Tried to find a thread as I’m sure it’s around. Would like to set my skimmer to come on at 2100 and off at 0900. My skimmer in apex is set as a skimmer so won’t allow me to add code. Need the steps and code to allow this option. Thanks!

Have the skimmer set to auto and set the programming the way mentioned. The skimmer did not come on at 2100? Is it because apex time is 2 hours behind local time?

you should have your apex set to your local time, or whatever time the apex is in.

try this

Fallback Off
Set ON
If Time 09:00 to 21:00 Then OFF


-Fallback off is so when your apex is disconnected from wifi, or its not reading the brain, the skimmer will stay in off
-set on means the default will be On unless otherwise directed
the third line signifies that, between the hours of 900 and 2100 the skimmer will be off

I changed the times in the programming to what the apex time is and it worked. How can I change the apex time to match my local time?
