APEX reseting program?

I have run into a strange problem. I am trying to setup my APEX and I am having a difficult time. For example, I have programmed the profiles for my WXM and I have programmed a few outlets for my lights, but after I get everything programmed, the next day my outlet programming either disapears of changes.

An example of the change.

If I put in my WXM program of
Fallback Emergenc
Set TidalSwl
If Time 09:00 To 12:00 Lagoon
If Time 12:01 To 16:00 TidaSwl
If Time 16:01 To 17:00 Nutrient
If Time 17:01 To 19:00 ReefCrst
If Time 19:01 To 21:00 Lagoon
If Time 21:01 To 08:59 Night


When I realized my pumps are switching and I check it again it will say something like
Fallback OFF
Set OFF
If Time 09:00 To 12:00 Then OFF
If Time 12:01 To 16:00 OFF
If Time 16:01 To 17:00 OFF
If Time 17:01 To 19:00 OFF
If Time 19:01 To 21:00 OFF
If Time 21:01 To 08:59 OFF

Also I have noticed the outlets make duplicates for some reason as well.
Any Ideas?

What firmware version? You need to have v4.03 for the WXM. You can get the latest here: http://www.neptunesys.com/index.php?...d=49&Itemid=48

If that's the actual code you're entering, then it's wrong. The Apex will accept it but what it will return will have 'then' inserted which I don't see in what you say the Apex has changed it to.

Also, if you reference an invalid profile (remember this is case sensitive) the program interperter will give you an error BUT if you exit out of the outlet page without correcting it, it will replace that invalid profile name with "ON".

It looks to me like there's something going on with your profiles and programming. I'd go back and very carefully double check spelling, upper case vs. lower case, etc. Reeftronics has a good utility to list your program and profile statements and make it easy to copy/paste them here all at once. Do that and maybe there's something else someone can see that's happening.
