OSC Command

[BillyBee]

Guys/gals,

I need little help.

I want to run a dosing pump for 60 minutes over a 24 hour period. Not all at once but spread out over the 24 hours period.

What would be the best way to do it with the Apex? I assume the OSC command??

The way I see it, you have two options. You can run the OSC command on a 60 minute cycle (run 2.5 minutes per hour) to start and stop on the hour or you could have it run on a 24 minute cycle. Below are the top options that I would consider...but I think I would go with the 24 minute cycle. Smaller doses, more spread out.

24 minute cycle:
OSC 023:00/001:00/000:00 Then ON

60 minute cycle:
OSC 057:30/002:30/000:00 Then ON

Hope that helps.

If the 2:30 runtime is too much you can divide down almost as low as you want; a few seconds each minute for example; you just need to calculate the times.
