Neither of these two complained:
DOWNTIME=0:0000:2359:OffSunday,6:0830:2359:OffSaturday
DOWNTIME=0:0000:2359:OffSunday,1:1930:0730:nightlyoff,2:1930:0730:nightlyoff,3:1930:0730:nightlyoff,4:1930:0730:nightlyoff,5:1930:0730:nightlyoff,6:0830:2359:OffSaturday
The latter one could be shorter:

DOWNTIME=0:0000:2359:OffSunday,W:1930:0730:nightlyoff,6:0830:2359:OffSaturday
However that second one didn't disable the host, should it be as it is
obviously within that time frame?
Note that with DOWNTIME, the hosts will only go blue (disabled) if they are 
actually detected as being down. So if you're just rebooting them (which takes
a couple of minutes) then you may not see anything blue during the period.

Of course, there should not be anything red.
