    Command Correct?

    I want this circulation pump to turn off during Feed A, and stay off for 5 minutes.


    Fallback ON
    OSC 005:00/005:00/005:00 Then ON
    If FeedA 000 Then OFF
    Defer 005:00 Then ON

    No, set your FeedA duration using the Display module or the Misc Setup web page. Set it for 5 minutes.

    Delete the Defer line.

    Never mind, I forgot I setup (outside home) Internet access to it.

    Thanks

    One more question.

    Does that pump need to be set to "Auto"? I have it set to "On" now.

    ON and OFF are manual overrides. Programming is only executed when an outlet is set to Auto.

    Actually, when I put that pump on Auto, it shuts off.

    Fallback ON
    OSC 005:00/005:00/005:00 Then ON
    If FeedA 005 Then OFF

    You have an oscillate statement that will turn the pump OFF for 5 minutes every 10 minutes - 10 on, 5 off, 10 on, 5 off

    Is that what you want?

    Start by telling us what you're trying to do

    LOL, no.
    I think that was the default when I bought it, and I have had in "On" from day one.

    I want it on 24/7 except when FeedA

    You have been very helpful. May I ask one more thing for now?

    How does this look for my new feeder?
    I want it to come on once everyday at 3:00pm (Cycle A)

    OSC 000:00/000:30/000:30 Then ON
    If Time 00:00 to 15:00 Then OFF
    If Time 15:02 to 00:00 Then OFF
    If FeedA 000 Then ON

    That will work. Technically it will come on at 3:01, but it will work just fine

    The circulation pump did not even turn off from what I can tell from webcam I have on it.

    I would like feeder to feed at 3:00pm with circulation pump off, and stay off for 5 minutes. Then repeat that all at 7:00pm everyday.

    Does it look like I have it setup correct?

    Nope. You need a VO to turn the return off on auto feedings. The way you have it will only turn off the pump when you manually feed with FeedA. Replace "AFS" with the actual outlet name of your AFS

    AFSFeed (VO)
    Set OFF
    If Outlet AFS = ON Then ON
    Min Time 005:00 Then ON

    Change your pump code to this
    Fallback ON
    Set ON
    If Outlet AFSFeed = ON Then OFF
    If FeedA 000 Then OFF

    I figured it out. I had to add:

    Defer 005:00 Then ON

    You need to make it. See this sticky if you are unfamiliar with virtual outlets.

    No. Follow the directions in the sticky I linked.
