Hi All, so before posting I did have a look around trying to find if someone had asked this one already as it's possible I'm just being a bit slow,
I have also had a dig around the GHL website and had a look for videos but i can only find one that shows how to set up one item?

So I'm trying to set up the feed mode as per the below, but when I'm in GCC or the app it looks like I can only add one item to the feed mode? ie when I go into the switching channels for the skimmer I can only assign it to one filter (under function)

Feed Mode -15 mins (Fish)
Skimmer off (with delay 5 mins)
Both returns pumps off
Roller Filter (with delay 5 mins)
ATO Off (with delay 5 mins)

Feed Mode - 45 mins (Coral)
Skimmer off (with delay 5 mins)
Both returns pumps off
Roller Filter (with delay 5 mins)
ATO Off (with delay 5 mins)

I would be grateful for any help you could give me as I said it's possible or likely that I'm just not getting it

You will need to use programable logic. Here's how I have mine setup using all four Feed Modes and Two Maintenance Modes to give you an idea how to do it.

Time Delay

Time delay for after each Maintenance Mode is set by G1 and G2.

Time delay for after each Feed Mode is set by G3, G4, G5 and G6.

Actuation of Time delay after either Maintenance Mode is set by G7.

Actuation of Time delay after any of the Feeds Modes is set by G10 (combining through G8 and G9).

Actuation of Time delay after any Maintenance or Feed Mode is set at G11. The G11 logic gate is applied to my skimmer and ATO to delay them 5 minutes after Maintenance or Feed Mode.

Feed Mode

The four Feed Modes are combined using G12, G13 and G14. The G14 logic gate is applied to my powerheads which I turn off during Feed Mode.
