I need to stir my kalk top off every hour. Can anyone please post a program that will turn on for one minute every half hour? Or does anyone know how often it should be stirred? Thank you.

1 minutes on / 29 minutes off for total cycle time of 30 minutes:
OSC 001/029 ON/OFF Then STR OFF

Stir as recommended by the manufacturer. Or, stir as often as need to prevent the kalk from settling & clumping tightly. I used to stir mine every 6 hours, which was actually more than necessary.

Same here; 5 minutes stir, 4 hours rest:

OSC 005/240 ON/OFF Then STR ON

Is it "Then STR ON" or "Then STR OFF" ??? Thank you.

The ON or OFF value following the timer name determines what the initial condition of the stir motor or pump will be at power on. In my example STR will off and in Ken's example STR will be on when the controller is first powered on.

Otherwise it makes no difference.
