I am creating this thread I hopes that the confusion in the reading of the Comprehensive manual can be made simpler from user on this forum.
For example:
I spent an hour looking around on adding and trouble shooting an energy bar.
Issue: after plugging everything in for the first time, updating the firmware. The outlet was still blinking yellow and clicking every few seconds. On the display, after checking status it said Old.
Solve: either go to the display, or the IPaddress and click that particular device
Issue: What is with setting the outlets, I want them on
Solve:

EDITED:

you are spot on, so do I set this up with the advanced option?
 
The Neptune forum is a great place to get answers. Usually pretty responsive too.

Thank you, I will look there. I know as more time goes by I will learn the more advanced setup options. I is just a lot to learn in a quick period of time when first starting to setup the system. It is a great system, but very advanced, as I am pressed for time most of the time
 
you're welcome!
 
Need some help with another setting
Issue: Feed Modes
I would like to set up 5 different pump to turn off using the 4 feed modes. I change the intervals and nothing happens when I hit A. then I go in to advanced and nothing is happening. What is the OSC line? I do not need any delay at this point. here is a couple of screen shoots
Solved: The OSC Statement need to read OSC 000:00/005:00/000:00 Then ON and in you dashboard the pumps need to be set on automatic

Here is how the fix for feed cycles look. BRS has a pretty good video but why to fast, and they do not show you how on Fusion or desktop how to set up the feed modes

Ya and replace the 000 with the amount of time you want them off. So 3min would look like 003.
 

HOW MUCH DOES A FISH’S FEEDING REQUIREMENTS AFFECT YOUR STOCKING DECISIONS?

  • A lot! - I avoid fish that require frequent or specialized feeding

  • I usually learn about the demanding feeding schedule after buying the fish!
