AC Program

[clp]

I don't see anything wrong with it; it should function as you would like.

hijack? no way, it is right on topic. i'm not that selfish.

A few posts up Curt states:

Suppose this is the program:

If pH < 8.5 Then Top ON
OSC 5/255 ON/OFF Then Mix ON
If Timer Mix = On, Then Top OFF
If pH > 8.6 Then Top OFF
Max Change 030M Then Top OFF

The Max Change statement has the highest priority so Top will stay off for 30 minutes even if the pH dropped below 8.5.

I have tried to program this into my Aqua III. I keep receiving an error which is:

If Timer MIX = ON, Then Top OFF
Expected ON or OFF

Any suggestions on what I am doing wrong?

Thanks in advance,
Jeff

Al,
I also see your using alot of code for the lighting.
I have mine based on the internal seasonal chart and I can tweak how much before or after each light goes on. Here is my lighting scheme:
If Moon 000/000 Then MON ON
If Sun 000/025 Then T5B ON
If Sun 030/-120 Then 14K ON

It will also rotate with the seasons for a natural effect. You might already know this but I had to post

I am not possitive but I would try to add the natural state for the
TOP
If Time > 00:00, then Top ON or If Time > 00:00, then Top OFF

Thanks ppht!

thanks, i am aware of it and it is a cool feature, but i prefer to have the lights on at certain times (when i'm home) which doesnt fluctuate with the sun times.

this all reminds me that i should probably put up my latest program (has been adjusted a bit since the last one posted)

Ahh Okay I thought you might have a reason...

LtL = 20 K MH (400W) / A01
VHO = 2x60" VHO Actinic (280W) / A02
Mlt = 4xMoONlights / A03
Fan = Sump Fan / A04
LtC = 20 K MH (400W) / A05
Rfg = Refugium/Sump light (96W) / A06
Top = Top-off via KalkReactor / A07
Mix = Mixing pump for KalkReactor / A08
LtR = 20 K MH (400W) / A09
LtF = Fans in light fixture / A10
Htr = Heater (300W) / A11
Alm = Alarm Module / A13

If Time > 19:00 Then VHO ON
If Time > 22:00 Then LtR ON
If Time > 22:15 Then LtC ON
If Time > 22:30 Then LtL ON

If Tmr VHO = ON Then LtF ON
If Tmr VHO = OFF Then LtF OFF
If Tmr VHO = ON Then Mlt OFF
If Tmr VHO = OFF Then Mlt ON

If Temp < 81.0 Then Htr ON
If Temp > 81.0 Then Htr OFF
If Temp > 81.1 Then Fan ON
If Temp < 81.1 Then Fan OFF
If Temp > 82.0 Then LtR OFF
Max Change 030 M Then LtR OFF
If Temp > 82.5 Then LtC OFF
Max Change 030 M Then LtC OFF
If Temp > 83.0 Then LtL OFF
Max Change 030 M Then LtL OFF
If Temp < 65 Then Htr OFF

If pH < 8.3 Then Top ON
OSC 15/165 ON/OFF Then Mix ON
If Tmr Mix = ON then TOP Off
If pH > 8.4 Then Top OFF

If Time > 00:00 Then Alm OFF
If Temp > 84 Then Alm ON
If Temp < 78 Then Alm ON
If pH > 8.6 Then Alm ON
If pH < 7.9 Then Alm ON
Max Change 015 Then Alm OFF

If Feed cycle Then Top OFF
If Feed cycle Then Mix OFF
If Feed cycle Then Alm OFF
If Feed cycle Then Fan OFF
If Feed cycle Then Rfg ON
