I just bought an EB8 that will be powered from my UPS backup supply. I would like to run my Eheim return pump from an outlet on this EB8. Normally the pump will run continuously. During a power outage I would like it to run for 5 minutes every half hour just to turn over the water in my sump and fuge. I can't run it continuously since it will discharge the UPS too quickly. I also have two Evo Powerheads in the tank that run on the UPS continuously.
I also want to turn the return pump off if my Waterbug detects water on the floor regardless of power status. The Waterbug is on the switch 3 input.
Please take a look at this code and let me know if you think this will work. If, not please suggest mods.
Note that the EB8_3 is a different Eb8 that will be run from the regular wall outlet and not the UPS.
Thanks
Fallback ON
OSC 025:00/005:00/000:00 Then ON
If Power EB8_3 On 000 Then ON
If Switch3 CLOSED Then OFF
