    Kalkwasser Stirring

    I need help on how to program kalkwasser reactor to come on just 1 minute a day for pump? I thought I had it correct with just having it on a light schedule
    But the other day it was stirring longer than just a minute. Thanks for the help

    Set it up as a powerhead to do this

    Off 05:00

    ON 05:01

    OFF 05:02

    Would this be 1 minute a day?

    The Pump/Powerhead Control Type is meant to alternate a wavemaker-type Pump ON and OFF at frequent intervals. It is not suitable for your kalk stirring.

    Use Set OFF and an If Time statement. Details about using If Time, including an example of what you want to do are in this sticky post : https://forum.neptunesystems.com/sho...ad-This-Thread!

    See the post entitled USING THE IF TIME STATEMENT
