Socket control - 1min pulse

[Tony@cambs]

Hi folks,

I hope you can tell me this is possible. I want to pulse a pump on for a min and off for a min, which will be run from an 4way power bar.

Can I do it? any tips to do so.

Also anyone see a problem running an Eheim 1260 like this?

Thanks

Tony

Just found a way

I have set the socket to a current pump, and then used the surge mode in the pumps section under group2.

I would prefer not to use the current pump group2 if anyone has other ideas?

Ta,

I would think thiswould put quite a bit of wear on the relays.

1 min on / 1 off = 30 times an hr

720 times a day
5040 times a week
262080 times a year

Pluss the click clack would get annoying

This is all presuming the 4 way uses relays like the 6 way does

Thanks for the reply. No problem with noise, it is in another room

Can anyone confirm the effect on the plugbar?
