In some circumstances, the hobbyists may prefer to slow down the flow pumps to minimum speed instead of turning them OFF and allow the slow-eating inhabitant to feed.
Create a Feeding Schedule
Add a new “Schedule” and configure it using the following values:
- Pattern – Constant Speed
- Constant Speed – Set this to 1% if you want the pumps to run at Minimum Speed.
- Pump Count – Set this to the desired number of pumps you want to run when this schedule is active.
TIP: The Pump Count is not a dropdown field. It is a slider. To change the number of pumps, place your finger on the blue number and slide left or right to decrease or increase pumps. - Pump # – Select each pump you want to add to the schedule.
- Position # – Select the position you want this pump to assume when running in this schedule.
WARNING: You MUST select a pump. If you leave this field blank, then your pumps will not run. ONLY pumps assigned to a schedule will automatically run. - Allow Reverse – Do Not Enable
- Active in Modes – Uncheck all but Feeding.
- Start Time – Set this to 00:00:00
- End Time – Set this to 00:00:00
- Run every N Days – Set this to 1
- Run On Days of Week – Select ALL days of the week
- Depends On – Unused
- Enable Advanced Settings – Leave them disabled.
