I was wondering if there's any way to adjust pump speed through the If Output command -or- if there's another way to gradually ramp down or ramp up return pump speed. I have a virtual outlet (vFeed) setup to work with my Neptune AFS and when the virtual outlet is triggered ON (3x daily) instead of just turning the pump OFF I'd like to set a slower pump speed - the same way I can do for the FeedA-D modes. It's a Sicce SDC 9.0 that's configured via IOTA, so Apex is able to control it.
The return pump normally runs @45%, so I just have it set to throttle down to @5% whenever Feed Modes A-C are triggered (Feed Mode D is for maintenance).
Sicce SDC 9.0
Fallback ON
Set ON
If FeedA 000 Then 5
If FeedB 000 Then 5
If FeedC 000 Then 5
If FeedD 000 Then OFF
Defer 001:00 Then ON
If Output vFeed = ON Then OFF « If I assign a value here such as "5" it doesn't do anything
Defer 004:00 Then ON
vFeed
Set OFF
If Time 08:00 to 08:02 Then ON
If Time 12:00 to 12:02 Then ON
If Time 18:00 to 18:02 Then ON
Defer 002:00 Then OFF
