want pump on 30 sec on every 15 min. but on all night

[reefsolution]

Hi

I want my pump to turn on for 30 sec. every 15 min. during the day 10:00 to 21:00
but i want to override osc at night and have pump continuous on at night on from 21:00 to 10:00

I have read and search a lot but im french native and dont get the ocs concept it anyone could help me

i use this code but it wont turn on at night

Fallback ON
Set ON
If Time 21:00 to 10:00 Then ON
OSC 000:00/000:15/010:00 Then ON

The code below should do what you want. The logic is fall-thru, so the status of the outlet will be whatever conditional statement changes it last. In your code the OSC will override the If Time statement.

Fallback ON
Set ON
OSC 000:00/000:30/014:30 Then ON
If Time 21:00 To 10:00 Then ON

This code will default to turning the pump on for 30 secs, then off for 14 mins 30 secs (to give you your 30 secs/15 min), and if the time is between 21:00 and 10:00 override this to constant on.

Glad to hear. Happy reefing!

The Set statement is not needed because OSC has explicit ON and OFF states. It can be deleted.

I agree it is redundant. I left it mostly as I include a Fallback for powered outlets and Set for powered and virtual as a default starting position for all my code.

ok i say victory to fast something is wrong it work at night continuous from 21:00 To 10:00
but it never start during the day anyting wrong with my code

Fallback ON
Set ON
OSC 000:00/000:30/014:30 Then ON
If Time 21:00 to 10:00 Then ON
If FeedA 005 Then OFF
Defer 005:00 Then ON
If Output Sicce_2_3 = OFF Then OFF
Defer 001:00 Then ON



Sicce_2_3 is my return pump alway on so it should create conflict

You cant mix defer and OSC the way you did. Defer applies to the entire outlet.

this outlet is my gyre for water movvement i want them off when i stop my return pump and want to have a 1 min delay to let the level up in the tank so it wont slash all over the place
it is what cause the problem? i can't use this function?

Delete the Set ON. It serves no purpose. Delete the Defer 005:00 Then ON too; you can only have a single Defer xxx Then ON statement, and if you do use two or more, only the last one will be operative.

You need to adjust the OSC statement so the ON time is longer than the 1 minute delay created by the Defer 1:00 Then ON statement. Change the middle value in the OSC from 0:30 to 1:30. You must also adjust the 3rd value (OFF duration) to keep the overall OSC cycle time at 15 minutes. Change the OSC line to:

OSC 000:00/001:30/013:30 Then ON

[reefsolution]

should it look like this?

Fallback ON
OSC 000:00/001:30/013:30 Then ON
If Time 21:00 to 10:00 Then ON
If FeedA 005 Then OFF
If Output Sicce_2_3 = OFF Then OFF
Defer 001:00 Then ON

thank a lot this forum is so useful tank to all for the great support
