    Help code for powerhead

    Sorry new to forums, not sure how to post a new thread. I want my left side power heads to be on for half a hour then off, the my right side power head to come on when left is off for half a hour, then both on for a half hour. For the life of me, I can’t get the code right. Help please!

    What power heads do you have? and are they plugged into an energy bar or via a module?

    Your description is really confusing, so this may be completely different than what you want.

    This will do left only for 1 hour, then both for 30 min, then right only for 1 hour, then both for 30 minutes, then repeat.

    Left
    OSC 000:00/090:00/090:00 Then ON

    Right
    OSC 060:00/090:00/030:00 Then ON

    That's the correct code for your description of what you wanted. What about it doesn't work the way you wanted?

    disregard, after running these like the above program, I became quickly annoyed with the start up sounds of the pumps, as did my dogs! Need to buy the wav pumps
