is it possible to have the apex turn on an output (powerhead) after the DOS doses?

The following does not work.

Fallback OFF
If Output dosealkalini = ON Then ON
Defer 3 then off

When using the DOS with the graphical scheduler and you have the slider set to AUTO, the DOS will always report "ON" in the programming even when the motors are not turning. The only way to accurately use "If Output DOSname = ON" is if you skip the graphical scheduler and instead use DOS Profiles and create the programming yourself. This is explained in the DOS User Guide.
