Can someone give me a one liner that will work to seems me an alarm via apex for my dosing pumps?

Like...

if Ca pump on longer than 10 minutes then alarm

Is there something that will work like that?

I believe my alarm it's set up since i get am alarm via text if power goes out and back on. I just really suck at the programming. Would not even know where to look to make sure it will function.

I use this on another application but it should work. Im not an expert though :)

"If outlet CA_PUMP ON = then ON"
"Defer 10:00 then ON"

2. On your alarm program add:
"If outlet Ca_Alarm ON= then ON"

The code provided above uses a virtual outlet called
Ca_Alarm
which you must create.

It assumes that you have renamed an energy bar outlet to
CA_PUMP
and that your calcium pump is plugged into that outlet.

The first two lines of code are the program for the virtual outlet and should read:

If Outlet CA_PUMP = ON Then ON
Defer 10:00 then ON


The third line of code that goes in the email alarm outlet program should read:

If Outlet Ca_Alarm = ON Then ON

Yes, that is what I meant. Better description though :)

I'm going to have to try to take a screen shot and have you guys circle where I'm supposed put that alarm code. I'm not following at all really.

The outlet where the ca pump is QT_Ca - (4_4) and the program reads
Fallback OFF
Set OFF
If Time ---- to ---- Then ON
If Time ---- to ---- Then ON (etc, etc)

So do I change anything on that screen?

Here is a screen shot of my dash. If someone could point out where the alarm code needs to go?

Right under the graph of TempQT is an outlet called EmailAlm. All email alarm program code goes in this outlet's code.

To that outlet's left are two outlets named SndAlm and SndWrn. Those are outlets you can program to have the base unit sound an alarm or sound a warning. The manual explains these outlets well. Have a read.

Perfect, thanks
