I don't think I've ever tried putting an off command at the end before, but I don't see why it wouldn't work. If I'm reading this right then this would be on for 30 seconds every 30 minutes for about an hour every day which should give you 1 min of on time.

Based on that I'm guessing this is used to dose something. Whenever I'm doing that I always run it with RO water for a day or two to make sure the consumption is what I expected and nothing unexpected happens.

If I am reading the manual correctly it provides:
Fallback OFF
OSC 059:00/1:00/0 Then ON (note that leading zeros in minutes are not required)
If Time 07:00 to 18:00 Then OFF (overrides the OSC during the day and turns outlet OFF)

I think what you are looking for would go:
Fallback Off
Osc 000/000:30/000:30 Then ON
If Time 09:00 to 08:58 Then OFF

The Apex would then read the OSC setting and execute it at 8:59

Maybe @Terence can confirm?

I suppose that may work to.

If 08:59 to 09:01 Then ON

Should be the same.

And so much easier to modify
I would use the OSC for something that had to run several times a day for xx amount of time every xx hours or so.
Like my skimmer neck cleaner. Where if i had to make a change to the amount of time it ran or how often, I could just change the one command (vs making several if xxx to xxx then on)
But for just 1 or 2
If / Then works great
