    Vortech going into feed with afs

    Hi I set up my wxm tonight on my 2016 and with some advice set a profile and got feed mode working.

    I want to link it to my afs so the vortechs go to constant 20% for 5 mins when the afs comes on.

    I tried this (If Outlet Feeder_3_1 ON Then MPs-20) but the pumps go back to the schedule once the afs goes off.

    Do I need to set other profile up? Or some different code?

    Thanks
    Tim

    You need to use a virtual outlet to trigger both the AFS and the pumps.

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

    So will this work?



    One drum rotation at 10am

    The last statement in for my vortech profile so they run at 20% constant but will the time statement work?

    No. It needs to be like this. This runs for 6 minutes so the drum rotation can be delayed by 1 minute before turning on.

    vFeed
    Set OFF
    If Time 10:00 to 10:05 Then ON
    (Optional add feed statements here)

    AFS
    Set OFF
    If Output vFeed = ON Then ON
    Defer 001:00 Then ON

    Return
    (Existing code)
    If Output vFeed = ON Then OFF

    MP40 advanced tab (gear icon)
    (Existing code)
    If Output vFeed = ON Then profilename
