I plan to purchase DOS pump for my daily Alk and Ca dosing, 200mL of each. How do I alternate the DOS to pump each every 2 hrs such as 8am Ca, 10 am Alk(soda ash) and so on?

Thanks
 
I'm assuming you have an Apex.....set the Apex to control each pump.

You will be able to program through apex, very simple process

Thanks, yes, I will be using Apex to control. From the example above, I see both Ca and Alk is set from 00:00 to 23:59. So the DOS will know not to dose both pump at the same time? Sorry, new to Apex and DOS

Yes it doses them separately! It’s very intuitive. But you will need to use the task for DOS 2 part not DOS water change When setting it up.
