I am still tweaking my ACIII program and was wondering what your programs look like. Since I am asking, I will start this with my listing. If Time > 00:00 Then RPM ON If Power 000 Then MHB OFF Max Change 020 M Then MHB ON If Power 000 Then MHW OFF Max Change 025 M Then MHW ON If Time > 12:00 Then MHB ON If Time > 22:00 Then MHB OFF If Time > 13:00 Then MHW ON If Time > 21:00 Then MHW OFF If Time > 21:00 Then MNL ON If Time > 07:00 Then MNL OFF If Time > 12:00 Then FGL OFF If Time > 21:00 Then FGL ON If Temp > 82.0 Then MHW OFF Max Change 090 M Then MHW ON If Temp > 83.0 Then MHB OFF Max Change 060 M Then MHB ON If Temp < 77.0 Then HTR ON If Temp > 78.0 Then HTR OFF If Temp > 78.5 Then FNT ON If Temp < 77.0 Then FNT OFF If Temp > 78.5 Then FNB ON If Temp < 77.0 Then FNB OFF If Timer MHW = ON Then MJC ON OSC 005/010 ON/OFF Then MJL OFF OSC 010/005 ON/OFF Then MJR ON If FeedA 000 Then MJR OFF If FeedA 000 Then MJL OFF If FeedA 000 Then MJC OFF If ORP < 340 Then OZN ON If ORP > 350 Then OZN OFF If Temp < 50.0 Then MHB OFF If Temp < 50.0 Then MHW OFF If Temp < 50.0 Then FNT OFF If Temp < 50.0 Then FNB OFF If Temp < 50.0 Then HTR OFF If Time > 00:00 Then ALM OFF If Temp > 83.5 Then ALM OFF If pH > 08.50 Then ALM ON If pH < 07.90 Then ALM ON If ORP > 450 Then ALM ON If ORP < 275 Then ALM ON

Nice Steve, will try and get mine posted later today, after I update it.

Well how about it folks? Anyone have their program ready to show the world?

I did, but made the mistake of writing it in the ac3 module, so when I updated it hiccuped and went away. So now I will do it over in word and them try and update it that way.

Pretty simple actually... I'll pick one line and dissect it for you: 05 15 * * * /root/scripts/sw_power_compact1_on 05 - Minutes after the hour 15 - Hour of the day, in military time * * * Every day, every week, every month /root/scripts/sw_power_compact1_on - The name and location of the script to be run. The scripts are all simple scripts that just send the appropriate X10 commands to their appropriate devices, but I tried to name the scripts so that they'd make sense. But for completeness, the sw_power_compact1_on script has the following one line in it: heyu on a7 So, the above command turns the Power Compact light that I labeled 1 on at 3:05 PM every day...

Okay, while this was not a contest I think I will officially declare you as the winner. No one is going to top that. My main purpose for this post thread was to see what others have done.

Great job there Glenn. I think I need to make a few changes to mine. One is to the temp/light control. THe new lights have 3 plugs for the MH so I can turn them on and off idependently like you have for yours. Also I was reading some other examples, and you can create dummy timers to use in around those functions as well. I will update the post above with changes as they get made. I am beginning to think I should have bought a second DC8. Might have to order one since I want to add more stuff on the controller. Saw last night an example that used one of the FEED cycles for water changes and shut everything off. was a good idea IMO.

Got that from another user. Basically if the temp probe comes out of the water or fails then the temperature will drop less than 50. If that happens you want to turn everything off and fire an alarm. Since you would have no way of knowing what the temp is you could potentially cook you tank. (Heaters come on, lights never turn off, etc...) BTW - just orderd a second DC8

If Time > 00:00 Then RPM ON If Time > 00:00 Then SKM ON If Time > 00:00 Then MJL OFF If Time > 00:00 Then KOL OFF If Time > 00:00 Then ALM OFF	Set default conditions for timers
If Power 000 Then ACT OFF Max Change 015 M Then ACT ON If Power 000 Then HQI OFF Max Change 020 M Then HQI ON	If power outage bring lighting on at staged intervals to prevent surge.
If Time > 12:00 Then ACT ON If Time > 22:00 Then ACT OFF If Time > 13:00 Then HQI ON If Time > 21:00 Then HQI OFF If Time > 21:00 Then MNW ON If Time > 21:00 Then MNB ON If Time > 02:00 Then MNW OFF If Time > 07:00 Then MNB OFF	Turn lighting on in stages for sunrise to sunset effect.
If Temp > 82.0 Then HQI OFF Max Change 090 M Then HQI OFF If Temp > 83.0 Then ACT OFF Max Change 060 M Then ACT OFF If Temp < 76.5 Then HTR ON If Temp > 77.0 Then HTR OFF If Temp > 78.0 Then FNT ON If Temp < 77.5 Then FNT OFF If Temp > 78.5 Then FNB ON If Temp < 78.0 Then FNB OFF	Temperature control. Halides go off when temp reaches 82.0. They will stay off for 90 minutes from the time the temp reaches < 82.0 This helps prevent bounces on the halides and gives them time to cool before refiring. Actinics go off at 83.0 and come on 60 minutes after the temp reaches less than 83.0.
If Timer HQI = ON Then SWL ON If Timer HQI = OFF Then SWL OFF	Turns on the closed loop when the Halides come on.
RND 015/015 ON/OFF Then MJR ON If Timer MJR = OFF Then MJL ON RND 015/045 ON/OFF Then MJT OFF If Timer MJT = ON Then MJR OFF If Timer MJT = ON Then MJL OFF RND 015/015 ON/OFF Then KOR ON If Timer KOR = OFF Then KOL ON RND 015/030 ON/OFF Then KOT OFF If Timer KOT = ON Then KOR OFF If Timer KOT = ON Then KOL OFF	Random timer programming for the maxi jets and korellia pumps. The use of the MJT timer and KOT timer is to balance the on off event. Using the extra timer allows for a more even timing.
If ORP < 340 Then OZN ON If ORP > 375 Then OZN OFF	Ozone control
If Temp < 50.0 Then ACT OFF If Temp < 50.0 Then HQI OFF If Temp < 50.0 Then FNT OFF If Temp < 50.0 Then FNB OFF If Temp < 50.0 Then HTR OFF	If the temp probe comes out of the water or fails this will shut off anything that produces heat or cools. Helps prevent a melt down.
If Temp > 83.5 Then ALM ON If pH > 08.50 Then ALM ON If pH < 07.80 Then ALM ON	Alarm settings for pH need to add for Temp.
If pH < 07.60 Then CAR OFF	If pH drops below 7.60 on the main tank shut off the Ca Reactor.
If FeedA 000 Then MJR OFF If FeedA 000 Then MJL OFF If FeedA 000 Then SWL OFF If FeedA 000 Then KOL OFF If FeedA 000 Then KOR OFF If FeedA 000 Then SKM OFF	Feed A turns off all the pumps for a few minutes to allow the food to sit in the water column longer. I have also set up FeedB to turn off everything for performing water changes.

Most of the codes are in the book. Could you be a little more specific as to what you are looking for? I mean really there is only, IF, THEN, ON, OFF, <> POWER, TIMER, MAX CHANGE, TIME, RND, OSC, ALARM. Most others are made up by you.
