Can't change Time Plan Settings

[grcgto]

Per the title - I would like to customize the settings on my Dahua/EmpireTech camera which would need, at a minimum, to have Day and Night different settings/profiles. But I cannot change the time plan settings in the camera. I have tried:

• different browsers (chrome, firefox, IE, Edge in IE mode though that mode doesn't seem to be available anymore)
• updated the camera firmware (which btw then requires a modern browser, IE doesn't work)
• with/without the browser plugin (since the firmware update it's not installed)

Screenshot of what the time plan settings look like attached.

Any advice appreciated!

You are on the day profile. You need to be on night profile and then draw the purple blocks for the time you want the night profile.

Tried, I think correctly. I change the Profile to "night" (drop down box at the top of this particular page), click on "night" in the Time Plan settings, and try to change or fill in different times. Nothing changes.

Edit - I can move the day slider but can't change or insert any new colors. Not sure what I'm doing wrong.

Found it. You have to click and drag the cursor in any clear space in the bar.

It is a kinda awkward setup until you do it a few times.

With the night profile selected, click and hold anywhere on the timeline and then move left or right to get the color to change for that profile.

Yep - thank you.
