Kajunk2k,

Yes you can have different schedules for different days.

I have different weekday and weekend schedules. I am happy to share the code.

I also have code so that when the lights are off you can push a button and it will turn the lights on for a set number of minutes.

I'm all about easy software updates. I haven't updated the firmware of my apex because its such an inconvenience.
Yep same here

It's all the options/settings you access through the web server. The stuff fusion doesn't have. Like when you setup text notifications, you gotta do it it through the web server. Or when you rename outlets, etc.
You should be able to setup notifications and rename outlets on fusion. I do it all the time.

Here's what I use for my fan in my sump. My goal is to have it turn on M - F from 12 - 1 to help move the air within my sump and also to turn on to help cool the tank if the temp is greater than 80.5

Fallback OFF
Set OFF
If Time 12:00 to 13:00 Then ON
If DoW S-----S Then OFF
If Temp > 80.5 Then ON
Min Time 015:00 Then ON

I'm pretty sure it would look like this

Fallback OFF
Set OFF
If Time 12:00 to 13:00 Then ON
If DoW S-----S Then OFF
If Time 13:00 to 14:00 Then ON
If DoW -MTWTF- Then OFF

From my understanding, the Apex goes through each line and determines if it should be on or off. That is why you're able to have 2 different time schedules. maybe [MENTION=824]o2manyfish[/MENTION] can verify.

Sweet! I didn't know you could do multiple like that. Thanks! I'm going to play around with it and change my lighting times on the weekends

Here is my code -- Same thing


Fallback OFF
Set OFF
If Time 10:02 to 03:12 Then ON
If DoW -MTWTF- Then OFF
If Time 14:15 to 03:12 Then ON
If TkTemp > 82.5 Then OFF
Min Time 001:00 Then OFF


However, if you are running LED's and you have your lighting schedule programmed then on the weekends when the lights come one early your profile doesn't work. So I created a different color profile and run it on the weekends so that the lights come on before the regular cycle runs.

You are paying for the R&D that went into it plus their profit, building, marketing, etc......
