Work time
Configure UTC time windows for each module. Outside the window, the module sleeps. Inside, it runs normally. Default: 24/7.
How it works
Every module has an optional Work Time setting with Start and End fields in HH:MM format (24-hour, UTC).
- Not set: module runs 24/7 (default).
- Start = End: treated as 24/7 (no window).
- Start < End (e.g. 08:00–20:00): simple daytime window.
- Start > End (e.g. 22:00–06:00): overnight window crossing midnight.
Each module has its own independent work time — one module can run 08:00–20:00 while another runs 24/7.
Overnight crossing
When Start is later than End, the module is active from Start to midnight AND from midnight to End.
Example: setting Work Time to 22:00–06:00 means the module is active from 22:00 UTC to 05:59 UTC.
Configuration
Work Time is set per module in the module's settings panel. Enter the Start and End times in HH:MM format (24-hour, UTC). Leave empty for 24/7 operation.
Valid range: 00:00 to 23:59.
Runtime behavior
- When a module cycle starts outside the work window, it pauses until the window opens.
- While paused, the module checks for stop commands every 60 seconds, so it responds to manual stops within a minute.
- Once the window opens, the module resumes its cycle immediately.
