﻿Each HCL matrix contains the settings for the colour temperature (1,000...10,000 K) for each full hour of the day (0:00 midnight, 1:00 a.m., 2:00 a.m....11:00 p.m.).
Depending on the time of day, the individual colour temperature values are called up one after the other as the day's colour temperature progresses.
The values between two full hours are determined continuously every minute by linear interpolation to implement a smooth colour progression.

In an HCL matrix, separate colour temperature values are always configured for each time. Whether a group or single device reacts only to the pre-programmed colour temperature or additionally to the defined brightness value is defined by the parameter "Type of daytime colour temperature sequence" on the parameter pages of the groups and single devices.

The colour temperature values stored in an HCL matrix can always be configured within the range of 1,000...10,000 K.
If HCL values are outside the range defined by the minimum and maximum colour temperature of assigned groups or single devices, the gateway limits the colour temperature to the defined limits when a daytime colour temperature sequence is running.

The "colour temperature" parameters are available for each full hour of an HCL matrix. The default setting of the parameters depends on the time.
