    help with code for tunze osmolator 3155

    I have a Tunze osmolator 3155 that is plugged into an apex outlet and it's constant state is ON When the tunze top up the tank water it passes through an Octopus KS-100 kalkstirrer. Problem is the Tunze on occasion (about once a week) has the red light come on which indicates the tunze has entered a fault state and will not resume topping up until the unit is reset this has caused me problems on occasions when i was not home to catch this out. I was thinking about having the unit turn off for 15 minutes a day and then restarted.
    I have some other parameters in my code should the ph rise to high then it will shutoff the tunze until the ph has normalized. The problem is the tunze does not shut down between 10.45 and 11.00pm.

    My code is as follows:
    Fallback ON
    Set ON
    If Time 23:00 to 22:45 Then ON
    If sumppH > 8.65 Then OFF
    If Salt < 30.5 Then OFF
    Min Time 060:00 Then OFF

    Ideally I can probable even get by with the tunze turning off every third day and resetting itself

    That actually turns it off for an hour because of the min time statement.

    hi zombie

    everything worked ok until i inserted the If Time 23:00 to 22:45 Then ON.
    what I thought would happen would be the unit would stay on between 11.00pm and 10:45pm.
    I assumed that it would turn off from 10.45pm until 11.00pm but this doesn't happen.
    the minute statement would kick in if the ph statement or salt statement became true.

    what statement do i need to add to make the unit turn off for 15 minutes per day thanks

    You started with Set ON, so you either need to make it turn off for a time period or change the Set ON to Set OFF and keep the time line as is.

    Min Time applies globally to an outlet so you cannot have the min time apply only to the pH and cond and not also to the time statement unless you separate the pH and cond shutoff into a VO.

    hi zombie,
    checked the code last night and all works well, appears it was my set statement should have been OFF,
    One last question if I want to only reset my tunze controller every second day should i add this line
    If DoW S-T-T-S Then ON
    I was thinking of placing the code here:
    Fallback ON
    Set OFF
    If Time 23:00 to 22:45 Then ON
    If DoW S-T-T-S Then ON
    If sumppH > 8.65 Then OFF
    If Salt < 30.5 Then OFF
    Min Time 060:00 Then OFF

    my logic is that Sunday, Tuesdays, Thursday and Saturdays the tunze would be on 24 hours a day and on Monday Wednesday and Friday it would be off at 10:45 to 11:00:pm

    Is that correct?

    Hi Zombie one other thing, If I wanted to program two solenoids attached to two separate apex outlets to regulate the maximum amount of PH that the kalk reactor may dose when topping up with my tunze osmolator could I program the outlets to look like this

    solenoidkalk
    Fallback OFF
    Set OFF
    If TankpH > 8.35 Then OFF
    If TankpH < 8.25 Then ON

    solenoidfrsh
    Fallback OFF
    Set OFF
    If TankpH > 8.35 Then ON
    If TankpH < 8.25 Then OFF

    Not quite. You would want this instead.

    solenoidkalk
    Fallback OFF
    If TankpH < 8.25 Then ON
    If TankpH > 8.35 Then OFF
    Min Time 060:00 Then OFF

    solenoidfrsh
    Fallback ON
    Set OFF
    If Output solenoidkalk = OFF Then ON

    help with code for tunze osmolator 3155

    Hi zombie,

    tried out the program for the two solenoids
    one small problem when the tank ph is under 8.25
    then the solenoidkalk is in a off state which means the kalkwasser is off
    and the solenoid that bypass and allows the fresh water in is in a on state
    which means that if this condition remains then the tank will ultimately have a drop in ph.
    any idea how i can fix this condition

    Solenoid kalk will be on when tank pH is less than 8.25 unless it turned off less than 60 minutes ago.
