You have here a interval trigger (every second) that translates cleanly to SimpleTrigger. What you need with it is a restriction to only allow it to run in specific time range (2:15 - 5:20). This you can achieve by using a calendar, more precisely a DailyCalendar. You can set daily calendar to have this time range and set the InvertTimeRange to true to include the range instead of default of excluding the range.

Read more about the calendars in the tutorial and DailyCalendar API documentation.
