    Only cancelling FeedA will turn the pump back on immediately. FeedB and FeedC have additional delays in the code that prevent the pump from coming back on for 20-60 minutes after the feed mode ends.

    I use feed B for water changes and maintenance. I programmed it for 60 minutes, but rarely need 60 minutes to finish. I want to add a line of code to make "cancel" work for all the feed cycles. Is it possible? Right now I have to hit feed A and then "cancel" to re start the pump before the program time has elapsed.

    Unless the logic has changed without me noticing, cancel has always ignored the additional delay after the feed mode as long as it is pressed before the feed cycle ends.

    What is probably happening is that you are using the feed mode incorrectly. Things that require a delay like a skimmer pump should use a defer statement and the length of time for the feed mode should be configured in the misc setup page not through the additional time field. The exception to this would be layered feeds for something like a flushing scheme for a powerhead after a fish feeding or coral feed that you have no intent to cancel.

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

    Can I access the "misc setup page" using the mobile version of Fusion? I only have access with a tablet or phone.

    It's the wrench icon.

    867825B5-505F-449F-B95A-886B30504572.jpgThe wrench icon doesn’t have a menu for adjusting feed cycles. I’m pretty sure you can’t do it with the mobile platform. Thanks for the help!
