Curt,
I have rigged two float switches to the switch input with the cable y'all sent. Working great. I have set a program -
If switch1=closed then LT4 off (metal halides). This makes sure that if my pump or sump fails, my lights don't cook the tank.
However, there are instances where I might get a switch closing, and not want to drop off the halides right away. I want to put in about a 5 minute delay after the switch closes, before I turn off the halides. If the switch reopens, then the halides stay on.
I think I need a
MAX CHANGE 5M then LT4 OFF
after the IF SWITCH1= statement. However, since I don't program by computer, I'm not sure how to get it in the right place.
What's the right statement, and how do I get it in there? Thanks!
