Can you initiate a feed cycle on the controller itself? Do you have the feed interval set to the correct value in the setup->timer setup menu?

Curt,

I have only tried from the Aquanotes Lite program, but the Feed Cycle seems to initialize and the count down begins, but it doesn't seem to shut down the appropiate equipment. Is there something else I am missing? Is my program correct?

I don't see anything wrong with the program. Try the feed cycle on the controller itself.

Thanks for the help everything works fine activating it through the controller directly. I did notice on thing however. After it complete the first countdown the controller automatically went back into feed mode and started the countdown all over again. I did modify the FEED interval down to 15 minutes.

It sounds like the button was held down too long, and it started to auto repeat. That caused the feed cycle to be activated twice.
