i have configured my P3ex to run 4 tunze pumps on a surge 1 mode with sinus waves. it works fine. i have set for 0% at night and 20% minimum and 50% maximum. nocturnal decrease is enabled at 730pm(start) and 500am(end). the tunze pumps keeps running on surge at 20% at night and not off. using pc control 5.0.3.2. any idea why the pumps keeps running at night.

I checked the function with your settings and it works as expected, at night we have 0%

could you post all the relevant settings as screenshots, please?

Matthias..thanks for the reply. I have checked the option in each pump to be completely off during inactivity. Not sure what it means but it has made all 4 pumps to shut off during the night. Is this option the correct one for what i needed. thanks again.

Same case.
Miniumum 1%
Maximum 10%
At night 0%

If I do not tick the "Pump completely off during inactivity" then it goes like this:
Pump1 0V
Pump2 3V
Pump3 3V
Pump4 3V

Pump1 3V
Pump2 0V
Pump3 3V
Pump4 3V
and so on.

If I tick the "Pump completely off during inactivity" then it goes like this:

Pump1 3V
Pump2 0V
Pump3 0V
Pump4 0V

Pump1 0V
Pump2 3V
Pump3 0V
Pump4 0V
and so on.


How can all 4 be stoped at night?

I can't believe it, just after posting, all pumps stopped.

It seems like after 1-2 circles they get their night settings. :o
