After hours of trying I officially give up!!
I need to program my apex to
1) pause the pumps and skimmer (which I already have tied to feed cycle A),
2) wait for a few minutes so water level stabilizes
3) then have the automatic feeder run once
4) wait for 10 minutes, and then resume everything as normal.

I already read as much on the apex forums as I could. I just can't get this dang thing to work and I'm heading out of town soon. Getting really frustrated! It really shouldn't be that hard but I'm doing something wrong and I can't figure it out.
:letitallo
Anyone out there could lend a hand? I could pay you a little something for your expertise. Greatly appreciated.

I have a similar setup (but only wait one minute for water level to stabilize). I did it by setting up a virtual outlet. When the virtual outlet is on, all the pumps and skimmer turn off. Then the below lines are used to program the Skimmer:

Set OFF
If Outlet Virtual_Feed = ON Then ON
Defer 001:00 Then ON

You should be able to use a longer defer time if you want.
