Can I have a port turn on & then back on & off again later?

Post by DavidinGA »

I have mh as my main lights and want to have my supplemental T5's run before the MH for a while and then come back on again an hour after the mh turn off; how would I do that?

Would this code work? I simply listed Port2 twice, does that work?

Code: Select all

{
    ReefAngel.StandardHeater( Port1,795,800 );  ////2 Heaters
    ReefAngel.StandardLights( Port2,14,0,17,0 ); ////T5 Lights 2pm to 5pm
    ReefAngel.StandardLights( Port2,23,0,24,0 ); ////T5 Lights 11pm to 12am
    ReefAngel.StandardLights( Port3,24,0,15,0 );   ////scrubber lights 12am-3pm  15hrs on 9off
    
    ReefAngel.StandardLights( Port5,17,0,23,0 ); ////Metal Halide 5pm to 11pm
    ReefAngel.DosingPumpRepeat( Port6,0,660,10 ); /////mag 720min = 11hrs  15ml day
    ReefAngel.DosingPumpRepeat( Port7,0,360,26 );  /////alk 360min = 6hrs  78ml day
    ReefAngel.DosingPumpRepeat( Port8,0,300,21 );  ////cal 300min = 5hrs   78.75ml day 3cups per gal
    ReefAngel.DCPump.UseMemory = false;
    ReefAngel.DCPump.SetMode( LongPulse,60,10 );
    ReefAngel.DCPump.DaylightChannel = Sync;
    ReefAngel.DCPump.ActinicChannel = AntiSync;
    ////// Place your custom code below here
    if (hour()<8)
{

I'm not sure if doing it twice will work or not. I don't think it will.

Something like this should. I'm just not sure about how midnight is handled. I think it just rolls over to 0.

Code: Select all

    if ((hour()>=14 && hour()<17) || (hour()>=23)) ReefAngel.Relay.On(Port4);

Yep that should do it.

Putting the command twice for the same port will just end up doing the one that is last.

Actually, lets change it to this just to be thorough:

Code: Select all

if ((hour()>=14 && hour()<17) || (hour()>=23)) ReefAngel.Relay.On(Port4);
    else ReefAngel.Relay.Off(Port4);

Actually you'd need that for sure. Good catch Colin!

It didn't work. It turned on at 2pm like it should but it was supposed to turn off at 5pm (run 2pm-5pm) but it stayed on...



***Edit...the "else" addition made it work.

Thanks
