Default Profilux switching cycles per day?

I have a question regarding the clock timer functionality. I would like to connect two dosing pumps for adding a two part calcium additive. How many switching cycles per day does the Profilux allow? I beleive I read four but I would like to verifiy. It would be nice to be able to have 24 switching cycles per day especially when it comes to using dosing pumps.

i'm not sure myself but in the menu when it asks how many cycles per day just try and increase it to as many as it will allow, and then you'll know.

Hi,

up to 8 cycles per day.
In firmware 3.00, going to be released soon, will be new features regarding dosing and controlling.

i have had the problem with the lighting not shuttting off three times now on 3 different sockets, 3 different lights. 2 times with the halides each one is plugged into different sockets and on seperate powerbars and 1 time with my actinics (2 54w T5's) also on a different socket. the only way that i can get them to turn off is to reassign the outlet to be permanent and change it back to a clock timer. tapping on the powerbar did not switch it off.

One problem solved and just getting the next one...

The most important question is:
Is the LED on when the socket has power?

If yes: The hardware (powerbar) is OK and is just doing what it is told to do by ProfiLux.
->then there may be a mistake in your settings. In this case please
give me the complete settings of your timer (mode, count of times, the times, ...).

If no: The powerbar does not what ProfiLux wants.
