I am learning the 5/05 programming as I do this.

I need to run 4 different pumps but I need to alternate which pump starts first to keep the operating hours close to the same. TI software uses a Drum to alternate the starts, is there a similar way to do this in RSLogix 500?

The first pump will need to star the first cycle, then pump 2 the next cycle and so on.

Also, as the water level rises, the other pumps need to come on sequentially until they all run if needed.

Is there an easy way around this or does it look like I will have to program a section to address this.

Thanks.
