I have my box set to Power ON at 05.49 hrs and Power OFF at 00.53 hrs.

It goes into OFF OK but does not always come ON. Power ON seems rather
intermittent. If I go into settings and check the times, for a week or so
after it comes ON OK but after a while it decides not to.

Is there a setting I am missing for this function or do I have a faulty
unit.

Did I not read of this problem on this very group a few weeks ago, or am I
hallucinating again?
Can blind people hallucinate, sure they can.

Mine does this too. A reset to defaults fixes it (for a while).
I have fed this and other problems back to Humax CS but got no reply...

This happens occasionally with my Humax Freeset PVR. If I look at the
time settings and then exit without changing anything it works again
for a week or two. I have tried to relate it to how the box was used
the previous night, but nothing seems relevant.

snap.....and its rather odd that we do not change any of the time settings.

I too have reported this fault to Humax.

Well you could hallucinate visually for a start.
