Hi,
Yes, it is possible. Use this code:
If Time > 00:00 Then SKM ON
If Power 005 Then SKM OFF

What part are you having problems with? Is there something specific? I'm not up north but maybe with some clarification and a few member's comments we can get it figured out for you

Well Im trying to set two of the plugs up for "wave" action.
One on one off and back and forth like that.
And how dose everyone set up there temp par
I was thinking
HTR on @77 off @ 78
Fan on @81 off @ 80
so that is my idea and think I can figure that out
the book reads like, well I dont understand it LOL

I'm not familiar with the random wave action, but I'm sure there are others that use it. Chk4tx?
For the fan/heater, you set them something like:
If temp >81 then col on
if temp <80 then col off
if temp <78 then htr on
if temp >79 then htr off

btw if you use halides you might want to add a line for potential power outages.
if pwr 010 then 'Lit 1' on

That command line allows the halides to cool off before restarting in case it is a short power outage. Since the halides won't fire if hot, it gives them time to cool down. I don't see why you wouldn't be able to use it similarly for your skimmer if you want that delay.

Can anyone help me with feed modes, and skimmer on with power out delay
I want, feedA = 5 min skimmer off
feedB = 10min Skimmer ans RTP off
I only want it to go into feed mode when I select it manualy.
IF pwr 010 then SKM ON
This is so skimmer wont over flow when sump is full.

This will not work on skimmer due to Lights being on a timmer setup and the skimmer ia 000 always on, so the time 010 wont help skimmer and if on timmer it wound not do feed mode.
At least thats what I have come to find out, If anyone knows diff PLEASE let me know.
I did figure out feed mode
