I have the GHL Doser 2.1

I'm trying to dose Alk between 10pm and 10am. How do I setup this in the dosing software? I'm comfortable in the web or local interface.

Manual dosing, you can set any time and amount you want. I think it maxes out at eight doses though. Auto can do 150 doses but it splits them evenly over 24 hours.

What he said. :)

If you go with the Auto Dose option, you can also specify at what time you want to actually start the dosing schedule for the day. In your case, if you want to start your first dose of the day at 10pm, simply look at ALWAYS DOSE AT THAT TIME and set it to 10PM.

I changed from auto to manual dosing and I don't see any new options appearing where I can set the specific dosing schedule.

When I set it to Auto and set the "Always dose at time" That's when the dose simply starts. When I play with the dosing per day and rate per dosing, it still automatically spreads the dosing amount throughout the day.

After selecting manual, open the Schedule box. I believe you can only have 8 manual dosing times. I wish you could have more, but maybe that's something for a firmware update? You can edit and/or delete each dose, but make sure you save before you finish.

After you choose manual dosing, select all days, then hit the save button at the top (looks like floppy icon). After you save, then open the schedule box again and you'll see one drop down menu on the left and one on the right (left is time, right amount). Choose your starting time, then put the amount you want to dose, then select the insert tab on the right. A second dropdown box should appear. You can add 8 manual dosing times. Hopefully this helps?
