I want to specifiy a time window that spans over midnight:

I am trying:

 
Code
if time >=2300 and time < 0300 then begin
I also tried:
 
Code
inputs:
	time_start(2300),
time_window_len(200);

//set time window 
time_end = time_start+time_window_len;
if time >=time_start and time < time_end then begin

However, none of which produce the desired result.

Anyone point me in the right direction?

darkflare,

a time can't be equal or greater than 2300 and less than 300 at the same time. That's why
 
Code
if time >=2300 and time < 0300 then begin
can not work. However instead of requiring both time checks to be true, you can check for just one being true by using the logical OR instead of AND. This way your check would be true if the tested time is >= 2300 OR the tested time is < 300.

Regards,

ABCTG
