Apex turns off my return pump

[shafiq_hossain]

Finally got around to plugging equipment to my EB8. I plugged the Return to OUtlet #2. Ran for a while then suddenly stopped. Kicked back in about 5 minutes later. Ran for about maybe 10 minutes and stopped again but wouldn't start back up. If I manually turn it on from the status page, it works but as soon as I switch it back to Auto, it stops again. I searched for some delivered coding elsewhere instructing Outlet #2 to turn off, but couldn't find any. I have not added any coding anywhere else myself. Any ideas what could be stopping it?

Post the code you have for that outlet

In the course of my troubleshooting, I went as far as making the code as simple as what is listed below (I selected Advanced for Control Type):

Fallback ON

Here is mine.

Fallback ON
Set ON
If FeedA 020 Then OFF
If FeedB 000 Then OFF
If Power EB8_3 Off 005 Then OFF

Does that help any?
Outlet 1 for me.

All Apex outlets are not rated the same. My return pump is on Outlet 7. Yes post code.

The set on will keep that outlet in the on state.
Fallback is for loss of conection with the base unit.

Okay, I tested this out again yesterday with the same behavior. The following are the details. Plugged lamp into outlet #2. I am testing with a lamp instead of plugging in the actual return pump. In any case, last night it was on but according to the xml log, the list went off at 2:55, which I believe is AM. The outlet is configured as follows:

Control Type : Pump
Fallback : Off
Initial off time: 005:00
On time : 005:00
Off time : 005:00
Feed timer : A
Feed timer delay: 005

What I can't seem to figure out is what is causing it to turn off. I changed the Control type to Advanced and the following code was visible:

Fallback OFF
OSC 005:00/005:00/005:00 Then ON
If FeedA 005 Then OFF

Bear in mind that there was no loss to EB8 as far as I know.

Thanks....

Edit: Additional info. Looking through the log file and it seems it's staying on 5 minutes each time. After 5 minutes, it turns off for 10 minutes then turns back on after 5 minutes. It goes on based on the same pattern.

OSC is oscillating, you have it on wave maker mode...

Well, that makes sense. So, I switched Control Type from Pump to Advanced and left the following code:

Fallback ON
If FeedA 005 Then OFF

Result: Outlet is not turning on.

I then removed the second line (FeedA).
Result: Outlet is not turning on.

Edit: Okay, I figured it out. I was missing the SET statement. Now, I'm going to search for the code to email me if the outlet ever loses power.
