blues on before start time

I recently started a new program using ESL yesterday.
I decided to try the Coral Labs LPS/soft preset.
Got everything set up, made sure the connection manager was running and hit program.
Everything seemed normal. Lights went off at the right time.
Then this morning I looked at the tank and a couple blue leds in both pucks were on just a tiny bit. This was about 6 am, 2-1/2 hours before the schedule was suppose to come on.

Now at 8:15 am they are off.

I don't think they were on after the start of the night schedule, and I don't have the lunar tab activated.

The lights started up exactly on schedule.

Anyone have a clue?
 
I noticed the same thing when I switched to their lps schedule. I had to go in and change the light intensity to 0 after my lights should be off. At first I thought it was a lunar cycle but noticed them on at all hours.

I'm going to try and pay attention tonight. See if it stays on, or comes on during the night.

That's what I had to do last night. Looking in ESL, the blues were on at 50%, so I changed it to 0.
 
So I decided to try the Coral Lab schedule on my other tank. Made sure the lunar schedule was off.
Set it up and first night night, same thing thing. The blues stayed on. I didn't feel like correcting it so when I got up this morning they were still on.
Then about a hour before the day schedule was to start, they were off.
So I just went back to my old schedule.
