Pentair Easytouch control system doesn't follow schedule

This was working until I started playing with the programming. I wanted to change the times that the system would turn on and then turn off and wanted to make sure that the solar heater would turn on when the pumps started. Now it is not turning off once it turns itself on, I.e. It follows the start time but not the end time. I have "Heat" set to Solar and the temp set well above what the pool is actually. In Settings, I have Solor enabled and heat pump set to no. I have one schedule for the pool, I.e. 10AM to 4PM. I have the Cleaner schedule set of 10AM to 2PM. I have a light schedule set to 7PM to 10PM.

I saw one post that said you had to press a start button for the new schedule to take effect but I see no such button on my panel or on my remote. There is there something I need to do to get it to follow the schedule? Right now, I have just hit the Pump button to turn it off.
 
What is the model number of your Pentair ET? Are you using ScreenLogic to program, or directly on the ET panel?

Hint: you'll get quick answers sometimes, if you fill in your signature with all your info, similar to mine (below)...
 
I am having a similar issue. My screenlogic system is not working anymore. I am on my second Protocol Adapter and I do not want to buy another one. I have set a schedule on the panel manually, but it is not following the schedule. Is there something I have to hit on the panel to make it follow the schedule?
