    I would like my Apex to run a dosing pump for 30 mins twice a day,about every 12 hrs. What would the programming look like for that? Thanks for lookin

    Not an expert but this should work
    OSC 000:00/030:00/690:00
    then on
    Its basically OSC start time(midnight)/on length(30 mins) / off length(690 mins) On length+ off length = 720 mins or the 12 hours you are wanting and it keeps repeating.

    What blackx-runner suggested should work fine, if you wanted more control over times you could do something like this with the outlet config I used 8am and 8pm as times to be on but you could change the times no problem wouldn't even have to be 12 hours apart this way. Almost always multiple ways to do things with the Apex I bet others will point out a 3rd and maybe even 4th and 5th.

    Fallback OFF
    If Time 08:00 to 08:30 Then ON
    If Time 08:30 to 20:00 Then OFF
    If Time 20:00 to 20:30 Then ON
    If Time 20:30 to 08:00 Then OFF

    Yeah with only running it twice a day that would work good too. The dosing program I run is 4 minutes every hour, so the OSC function was a much simpler program.

    What is it that you are dosing with the pump? There may be a better program yet depending on that information. ??
