I set the timers like this, but for some reason at 9 am it doesn't ramp. Just comes on at 15-15. Any ideas? Nighttime ramp down seems to work ok. I haven't been here during the day yet to observe mid day. Just after 9 am this morning I did mess with the controller but didn't change any settings. It was then that the lights went to 14-15. No clue why. Maybe you can't mess with the controller when it's ramping?? Pls help. Thx

You are correct. If you mess with the controller, during the ramp period, it goes to the value set.

Other than that, your timers seem fine.

Thanks. Do you think this is a long enough period at 25%? It's replacing a 150 MH on a BC29. Right now the light is just above the water because I'm waiting on a mounting part that was incorrect in the initial shipment. Cause of that I don't want to turn it up too much. What do you think?
