OK what I have a dwarf seahorse tank that I am trying to feed baby brine shrimp to 4 times a day. I have a container that sits next to the tank that I keep live brine in and 4 times a day a pump kicks on and over flows the brine tank into the seahorse tank feeding the seahorses 4 times a day. It all works great except using the time command the pump has to kick on for 1 minute which is too long. the first feeding feeds way too much not leaving much brine for the later feedings. If I add a defer command will it lessen the amount of time the pump is on? for example, this is my program now:
Fallback OFF
Set OFF
If Time 10:00 to 10:01 Then ON
If Time 14:00 to 14:01 Then ON
If Time 17:00 to 17:01 Then ON
If Time 21:00 to 21:01 Then ON
So at 10, 2, 5 and 9 the pump kicks on for exactly 1 minute, and it works like a charm, but if I wanted to shorten the time the pump was on to say 20 seconds:
Fallback OFF
Set OFF
If Time 10:00 to 10:01 Then ON
If Time 14:00 to 14:01 Then ON
If Time 17:00 to 17:01 Then ON
If Time 21:00 to 21:01 Then ON
Defer 000:40 Then ON
would this accomplish this?
