timer function

[Himat]

I would like to know how to achieve 24 switchings in one day
ie switch socket 2 (ON) for 5s every hour.

i can at present set timer for 8 switchings.

i am using firmware 4.07

that is a lot of switching

you could use several timers and programmable logic

1 Timer 1 (12am, 1am, 2am, 3am, 4am, 5am, 6am, 7am)
2 Timer 2 (8am, 9am, 10am, 11am, 12pm, 1pm, 2pm, 3pm)
3 Timer 3 (4pm, 5pm, 6pm, 7pm, 8pm, 9pm, 10pm, 11pm)

Programmable logic:

P1: Timer 1 or Timer 2
P2: P1 or Timer 3

then set socket 2 to programmable logic 2

Another way to do it without using that many timers is to set a dosing pump up with a rate of 5ml at 24 dosings/day at a rate of 60ml/min. that should tun on the pump every hour for 5s. then set you socket to the configured dousing pump.

hi
xiaan

i had configured the first method before i had posted but was not sure if this was correct, thank you for confirming this as this is what its set up as.

i did not know that the second method would work with the sockets, this i will have to play with.

thanks for reply help, as you said it does use 3 timers,
