Light Timer - ON_OFF then Back ON

[lh2o]

Hi

Greetings ,

I woul like to have port 2 (bellowin red ) (go ON at 7 :00 then OFF at 7:01and then back ON until 19:00 when it goes OFF

it sounds weird but it's to corect a strange issues I have with my Euroaquatic LED T5... they do not start up when the ports goes ON but if I put it OFF the back ON again they start up fine

below is what I have generated from teh Wizard

thanks


void loop()
{
ReefAngel.Relay.DelayedOn( Port3,5 );
ReefAngel.StandardLights( Port4,16,0,10,0 );
ReefAngel.StandardHeater( Port5,775,786 );
ReefAngel.StandardHeater( Port6,775,786 );
ReefAngel.StandardLights( Box1_Port1,8,0,18,0 );
ReefAngel.StandardLights( Box1_Port2,7,0,19,0 );
ReefAngel.StandardLights( Box1_Port3,10,30,15,30 );
ReefAngel.StandardLights( Box1_Port4,10,30,15,30 );

Try this:

Code: Select all

if (hour()==7 && minute()==1) ReefAngel.Relay.Off(Box1_Port2);

thanks Roberto , It's doing what I wanted wich is great but not solving the issue I have with the T5 bulbs not lighting
when I use the UAPP and manualy togle the port to OFF then Auto the T5 go on ...woudl there be another way to try coding this

thanks

[rimai]

I didn't get it what you are saying about the Uapp.
Can you rephrase please?

[lh2o]

when this port is set ON by the timer (at 7:00) the light flicker but do not stay ON, witwhat you suegested I paste they fliker again about 1 min later but do not stay on.

If I use the Universal App on my I phone and set the port to Off the Auto the lights start up.

thsi is not an issue with this relay or the controler... the issue is linked to the E5 led tT5 because when I put regular T5 I have no problems

what I am looking for in terms of code is somthing that would mimic what I am doing in the U app

hope thsi makes sens

thanks

So, what do you need?
A shorter off interval?
Right now it stays for a whole minute.
Maybe you just need a few seconds?

[lh2o]

yes I think that could work ! just a couple second Off like 1 or 2 would be great

thank you

[rimai]

Just add seconds then.

Code: Select all

if (hour()==7 && minute()==1 && second() <=2) ReefAngel.Relay.Off(Box1_Port2);
