Hey guys, I have a new 4 head base station and want to program it as follows;

120ml daily volume
24 daily dosages
10min offset dose from each head

This programming ability is standard template software on other doses that I used. Unless I’m missing something, this looks to be very difficult. I’m hoping there’s a template done for this, or a simpler way than programming 24 doses.

Thanks for your help.
 
Finding a template would be the easiest. Otherwise, you're right, It's going to take a lot of work to program 24 cycles for each versa.

You would think that the "smart" option would've given you the option to break daily dosing into a user preferred number but it does it in one lump sum.
 
Well I went through the trouble of making a template that should be standard. 12 doses on 4 heads offset by 10 mins.

The pumps are not actively dosing for some reason. They are not paused. Any ideas?

The only thing I see is that you have pump 1 and 3 labeled the same (alkalinity) which may or may not create the conflict. I'd test the theory by changing their names.
Thanks. With modern reef there’s 2 alk supplements so it was done intentionally but I understand what you’re saying. I appreciate the help. Oddly enough, it started dosing as scheduled. Not sure what changed lol
