Hello reefers!

Happy Sunday!

I am new to Apex and was trying to program the output dedicated to the skimmer to delay by 2 minutes when power went out, is this the correct coding?

If Power EB832_2 OFF 002 Then ON

Thanks in advance!

Don't think so. I believe you need a "Defer" statement. Here's how I have programmed mine so that the skimmer turns off when the return pump is off, and then delays 5 minutes after the return pump is back on before starting up again:

Fallback OFF
Set ON
If Output O3_RetPmp = OFF Then OFF
Defer 005:00 Then ON

BUT - there's lots of ways to skin the Apex cat!! There's a thread in here about programming the Apex, and I think this was one of the examples. Look for "Neptune Apex Programming Tutorials" by Suncrest Reef. Good luck!!

Here's what I have for my skimmer:

Fallback ON
Set ON
If Output ReturnPump = OFF Then OFF
If FeedA 010 Then OFF
Defer 002:30 Then ON
