    Default Offsetting pumps via timer? (alternating flow)

    I have 2 Sicce power-heads and I'd like them to alternate on/off every 10 min. Is it possible to have the second treat the first like a master? As in, only turn on when the master turns off?

    Or any other way I can set the two outlets to alternate back n forth?

    Hello,

    there are several ways how you could do this with a ProfiLux-controller:

    - Timers/processes:
    * cyclic timer
    set the on-off switch times like
    switch1 on: 1s
    switch1 off: 10s

    switch2 on: 11s
    switch2 off: 20s

    - Programmable Logic
    Define a gate that depends on your switch1 channel and invert it.

    - Stream groups with an alternating pattern, which you can read more of in this article:
