auto feed code not working.

Posted: Mon Mar 20, 2017 4:31 pm
by GugsJr
I'm sure I have a setting off some where in here but I can't figure it out.

I thought I had it set to go into feed mode at 5pm and then cycle port 6.
After feed mode to go in to Nutrient Transport Mode for 2.5 hours.

Looking at the relay graph it doesn't seem like it went into feed mode.


Any help would be appreciated

Try changing this line:

Code: Select all

if ((now()%SECS_PER_DAY==61200)) //if it is 5 pm
to something like this.

Code: Select all

if (hour()==17 && minute()==0 && second() <= 2)

Thank you

That worked great. Now a new problem arose.

I also feed the fish Mysis shrimp at 9pm. Is there a way to get port 6 to stay off at 9pm?

Would this work?

I just change the code from between 60 secs and 61 secs passed to turn on. To if it's a set time?

Code: Select all

//AutoFeeder
static unsigned long autofeeding = 0;

if (hour()==17 && minute()==0 && second() <= 2)//if it is 5 pm
{
ReefAngel.FeedingModeStart(); //START FEEDING MODE
}

if (ReefAngel.DisplayedMenu==FEEDING_MODE)
{
if ( autofeeding == 0 ) {
autofeeding = now(); //set the time of the start of feeding to variable feeding
}

iif (hour()==17 && minute()==1 && second() <= 1)//if it is 5:01.01 pm
{
ReefAngel.Relay.On(Feeder); //TURN FEEDER RELAY ON
}
else
{
ReefAngel.Relay.Off(Feeder); //TURN FEEDER RELAY OFF
}
} else {
if ( autofeeding > 0 ) {
autofeeding = 0;
}
}
