Hey All,
I am using a DOS pump for AWC. Rather than have both in and out run at the same time, I do a four step process:
1) Disable ATO
2) Remove Old SW
3) Replenish New SW
4) Enable ATO
This all takes place between 7:00 and 8:00 am. I use a virtual outlet as a sort of "Master Switch" to enable and disable the entire process. A couple of things happening here.
The virtual outlet turns on at 6:59 and off at 8:01. This action disables the ATO and allows the DOS pumps to run (master OFF statement in DOS programming). To stop the process, I can either turn the virtual outlet off manually, or if the water level in my new SW reservoir is low, it turns off the virtual outlet.
Here is my code for the virtual "Master" outlet:
Fallback OFF
Set OFF
If Time 06:59 to 08:01 Then ON
If Sw4 CLOSED Then OFF
What I would like to do is add some coding so that once the process is started, it will be allowed to complete before turning off. That way if the salt water reservoir gets low, it will complete today's run but inhibit tomorrow's. My initial thought is to only enable the outlet for one minute, but add either a min time or defer statement to prevent it from turning off for at least an hour. This would always allow the dosing cycle to complete if it has been started
I'm curious about any thoughts others might have though. Thanks in advance all,
CS
