Virtual Outlet Code Issue?

I'm attempting to program 2 virtual outlets for tank maintenance purposes. The first is named "SkimMaint" and the second is "WaterCange". I was able to get the WaterChange outlet to function properly but nothing happens when I turn ON the SkimMaint outlet.

I'm trying to tell the skimmer to turn off during either the SkimMaint or WaterChange cycle.


Skimmer Outlet

Fallback ON
Set ON
If Outlet SkimMaint = ON Then OFF
If Outlet WaterChange = ON Then OFF
If Outlet WaterChange = OFF Then ON
Defer 003:00 Then ON

Again, for some reason only the WaterChange command works...? Nothing happens when I manually turn the SkimMaint outlet ON.

This line is your problem. It is causing the SkimMaint line to be ignored. You do not need this line anyway, since the default state of your Skimmer outlet is ON.

Take it out, and you should be good to go.
