The HCA scheduling features give you lots of abilities to schedule a device to be controlled, for example, every Tuesday or on the 1st of the month. One thing it can't do directly is to schedule a device to be controlled during a set time of year, for example, from December 20th to January 2nd.
Step 1
Create a program that will perform the action you want, for example, controlling a device.
Step 2
Create a schedule entry that controls the program every day at the time you want. For example suppose you want "Great Room - Lights" to come on at 6:30pm.
28
Step 3
In the program test the range of dates that you want the action to happen and if within the range then execute the actions otherwise just exit
38
And that it. Each day the program runs and for most of the year it just exits. But for 15 days of the year it controls your lights.
