Hi Reefers,

I have a DOS pump that I use for push button water change (D) whenever required.

I am dosing Triton in my tank and have to remove x amount of water every day to balance the salinity with the additives being dosed.

Can I program the same DOS pump to remove x amount of water 3-4 times a week not to interfere with when I am doing water change? (usually Saturday!)

Can't seem to wrap my head around the programming.

Cheers,
 
Current configuration for push button water change (50 l. / 24 hrs)

Yes, you can just have it programmed to do your AWCs throughout the week (you specify times and days). Saturdays you can use it for manual like you have been doing. I have my DOS do AWCs Monday through Thursday and I do my manual change on Friday. It has been a while since I set it up but I believe I just used one of the built in tasks to do the programming.
