Mh delay with AC Jr

[MattG]

I have my AC jr set to turn off my halide if the temperature reaches a certain point. The problem with the way i have it set up is that once the temperature drops a little the mh comes back on for 5 mins and then the temp increases slightly and shuts off again. this repeats throughout the day.

Is there a way to have the mh turn off once the temp reaches a high point and then have the mh delayed for a certain amount of time say 1 hour before it can turn back on.

thanks for any help

Yes, you can configure the controller to do this. Here is a sample:

If Time > 8:00 Then LT1 ON
If Time > 20:00 Then LT1 OFF
If Temp > 83.0 Then LT1 OFF
Max Change 060 M Then LT1 OFF

The max change keeps the light off for at least 60 minutes before it is allowed to turn back on.
