![]() There are likely different ways to do this...hmmm..
The first thing that comes to mind is that you will have to synchronize the feed timer with the AQT, since the AQT isn't going to be controlling the feed timer. That can be done, but it is likely to slowly drift out of synch over time. It might be easier to just have the AQT control the feed time as well. If you have a plug available set the feeder to feed when powered and let AQT do it. The next thing to consider is that you are probably only feeding during the daytime. That affects your timers. I would do this with wave effect timers. For example: Program 1: Active 7 days per week Active 10PM - Noon (night) Return pump On Program 2: Active 7 days per week Active Noon -10PM (lights on... 3 feeding interruptions at 3PM, 6PM and 9PM) Return pump On for 2hr, 52 minutes Return pump Pause for 8 minutes That should get you started anyway. All of my AQT programming experience is done with the computer interface. I'm not much help with programming the AQT using only the AQT itself because I've never done it that way.
