In programming a Powerlink G3 schedule, the error message "OFF Time must be later than ON Time" appears. What is the problem and how do you solve it?

Issue:
In programming a Powerlink G3 schedule, the error message "OFF Time must be later than ON Time" appears.  What is the problem and how do you solve it?

Product Line:
Powerlink G3 Controllers
NF1000G3, NF2000G3,  NF3000G3, NF3000G3C, NF3500G4

Environment:
Powerlink Programming

Cause:
Powerlink requires that the OFF time of a schedule period is later than the ON time.   No time period can span across midnight, from one day into the next day.  This means that "overnight schedules" such as "On at Sunset" and "Off at Sunrise" are not possible.

Resolution:
One must divide the schedule into 2 periods.   Each schedule in Powerlink is capable of storing up to 24 periods.  A period is a span of time within a single day.  A period can not span across 2 days.
Period 01 = ON-Time to Midnight.
Period 02 = Midnight to OFF-Time
