    Setting up my feed settings

    I would like to have my mp10s to turn on to a set profile after being off for half the time of my feed cycle.

    The code I was trying to use is
    If FeedA 005 then off then Defer 005 then mp10_feed

    But when I try this it resets to the standard

    If FeedA 005 then off

    How would I be able to do this so it works

    I suggest you download a copy of the comprehensive reference manual from the Neptune links above. I use it whenever I program something to make sure my syntax is correct. There is a summary chart at the back with the commands and their syntax.

    In your case you cannot combine two commands into one line. The defer needs to be separate.

    also you cannot set something up to run half of a feed duration. You could set the feed timer for the half time and add additional time to everything else. And FYI the feeda 005 will run it for the feed duration and add 5 additional minutes after the feed timer expires.

    I understand that my feed timer is 5 minutes and the 5 additional minutes through this command, then I would like 5 more minutes where it does my mp10 feed profile that has the 2 mp10s run at 5% Nutrient export mode. I have done it before I just don't remember how

    Thank you for the reply. I have the comprehensive guide already, it's a really dry read though and I couldn't find anything that would help me with what I'm trying to do

    Ok I need some help this code stopped working after the last update and I wanted to see if anyone has an advice on how to make a working one again. What I want is a time with nothing one to feed the fish and coral then a time on nutrient export to pull food back in to the water column after that a time with slow flow to keep for in the water column and after that a high flow to pull out any extra Food out of the nooks and crannies and get it in to the overflow.
