Hi
Needed help with setting these programs for Apex.Would like my halides to turn off at temp at 83 come back on around 82 if tank cools during lighting times,Also wait 30 minutes after a power failure and come back on.my program seems to not work.this is what i have.

Metal_Halide-(3-4)

Fallback OFF
Set OFF
If Time 12:00 to 20:00 Then ON
If Temp > 83.0 Then OFF
If Power Apex Off 001 Then OFF
Min Time 030:00 Then OFF

Also my hood fans, I Would like them to run for 12 hrs 10AM-10PM during my lighting period, but stay or come on if temp 82.5 or be off if temp if temp is 80
So far i have this
Hood-Fan_5-(3-5)
Fallback ON
If Time 10:00 to 22:00 Then ON

Kinda lost on these programs found flashing routers and full web set up a lot easier. :)
Only other problem i have at this point, is when i try a power failure i seem to lose my web pages sometimes all, sometimes just a few i,m running firmware
"4.03_6A10" so not sure what the problem is.Would battery back up solve this?

For lights you want them off if its too hot but you dont just want them to come back on right away. If you do your halides may be to hot to turn back on. Here is my light code.

Fallback OFF
Set OFF
If Time 15:00 to 21:00 Then ON
If Temp > 81.0 Then OFF
Min Time 015:00 Then OFF
If Power Apex Off 010 Then OFF


My fan code looks like this:

Fallback OFF
Set ON
If Outlet MH1 = ON Then OFF
If Temp > 79.1 Then OFF
If Temp < 78.8 Then ON

This outlet is on a old DC8 and it works backwards. So off = on and on = off.

Basically is my lights are on the fan is on unless the temp is under 78.8. Or if the temp is above 79.1 its on whether the lights are on or not.

Thanks,looks like just what i needed.
Have you had any Problems with the new firmware and power outage?I've had to reflash the webpages twice now.I'm sure when i test out the MH program tommorow that will make a 3rd time.
