Apex Skimmer Power Failure Help

[Hair Algae Wizard]

Folks,

I'd like to setup my skimmer so that it doesn't turn back on for 20 minutes after a power failure. My current setup is this:

Fallback ON
Set ON
If FeedA 005 Then OFF
Defer 020:00 Then ON

Can some please advise on what I need to add to have the skimmer come on 20 minutes after a power failure?

Thanks!

That defer statement will keep it off for 20 minutes That will also keep it off for 20 minutes after your feed cycle

Thanks, but that is for the Feed Cycle. Will it also automatically work in the event of a power failure?

Yes

It will turn back on when the power is restored for a brief moment until your Apex resets itself. At least I know mine does.

I'm trying to avoid having the skimmer overflow if there is a power failure. Will give this a go in a bit to test.

I have my defer set at 3 minutes, never had an issue.

Here's my code:
Fallback OFF
Set ON
If Output RetPump = OFF Then OFF
Defer 003:00 Then ON
