Hey guys!!

Needing some help with programming my Neptune kalkwasser stuff, I’ve got a pump and stirrer.

Wanting the stirrer to stir for 15seconds every 20minutes and the pump to go off 17minutes after the stirrer went off for 5seconds and then the whole 20minute cycle repeats.

I tried doing this with a virtual outlet but can’t figure out how to . I really appreciate the help!

For the stirrer outlet:

Fallback OFF
OSC 000:00/000:15/019:45 Then ON
If pH > 8.30 Then OFF

CODE EXPLAINED: at midnight (000:00) this code will begin the cycle of 15 seconds on and 19:45 off. Basically running for 15 seconds every 20 minutes.

For the pump outlet:

Fallback OFF
OSC 017:15/000:05/019:55 Then ON
If pH > 8.30 Then OFF

CODE EXPLAINED: this cycle begins 17 minutes 15 seconds after the stirrer. It will run for 5 seconds and cycle every 20 minutes, 17m 15s offset from the stirrer.

The added line for pH is to safeguard your tank from over dosing based on pH. Set it to whatever value you want or remove it altogether if you don't need it.
