APEX Code Needed for Dosing Alk

[terri_ann]

Just got my BRS 1.1ml Dosing Pump set up and calibrated. This is my first experience programming my Apex to dose ALK. I need to dose 122.7ml Alk a day but only want to dose it when my lights are OFF (for pH reasons). My lighting is ON from 11:00(AM) to 22:00 (10PM) so I'm wanting to dose from 22:00 to 11:00.

Can someone please supply the Apex code that I need to program? I'm not good with programming my Apex. :sad2:

Fallback OFF
Set ?
OSC ?????????
If ???????????

Thanks for helping!!:thumbsup:

This is my dosing set up on my Apex. However it doses every hour for 1 minute. I would like to see the program for when the lights are off.

Fallback OFF
OSC 000:00/001:00/059:00 Then ON

Thanks for responding :0) Here's my programming for my lights:

Fallback ON
Set OFF
If Time 11:00 to 22:00 Then ON
If 135Temp > 81.0 Then OFF
If 135Temp < 76.0 Then ON

Is this correct? :
Fallback Off
Set Off
OSC 000:00/008:00/052:00
If Time 11:00 to 22:00 Then OFF

Alk

Fallback OFF
OSC 030:00/001:00/029:00 Then ON
If Outlet Lights_1 = ON Then OFF
If Outlet Lights_2 = ON Then OFF
If pH > 08.35 Then OFF

Cal
Fallback OFF
OSC 000:00/001:00/059:00 Then ON
If Outlet Lights_1 = ON Then OFF
If Outlet Lights_2 = ON Then OFF
If pH > 08.35 Then OFF

Doses Cal on the hour and alk 30 minutes later while the lights are off

Terri, OregonReefer,

Besides PH reasons, are there any other reasons for not dosing ALK and CAL, when the lights are on?
