    Feed mode activated before AFS

    Is it possible to activate a feed mode a few minutes before the AFS activates?

    Every time my AFS feeds the food gets blown around the tank.

    Yes. The approach is different depending on whether you do a single rotation or multiple though.

    Then use the typical vFeed approach and in the AFS use this code

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

    Yes. Make a VO like this. This is for 10 minutes after the feeder rotates at noon and 8pm or when feedA is selected.

    vFeed
    Set OFF
    If Time 12:00 to 12:10 Then ON
    If Time 20:00 to 20:10 Then ON
    If FeedA 000 Then ON

    Add
    If Output vFeed = ON Then OFF

    To whatever you want turned off.
