Hi all,

I have a couple DOS units set up and am dosing Triton. I am trying to program so a pump in my fuge runs when the DOS runs and then runs for an additional 2 mins. The purpose is to insure that the Triton additives get mixed in with the aquarium water well and doesn't set on Chaeto or anything.

Program looks like:

Fallback OFF
Set OFF
If Output DOS_1_CA = ON Then ON
If Output DOS_1_MG = ON Then ON
If Output DOS_2_ALK_1 = ON Then ON
If Output DOS_2_ALK_2 = ON Then ON
Defer 002:01 Then OFF
However, the pump is running continuously. I'm assuming that looking at the DOS as an output and looking for it being ON isn't the right approach. Does anybody have an idea of how to make this work?

Thanks!

Gerald

I assume your DOS is only on during a certain period everyday so why don’t you set the pump to run at the same time?
