    Need help woth some skimmer programing.

    I need some help woth some skimmer coding.

    I am having trouble with the last line.
    my desire is if the return pump (cor 15 named ReturnPump) is off that the skimmer turns off as well. But i am not getting the format right.



    Fallback OFF
    Set ON
    If SWoff CLOSED Then OFF
    If SWSkim OPEN Then OFF
    If OS-Smp CLOSED Then OFF
    IF ReturnPump off then off


    the other three lines work and for a off switch (SWoff) skimmer flot switch (SWSkim) and a optical sensor detecting when the sump simmer chamber gets backflooded (very small sump for biocube 32).

    Would also like to add in a 5 min delay on restart if someone could help.

    Does anyone know if they have added comments yet to the code?

    Replace X with a few percentage points lower than what you will run the COR at.


    Fallback OFF
    Set ON
    If SWoff CLOSED Then OFF
    If SWSkim OPEN Then OFF
    If OS-Smp CLOSED Then OFF
    IF Output ReturnPump percent < X Then OFF
    If Power Apex OFF 001 Then OFF




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

    Fallback OFF
    Set ON
    If Output Cor_6_1 Percent < 60 Then OFF
    Defer 005:00 Then ON
    If Sw1 CLOSED Then OFF


    The defer statememt will delay enabling the skimmer for 5 minutes after the Cor comes back to life.

    hope this helps...
