    is there a way to defer on one alarm state and not others in the same program?

    Here is my program; it is designed to alarm / email / warn if certain conditions are true

    Set OFF
    If LEAK_E OPEN Then ON (east-side tank leak)
    If LEAK_W CLOSED Then ON (same but west)
    If POOP_O OPEN Then ON (skimmer overflow)
    If HIGHSU OPEN Then ON (overfilling my sump ugh)
    If RES_L CLOSED Then ON (ato res running empty)
    If pH > 8.40 Then ON


    I'd like to be able to alarm on the ph - then defer and check it's condition in 30 minutes - any way to do this?

    note, the Leak alarms shut off the reactors (which are one of the few things that can cause a leak alarm)
    the poop-switch turns off the skimmer
    the low reservior turns off the ATO pump

    thoughts??

    oh, Im dripping KALK so I cannot really turn that off.

    Just set your re-email delay to 30 minutes , if the condition is still present you will get anoother email , if all OK then : peace and quiet . This will apply to the whole email outlet . If you only want to check for high pH then you will need a VO .
