Hello. I have a Witty 3 mounted on a Raspberry Pi 3 with the official Raspbian distribution. The power button works correctly. I want the Raspberry Pi to stay on for 5 minutes and off for 10 minutes. For this, I use a script (which I will attach); it shuts down correctly, but it doesn't turn back on. Could you please tell me what I'm doing wrong, or if there is anything not configured correctly? I am attaching the script and a screenshot of the program that tells me when it will shut down and when it will turn on. Thank you very much.
Script:

@quelet-pont The configuration seems good.

You need to confirm your Witty Pi is still being powered when it tries to boot up your Pi. You can tell by checking if the white LED on Witty Pi is still blinking.

If you are using power bank, there is big chance that it goes to sleep mode when your Pi is off, and hence the power to your Witty Pi is fully cut.
