The goal is to control a switched socket by both a timer function and a feed pause (the switched socket controls an eheim feeder).

I setup a timer as below and if I set the socket to timer 1 it works as expected.

I then created a programmable logic that I hoped would make the feeder 2 routine pulse the socket for 1 second (setting the socket to programmable logic 2 did not have the desired effect)

The idea was I could use another programmable logic to OR the timer or Programmable logic 2, then set the socket to this programmable logic.

Any ideas where I went wrong?
 
Is the plan then to have the timer turn on or off the outlet?

The reason I ask is if it is that you have the timer set to turn off at certain times also then you would do an and and invert the timer.

So would be filter 3 and invert timer 2 on the program logic.
