[SOLVED] ilumination graph issue

**hani** · 19.02.2011, 20:08

Am trying to set dim. T5, I mant the light to start at 8:00AM and reach 100% at 12:00PM, and off at 5:00PM. The graph acts strange.
if i do it on the Pro5 then open it with pro 6 it looks fine!
am also not sure why the brightnes on the graph marked up to 125%
thanks

the 125 % thingy is simple if they make the graph to 100% you can't easily see the lines when they are @ 100 %

i kept trying for 1 hour, i cant make the simple program above, light on at 8.00am, then goes at 100% at noon ,then off at 5.00

It does exactly what you ask for :
- Start illumination at 8:00am
- rising up to 100% until 12:00pm
- rising down to 0% until 5:00pm

Sunrise for four hours and sundown for five hours is very long, I think.

I would code anything like
8:00am - 0%
9:00am - 100%
4:00pm - 100%
5:00pm - 0%

If you look at the graph there are 2 red line at noon, and it also shows there is light at 0,2,4,6 AM!
The red line should start at 8:00am, then hit 100% at noon and down to zero at 5:00pm.

the second screen shoot shows you suggested program, still does not look right, still red line goes across all the time.

Looks like there is a sorting mismatch in PLC6 - PM is sortet in before AM which causes the wrong graph I think
I do not have that issue due I´m using european notation, so it´s automatically sorted correct.
