    You might get more information in the "Roku Smart Home" section, but if I recall correctly you need two rules to turn a light on and off - one to turn it on and one to turn it off.  If you're trying to set a "Start time" and an "End time" in one rule it won't do what you want.  It's been a while since I played with schedules which is why I suggest posting in the "Lights & power" section:

Thanks for the suggestion. I had just thought to set up 2 separate rules. Definitely will try this and move the discussion if I'm not successful. Thanks again!

I had a problem with one of my outlets not switching when I had it scheduled. After looking closer at my rules I realized I had programmed two conflicting rules for that particular device. Once I removed the one I didn't want, it worked just fine. So look at your rules and make sure you don't have any conflictions. Also don't forget that you can program a scene for a bulb, and it's possible to have a confliction there as well.

    Thank you for the suggestions. Removed original rule and set up separate rules for on and off. Lights are operating correctly.

    Thanks again!
