So, I’d like my halides to come on at 8am, turn off at 1pm, then turn back on at 5pm and off again at 9pm (Avoiding the hottest part of the day in the summer!). However, I can’t figure out how to do multiple on/off cycles in a single day on Hydros. Can anyone help me out, or does the capability not exist? Thanks!
 
Create two MH outputs one for each schedule but leave the output device as none on these outputs. Then create a output using the combiner output type. This output type accepts other outputs as inputs. Set it for 2 inputs. Use the two MH outputs with you schedules as the two inputs.Set the combiner mode to OR. That way if either of the two outputs are on the combiner output will be on. Also make sure the inputs on the combiner are not inverted.I think the default is not inverted. That way if the output is active the combiner will be active. Set the output device on the combiner to the outlet for you lighting. Hope this helps.
