I have a Zilla Dual Analog power center alternating timer that for the life of me I can't make sense of the instructions. I want to set up two powerheads as wavemaker. Please help, or direct me to a site with more explicit instructions....

Thanks

Is this right?

OK - so the upper timer ring controls black and blue outlets (one on while other off) and the lower timer ring controls just yellow outlets (on or off)?

those timers aren't really made to be used as wave makers. More for your lights so you can turn them on and off at certain times. If you want to set up a wave maker youll need DC pumps so you don't they don't get stuck in reverse and don't have to replace them frequently. Or just get Rw-4 or RW-8 and put them to alternate. Cheaper route is to get the hydor wavemaker but again if youre not using dc pump youll blow them out.
