Apex Skimmer Power Failure Help

[Hair Algae Wizard]

Folks,

I'd like to setup my skimmer so that it doesn't turn back on for 20 minutes after a power failure. My current setup is this:

Fallback ON
Set ON
If FeedA 005 Then OFF
Defer 020:00 Then ON

Can some please advise on what I need to add to have the skimmer come on 20 minutes after a power failure?

Thanks!

That defer statement will keep it off for 20 minutes :) That will also keep it off for 20 minutes after your feed cycle

Thanks, but that is for the Feed Cycle. Will it also automatically work in the event of a power failure?

Yes

It will turn back on when the power is restored for a brief moment until your Apex resets itself. At least I know mine does.

I'm trying to avoid having the skimmer overflow if there is a power failure. Will give this a go in a bit to test. :)

I have my defer set at 3 minutes, never had an issue.

Here's my code:
Fallback OFF
Set ON
If Output RetPump = OFF Then OFF
Defer 003:00 Then ON
