When I go into FeedD , which shuts the return of for 45 minutes to do tank maintenance such as water changes or what not...everything should be off.

But for some reason my mp40's remain on. Not sure why, and with me being computer stupid, I figured I'd better ask for help.

the code is:

Set ReefCrst
If FeedA 000 Then ReefCrst
If FeedB 000 Then Nutrient
If FeedC 000 Then ReefCrst
If FeedD 000 Then OFF
if Time 23:00 to 08:00 Then Lagoon


I have no idea why they aren't turning off when I go into FeedD

Actually nothing is turning off with FeedD. My heaters are still on, even though the code says: If Output Sicce = OFF Then OFF

Is the sicce turning off?
If not it won't kill the heater either


Are you running your MPs through a WXM?

yes the sicce turns off. and yes, that mp40's are running through the WXM. if I go into feedA, they do what they are supposed to...for some reason they aren't turning off in FeedD

Fallback OFF
If Output Sicce = OFF Then OFF
If Tmp < 77.7 Then ON
If Tmp > 78.5 Then OFF
If Tmp < 70.0 Then OFF

Put the output sicce statement at the bottom of the coding. You temp statements are overriding it

Like you time statement is overriding your MP off command

Yep, did that and it worked. Good stuff. Never knew there was a priority order.

Yes it reads from top to bottom. The last valid statement takes action. It starts at the top and works down. So it was reading
sicce off then turning back on due to the temp statement.

Glad it worked out!
