    PMUP programming

    Need some help with
    Programming. I'm going to put the PMUP in my ATO container and want to pump RODI into my kalk reactor to dose a small amount of kalk at night. I'd like to dose let's say 4 times per night about 2 hours apart. Let's say 10pm for 10 seconds, midnight for 10'seconds, 2 am for 10 seconds and 4am for 10 seconds... thanks in advance

    Might be a better way, but I'd do:
    Fallback off
    Osc 000:00/000:10/001:50 then on
    If time 00:02 to 01:59 then off
    If time 02:02 to 03:59 then off
    If time 04:02 to 21:59 then off
    If time 22:02 to 23:59 then off

    Simpler and more efficient program:

    Fallback OFF
    OSC 000:00/000:10/119:50 Then ON
    If Time 06:00 to 21:59 Then OFF

    Ok Russ, I think that's working fine. Now how would I write code for a pH failsafe? if pH=>8.4 then off ?

    Apex does not understand => just the symbols singly. At the end of the code for the outlet put

    If pH > 8.39 Then OFF

    at the end of the program.

    Since this is a problem you probably want to put the same line in your alarm outlets so you get warned when this happens.

    To clarify for the OP:

    In the email alarm outlet program, you'd add a similar line, which ends in ...Then ON

    Thanks guys for the help. Pump is working, but the graph is one hour off it seems. I watched it last night right at 22:00 and it did come on for 10 seconds, but the graph shows it coming on at 23:00 odd?

    Time on the Apex can be very confusing and I am not completely sure about it. One thing is that the Apex can be set to a time zone offset that does not match where you are. In Fusion you will see 2 times, what time your computer thinks it is and what time the Apex thinks it is. All the times in the graphs and programming are based on what time the Apex thinks it is.

    Check the Clock settings in your Apex. I suspect that the time zone is wrong for you there in AZ. It should be -7, and DST disabled. If you change it, restart the Apex.

    Also check your computer timezone setting.
