Question

Hi,
I'm new to Fibaro and Lua, I have just brought this system for my company and am trying to set it up.
We have a compressor that I wish to control and I'm writing a script in Lua.
I have written a simple procedure to start at a set time based on the day and then to turn off at a set time, however due to overtime requirements some times we want to start and stop at different times and sometimes Saturdays.
I don't want to adjust the times myself, I want other employees to be able to set the times but I don't want them in my program so I am hoping that I can use variables.
Therefore have a start time variable, a stop time variable and a Saturday start and stop time variable.
Can someone advise me the format for the variable - ie would 0700 work and how to use this in Lua
Something like
Varible "StartTime" 0700
then in the program
( ((currentDate.wday == 1) and string.format("%02d", currentDate.hour) .. ":" .. string.format("%02d", currentDate.min) ==getGlobalValue("StartTime")) )
Thank you
