Hi Ogbos,
Here is your sample data plotted in roughly the same way as the image.
You can get the hours to start at the bottom, but it will require more
code.
swe$hour<-as.numeric(sapply(strsplit(swe$time,":"),"[",1))
swe$FD<-sample(1:2,nrow(swe),TRUE)
library(plotrix)
clock24.plot(swe$count,swe$hour,rp.type="s",radial.lim=c(3000,4010),
show.grid.labels=0,point.col=swe$FD,mar=c(2,2,6,2))
legend(0,1600,c("FD1","FD2"),pch=1,col=1:2,xjust=0.5,yjust=0.5,
xpd=TRUE)
