Prerequisites

- Plugload Firmware v3.1 and above.

Day
A typical day period is from 09:00 to 18:00.
Astro Clock: Choose a time offset in the range of +/-15, 30, or 60 minutes to start the daytime before or after Sunrise, so the controlled outlets turn on/off a few minutes before or after Sunrise according to the profile settings.
For example, if you want the outlets to turn on 60 minutes after sunrise, set a time offset of Sunrise +60 min; if you want them to turn off 15 minutes before sunrise, set a time offset of sunrise -15min.
Evening
A typical Evening is from 18:00 to 21:00.
Astro Clock: Choose an Astro Clock time offset in the range of +/- 15, 30, or 60 minutes to end the daytime before or after sunset. Based on the time offset, the controlled outlets are turned off a few minutes before or after sunset.
For example, if you want the outlets to turn on 30 minutes after sunset, set a time offset of sunset +30 min; if you want them to turn off 60 minutes before sunset, set a time offset of sunset -60 min.
