One row per day, on one clock (IST). Band: the tithi. Box: Aparahna. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.
The first shraddha of Pitru Paksha is done in aparahna, the fourth fifth of the day. Pratipada runs from 13:18 on Sat 20 Sep to 11:50 on Sun 21 Sep, so only Saturday’s aparahna (13:35–16:01) falls within it. No text giving Pitru Paksha begins’s time was found; aparahna is Tithika’s convention.
