apex dosing ?

[e46er]

i want my cal and alk to run for 6:32 each altenating on the hour.
so alk at 12/2/4/6 ect and cal at 1/3/5/7 ect.

heres my program
cal
Fallback OFF
OSC 060:00/006:32/113:28 Then ON

alk
Fallback OFF
OSC 000:00/006:32/113:28 Then ON


problem is according to logs the cal is running at 1/4/7/10/1/4/7
and alk runs what I want at 12/2/4/6/8/10/12/2/4/8/8/10

isnt the OSC the offset from the starting point basically?


for calcium would I go something like
Fallback OFF
OSC 00:00/006:32/113:28 Then ON
if time 12:00 to 01:00 then off

yep so that doesnt work.
cal code
Fallback OFF
OSC 060:00/006:32/113:28 Then ON


cal runs 1/4/7/10/1/4/
alk ran properly 12/2/4/6/8/ect
alk code
Fallback OFF
OSC 000:00/006:27/113:33 Then ON
If Time 23:00 to 00:59 Then OFF


why does calcium run every 3 hours?

should it be
Fallback OFF
OSC 060:00/006:32/53:28 Then ON
delay power 60 min run 6 off 53 delay power 60 min?

I'm not an Apex expert, but to me your sum total of time in your initial Ca calculation is 180 min or 3 hrs. I think your last statement (OSC 060:00/006:32/53:28 Then ON) would work for every 2 hours

Ok thanks.
I set the code for that last night and turned the doser off but the log will tell me what it does.
I originally thought the osc was just a single delay but from my reading it's a delay when the outlet gets power so it was power on wait an hour dose 6 min off for 113 minutes then power back on then 1 hr delay.
Thanks!

this works, now they alternate on the hour. thanks!

Wow , sound a bit hard to figure it out, I just got one last week and I don't know if wanna switch the vertex libra I'm currently using seems way easier to set up

That code generator that davej put up is pretty cool, hadn't seen that before. The only reason it didn't work for e46er was the one hour offset. The generator doesn't allow for that long of one. And now with Fusion, I'd say you can do most of what any beginner to average reefer wants to do totally without knowing the coding.

Here is my dosing schedule using the generator


ALK

Fallback OFF
OSC 000:00/000:35/059:25 Then ON
If pH > 8.35 Then OFF


Calcium

Fallback OFF
OSC 030:00/000:35/029:25 Then ON


Magnesium

Fallback OFF
OSC 015:00/000:45/044:15 Then ON

It ends up looking like this
