looks like we are in need of a firmware update?
-
Given multiple reported failures, I’m thinking that my info is bad. I looked at the log, but it had been overwritten. Let me try again tonight.
-
As promised...
The light on L4 turned on at 6:16 EDT, which is just about 90 minutes before sunset.
-
Interesting thing happened two days ago the -90 D/D timer just started working. I did nothing just wait about a week. 8) It’s great that it works but I’m not sure I can trust it.
-
"Intermittent" are the worst things to debug.
-
Since my update to the latest version, I'm missing timer firings. The app won't sync on my android phone. Device States are incorrect. Sometimes a device state reverts to being off without closing the app, but the light is clearly on.
I'm not sure the last build is 100% stable, but I'm pretty sure the software engineer/coder doesn't use the product.

I think we're QA.

Me too, my -90 and -75's have been working now.
I of course have the old Mini Timer to get everything on by 7:30 pm if all else fails.

Actually I spoke to soon, I created several test timers to see if minor settings like house code and dim setting made a difference. Well 3 of the 4 are working now and the one that failed is just a test that I’m not using. Note when I set them up they all didn’t work. Then magically a week later some of them started working.
Since the ones that work are the ones I care about I’m afraid to touch any of the settings at this point. I will wait for the next firmware update and hope.
But I stopped all plans to buy any more X10 switch’s. I had planned to add several more switches after the success of the new Wi-Fi controller but after this I put all that on hold. :-\
