T,

First things first....go here:

http://reeftech.webs.com/

and download the Apex New Users Manual. Then read it about five times.
Believe me, the Apex is not a plug and play device. Coding/Programming is complicated to begin with.....until you learn it. Read the manual as Alan has done a GREAT job of breaking down the programming to laymans terms. Much easier to understand than the manual that comes with the unit.

If Time 12:00 to 14:00 Then Blueup

I have read it several times and I get more and more confused

This worked perfect, Thanks so much. Someone should open a business programming these things. They could get rich!
