It is turning the output ON for 4 minutes, then OFF for 330 minutes (120 + 110), then ON again for 4 minutes, OFF for 330, etc. in a non-stop repeating manner.

Perfect. Thanks!
Additional bit of info. The first parameter is the offset from midnight. So the cycle will begin at 2:00 am.
Thanks
Could I use
OSC 120:00/004:00 Then ON
instead of
OSC 120:00/004:00/110:00 Then ON
or does it need the third parameter?
Not the case here.
OSC does not reset or restart at midnight (a common misconception) The OSC timings are based on the time which has elapsed from an epoch date/time long in the past. If an OSC’s total cycle time is evenly divisible into 1440 minutes (24 hours), then it will give the appearance of having started at midnight.
Thale’s OSC has a total cycle time of 334 minutes, which is not evenly divisible into 1440 minutes, so it will not be predictable when it occurs other than that each subsequent run will start 334 minutes after the previous run.

Thales, yes, all three duration parameters are required.

Thanks for the clarification. I usually do mine based on a 24hr cycle, for that very reason.
The real question is how long do you want it to come on for, how often you want it to occur (period), and when do you want it to start (offset)
The first value is your offset, the second is your ON time, and the sum of the three is your period.
You might be an engineer if...You have no life and can prove it mathematically.
