Apex not turning halides on & off

Hi.

This is puzzling.
If you're able to switch the light output to ON and the light comes on, and OFF turns it off, but AUTO doesn't function as intended,
then the circuits themselves are likely ok, so it's a matter of finding what's wrong with the programming.

First thing I'd do is check the system clock on the Clock page in Fusion. Local time and Apex time need to match.

Then I would Enable Logging for each device on its Configuration page, to provide additional troubleshooting info.

Then, if you could please post the actual code for either of the lights, it might be helpful.
Could be something off that's not obvious from the wizard page. And what's on the wizard page may not be the code currently in effect.
Go to the Configuration page, and under Control Type, pull down the menu to Advanced to get the actual code.
 
The hysteresis is for the Temperature fluctuation. You have it set as if it is for the time. Set for 0 or 1.0
 
Well, I looked on the apex controller and found out the time was off. So after fixing that it seems to have fixed the problem. . Thanks for everyone helping me.
