i know i should know this and i have some semi advanced apex commands but what is the simplest way to tourn a pump on at 8pm and off at 8:20 pm?

i have some commands and turns on but does not turn the pump off

thanks for the help...
 
You have this on an outlet that the pump is plugged into?
 
If you have that exact code, with the set off command, and the outlet is in Auto, then put a ticket into Neptune.

This is 2 minutes.
With the Apex, the time includes both numbers.
So it will be active from the start of 20:24, through the end of 20:25.

To get one minute there are a couple of ways.

First is to use the OSC command, but this will not work for 1 activation per day at the time you want.

The other is to create a virtual output.

[PumpOn1Min]
Set OFF
If Time 20:24 to 20:25 Then ON
Defer 000:59 Then ON

This output will only be ON at 20:25.

Then use this virtual outlet to turn the pump on.

If Output PumpOn1Min = ON Then ON
