Switch off at specific time

[Ritmeester]

Simple question. This LED strip must go on with Sunset and go off at 01:00 hours in the night.

I can’t find such as:

and go Off at 01:00

Simple answer:

Create a second script: if led strip is on and time = 01:00 then set led strip= off.

Or am I missing something?

Thanks.

But I can´t do this in the same script?

Use timers for such simple things.

Nice, but how ?

You can do it in the same script, use the else if functionality, it's in the blockly with the "+" sign.

As Egregius said, just use switch timers, much easier

Well, in the swich widget, click on "planning", and create two events ...
- One to turn the strip on at sunset
- One to turn it off at 1:00am...

It's that simple.... No need for scripts or Blockry or ....

Or did we all miss something here???

Click on the timers button of the switch and add actions as desired.
