I set up my new DOS yesterday for auto water changes and it looks like everything is correct but they don't turn on at the scheduled time. I went through the setup including calibration and both pumps work fine when I press the button. I'm hoping I'm just missing something and any suggestions would be much appreciated.

Here are a couple of screenshots but let me know if additional views would be helpful.

I don't know if this helps but here is the summary.

Ok, I think I figured out what was going on. I've been messing with it since yesterday but of course right after I post I solve it. It's like calling IT only to have them watch everything function properly...

The issue was a discrepancy between the Apex time and my local time. Basically, I had to push an update and then it synced up.

I'll leave this up in case anyone else runs into this issue in the future.
