    Default Lights switch off 2 hours later than programmed

    Its 3 days now I connected matrxix 8 x 54W to profi3 ex.

    As I am in burning in stage, I have only programmed 2 pairs to switch on together from 14:00 to 21:00 and the other 2 pairs to open from 15:00 to 22:00.

    The lights switch on as programmed but switch off (all together) at midnight, exactly on 00:00.

    I am sure that I had somewere make a mistake, but I can not find it.

    Ticks in the boxes (under simulation menu): Rain days, Cluds, Thunderstrom and in the boxes: dimmable, temp-dep light reduction.
    The burning in time is set to 100 hours.

    What should I check?

    Hi,
    I would check the following:
    -are the functions of the 1-10V-interfaces correctly assigned to the corresponding illumination run?
    -are the times set under illumination run correct?

    Yes & yes.

    If I go to manual dimming I can switch on-off each pair of the matrix to the % I want. That means that the functions of 1-10V are correct.

    Yes, both switch ON on the programmed time, the switch off time is the problem.

    Try to set the 0% and 100% value not exactly to the same time.

    In your case:
    13:59 0%
    14:00 100%
    21:00 100%
    21:01 0%

    and

    14:59 0%
    15:00 100%
    22:00 100%
    22:01 0%
