    Help Writing Program to Turn OFF skimmer & DOS when return pump OFF

    Thank you for your help.

    I would like my skimmer and DOS to turn off when the return pump is off and come back on with the return pump is on.
    How do I write a program to accomplish this? (I've searched and experimented with no success.)

    Current Skimmer program:

    Fallback ON
    Set ON
    If FeedC 010 Then OFF
    If FeedD 060 Then OFF
    If Swx5_1 CLOSED Then OFF
    If Swx5_2 CLOSED Then OFF
    If Swx5_3 CLOSED Then OFF
    If Swx5_4 CLOSED Then OFF

    Current DOS program:

    Fallback ON
    Set ON

    Thank you! Thank You!

    Just add the line

    If Output Returnpumpname = OFF Then OFF

    To the end of each.

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

    Are you sure? That is not a valid DŌS program, at least not valid in real life usage. That program would make the DŌS run 7/24.
    Please do not send me PMs with technical questions or requesting assistance - use the forums for Apex help. PM me ONLY if the matter is of a private or personal nature. Thanks.
