auto - mode not working #56

Hi !

Great node, I was very happy to find it. I would like to use it to switch ON/OFF the pump in my garden pond.

English is not my native language, maybe I do not use the node correct, but it is not working.

See screenshot from my test flow and node settings scheduler1 scheduler2

Manual ON/OFF is working fine. AUTO turns the ovveride off, but output stays OFF, regardless, the setting, that it should be ON this time of day...

Don't know, what I'am missing ... butu as said, not native english and also being quiet a newbie with node-red

You probably want to change the "Dusk / Dawn" setting to "Schedule Only" to make it ignore the sun elevation and only use the schedule.
