Seasonal temp and lights with Jr question.

[lessthanlights]

I’m looking into Jr for my new system but has a few questions first.

1 Seasonal Temps- Assume winter temp is set for 75 degrees in winter and 81 in summer. In the winter I would obviously want the chiller and fans to kick in before the tank hit 81 but in the summer 81 degree is exactly what I want. Is there a code that would allow “x” to be the seasonal ideal and x+.5 degrees would turn chillers on and x-.5 turns the heater on?

2 Seasonal Sunrise Sunset- Basically the same question. I want the actinic to turn on and off when jr says by it’s seasonal table but daylights should turn on at x+1 hour and off at x-1 hour. Is this possible?

Thanks for the help

1. Yes
2. Yes

Here is a portion of my program that uses the seasonal temps and lighting.

If Sun 000/000 Then LT1 ON
If Sun 060/-060 Then LT2 ON
If Moon 000/000 Then MON ON
If Sun -030/060 Then EHM OFF
If Sun -030/060 Then SKM OFF
If Temp < RT+0.0 Then HT1 ON
If Temp > RT+1.0 Then HT1 OFF
If Temp < RT+0.0 Then HT2 ON
If Temp > RT+1.0 Then HT2 OFF
If Temp > RT+3.0 Then FAN ON
If Temp < RT+0.5 Then FAN OFF
If Temp > RT+3.5 Then LT2 OFF
Max Change 090 M Then LT2 OFF
If Timer LT1 = OFF Then LT2 OFF
If Temp > RT+4.0 Then LT1 OFF
Max Change 090 M Then LT1 OFF
If Temp > RT+4.5 Then ALM ON

I'm new to this programing so thanks for the help-

I assume that RT is the current seasonal Reef Temp?
What is 000/000 from "If Sun 000/000"
And what is 090 M from "Max Change 090 M"

Is this language online so I can download and study it before trying to write my own?
