    Programming the AutoFeeder Questions

    I bought it a couple months ago, actually had it on the tank, and finally plugged it in this weekend.

    Wow, it's noisy! Luckily it doesn't run very often.

    BTW, don't ever do anything related to the food container while it's attached to the tank. I learned the hard way on that one

    Anyway, what would the programming look like if I wanted it to run the Auto Feeder a few times per day and shut the WAV pumps off when it was dumping food?

    Follow up question... Where do you guys typically mount yours? I haven't found a good spot that makes all the fish happy.

    There are several approaches depending on exactly what you want to happen. Do a search of vFeed in the forums to see some examples and determine which method you are comfortable coding and what features you want (eg number of rotations, delayed AFS start, etc). Post up any questions you have after deciding the route you want.
