    Outlet To Remain Off After Power Loss

    Hi All!

    I'm trying to figure out how to program an outlet to remain off after a power loss. There are plenty of references on how to have the outlet remain off for a certain period of time, but I want it to remain off until some action is taken on my part.

    The application for this is one of those skimmer pumps that doesn't like to start properly on it's own.

    Any ideas?

    Make sure you are current on firmware or this command won't be available to you.

    There are two ways to do this depending on your current code. Replace the EB8_X with your energy bar name (likely EB8_3 if you didn't rename it)


    If your current code is just

    Fallback OFF
    Set ON


    Then you can do this

    Fallback OFF
    Set ON
    If Power APEX Off 010 Then OFF
    If Power EB8_X Off 010 Then OFF
    When Off > 009:00 Then OFF




    If you have other coding that turns the skimmer off that you want it to restart for on its own, then you need to use a virtual outlet to separate it. I can list that code if it applied to you.

    You might be an engineer if...You have no life and can prove it mathematically.
