Apex outlet off not auto

[psumms]

For such a simple part of my setup, this morning this has been driving me crazy! Does using WHEN set to manual OFF? I have a chain of actions triggered across several outlets running my RO tank fill. All work fine apart from an auto-flush that I have run for five minutes first. If i set to 'Auto' all works fine, runs for five minutes but the switches to manual 'OFF' and so doesn't auto trigger next time. Seems the WHEN causes this?

Fallback OFF
Set OFF
If Output RO-SOLENOID = ON Then ON
When On > 005:00 Then OFF
If Output RO-PUMP = ON Then OFF

I am sure someone can help you here but could also post on the neptune forum - which has loads of people who review code.

Yes, the When command was created to act as a failsafe to prevent flooding or running pumps dry if the output is on longer than expected. It is the only command capable of moving a slider from AUTO to OFF or ON. See my tutorial on Apex Timers for more details and examples: https://www.reef2reef.com/ams/neptune-apex-programming-tutorials-part-2-timers.689/

The when command can be useful, but I also have mine trigger an email alert so I know to go back in and reset the outlet to auto.
