Quick question about the pwm v2. My led driver is powered by a meanwell brick, on the driver the dimming channels share the same ground. So if I have this right, Chan 1, Chan 2, go to the #4, #5 terminal, ground to #6. How many amps do I need for the power supply? I have a 12v 1a.

You have a 5 hour ramp up. Assuming you want the same ramp down your schedule would be:
7am 0%
12pm 100%
4pm 100%
9pm 0%
The way you had it, the lights would peak at 12pm and start ramping down immediately. My suggestion keeps the lights at a certain percentage for a few hours before ramping down. Regardless of the actual times, you will want to use 4 time stamps.

Ok I must be doing something wrong. If I have only two channels, do I only use one Lport? If that's the case then what 0-10v interfaces do I assign to the illumination channels?
The lights sort of work they don't dim to zero and it seems like both channels are sort of combined.

PWM-OUT Pins 4, 5, and 6 go to the Left (L1/L2) yellow port on the PWMv2. If you aren't using the L1/L2 on the back of the Profilux, I would plug into that port and configure Illumination channels 1 and 2 along with 1-10V interface channels 1 and 2 respectively for the percentages.
Here is a link to the manual which might help too.
