I have two powerheads in my tank, one at each end of the tank. The powerhead timer names are:

PH1 (PowerHead 1) - A01
PH2 (PowerHead 2) - A02

I want to create an alternating wave current in the tank. Currently the code I have is:

OSC 30/30 ON/OFF THEN PH1 ON
OSC 30/30 ON/OFF THEN PH2 OFF


This code provides the alternating current, but there is always one powerhead off. Is there away to modify the code so that the on/off times overlap so that Powerhead 1 is on then Powerhead2 comes on, then after say 5 min of both powerheads being on, Powerhead 1 goes off?

Something like this will work:

OSC 35/25 ON/OFF THEN PH1 ON
OSC 35/25 ON/OFF THEN PH2 OFF
