Reefkeeper question

[jdemarco]

I have RKE and i want to set up a timer for some of my lights. (i use my current truelumen to come on first and to stay on late) I wanted to use a TIMER function because I wanted to treat SAT and SUN different than Monday -Fri......soooo i was trying to use a TIMER but the max duration on a TIMER seems to be 12 hours.
HERE IS WHAT I WANT TO ACCOMPLISH: I would like to set it up so that my lights come on MON -FRI at 2pm tilll midnight and on SAT and SUN come on at 10am till midnight......I cant seem to accomplish this by using the LIGHT functionality so i was thinking i had to set it up using the TIMER function but again if i have itcome on at 10am i cant seem to get it to make it till Midnight as the max amount to be ON seems to be 12 hours as i mentioned......anyone point me in the right direction?

I know this doesn't help, but why do you have the lights start 4 hours earlier on the weekends? Is it to simulate overcast or clear weather conditions?

Here is DA's support site.

i want to run longer on weekend when i home strictly for personal enjoyment purposes....anyone with a reefkeeper know how to accomplish a varied schedule whereby your lights run on different schedule depending on day of week...again i was trying to use multiple TIMERS but the longets durattion seems to be 12 hours and i desire to run the lights for more than that on weekend? thanks

Anyone out there with reefkeeper experience who has a timer programmed with duration of more than 12 hours...I am pretty sure someone out there has def resolved my issue already...please share.

Not positive but think u can program the days and mayb longer hours if you download the DA myreef 2.0 I believe ..don't have it in front of me so not positive but worth a shot...

I have an Apex and I know if you want the weekends different you can do an advanced function where you would write

if MTWTHF if 12:00 to 24:00 then on
If SSUN if 10:00 to 24:00 then on

This is not the exact command and I don't know if DA has this feature but that's how it's done with the Apex

Good luck and usually a question like that I post on RC. It's a bigger audience and the might have a forum
