Muttley000 Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 My suggestion is to wire it. Seems like a lot of people’s issues go away once it is wired Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crimsonvice Posted February 19, 2018 Author Share Posted February 19, 2018 Yeah.... I figure that would be the best option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crimsonvice Posted May 21, 2018 Author Share Posted May 21, 2018 Help with some code. I am wanting to turn off my skimmer from 0000-0300 to see if this will help raise my nitrates some. I created a VO called Skimmer_Rest and here is the code for both outlets. Skimmer_Rest Set OFF If Time 00:00 to 03:00 Then ON Skimmer Fallback OFF Set ON If FeedA 000 Then OFF If ATO_HI CLOSED Then OFF If Output Maintenance = ON Then OFF If Output ReturnPump = OFF Then OFF If Output Skimmer_Rest = ON Then OFF If Power Apex Off 001 Then OFF Defer 007:00 Then ON Will this achieve the outcome I am looking for?

This looks worth a try. Copy the code into a different outlet and log that output to try it out. Question, will your sump level rise when your skimmer is turned off and trip out the high sensor on your ATK? If so you will want to block that error message when skimmer rest is true. If you are experiencing high evaporation in those 3 hours your ATK may not be able to finish in the first cycle after the skimmer comes back on, not sure how to get around that Edited May 21, 2018 by Muttley000 Autocorrect thinks skimmer should be slimmer!

There is enough room in the sump for it to handle the excess water without tripping the high sensor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crimsonvice Posted May 22, 2018 Author Share Posted May 22, 2018 I adjusted the time to run from 2100-0300. So far it looks as if it is working. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
