Could you explain? Each `schedex` node gives you two scheduled events, called "on" and "off", but you can use them however you like. I don't see what prevents you from having as many `schedex` nodes as you want.

BTW, a recent discussion dealt with programming `schedex` and other timers from the dashboard. I posted a [flow](https://discourse.nodered.org/t/looking-for-a-gui-to-define-input-for-schedex/8938/16) that might give you some ideas for your project.
