Previously I was using non-dimmable lamps and simply powered on lights during a feed pause with programmable logic.
I am unable to find a method to do this with 1-10v controlled lights.
Is it possible to set a dimmable lamp on during a feed pause?
eg. My lamps respond to clouds, thunderstorms and rainy days. This can mean that at times they are not very bright, I would like to be able to control their brightness at feeding times.
it is even easier
you can setup the voltage for each 1-10V-interface during maintenance
check the maintenance settings
Matthias, thanks for the rapid response, this will do what I want, it will use my last free maintenance slot.Quote:

These systems are feed at different times (reef tank, 3 x breeding racks and growout/fry), is there a way to do this without lighting all of the tanks at once with a single maintenance?
If not, then is it possible to add this capability to the feed pause (1-10v control) or add more maintenance choices?
feedpause can only switch sockets and lower pump speed
I understand that this is the only option today.
Is it something that can be added to feed pause in the future or can more maintenance options be added?
Do you want me to post this in the wish list section and leave this thread as the original problem is now fixed.
How can feedpause do lower pump speed? Thanks,Quote:

This is for controllable pumps like Tunze (and I assume Ecotech) etc
Thanks CaptCrash, Would you please get me a details for the Tunze pump's setting on PLC.Quote:

I found it easier to do this in Profilux Control.
Have a look in the manual
http://support.aquariumcomputer.com/...ad.php?did=462
chapters 1.3.4, 7.4, 7.5 and 8.4
If you have a look through the pump control forum http://forum.aquariumcomputer.com/fo...rol&order=desc there are a heap of examples
I mean that how to set to control pump's speed automatically,when feedpause happens. Thanks.Quote:
