    COR 20 feed mode question

    Is it possible to have the pump slow down prior to feed mode? When my AFS starts (feed mode), a fair amount of food is still making it into the overflow, even though the pump is slowing down. I would like the pump to slow down 3-5 minutes before the afs kicks on. Any advice is appreciated.

    For a single rotation of the AFS you do this basic form. This is a 2 minute delay with feedings at noon and 6 or when FeedA is pressed.

    vFeed
    Set OFF
    If Time 12:00 to 12:06 Then ON
    If Time 18:00 to 18:06 Then ON
    If FeedA 000 Then ON

    AFS
    Set OFF
    If Output vFeed = ON Then ON
    Defer 002:00 Then ON

    COR
    (Existing code)
    If Output vFeed = ON Then 1


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

    I have a follow up question. Can you use the OSC command, to accomplish multiple drum rotations, in the virtual outlet?

    Yes, but if you want the pumps to remain off more than 30 seconds after the final drum rotation you need a second virtual outlet to stop the rotations.

    Ex 3 rotations

    vFeed
    Set OFF
    If Time 12:00 to 12:08 Then ON
    If Time 18:00 to 18:08 Then ON
    If FeedA 000 Then ON

    AFSstart
    Set OFF
    If Output vFeed = ON Then ON
    Defer 002:00 Then ON

    AFSstop
    Set OFF
    If Output vFeed = ON Then ON
    Defer 005:00 Then ON

    AFS
    OSC 000:00/000:30/000:30 Then ON
    If Output AFSstart = OFF Then OFF
    If Output AFSstart = ON Then OFF

    COR
    (Existing code)
    If Output vFeed = ON Then 1
