No, this is gold for me, I've written a couple of programmes in Crimson over the years, but have always felt the code was messy and probably incorrect, my background is PLC.

The plant only runs 5 days a week (0 ==Sunday:nodi

So starting with seconds means it will only look at the next statement every minute instead of every tick? Aww man I've got a lot of code to correct!

Thanks for taking the time.

Exactly.

So there are a few choices

• if (.Day>0 && .Day <6)
• if (!(.Day<1 || .Day>5))
• if (.Day%6)
• if (MOD(.Day,6)>0)

I dunno about correct syntax; I suspect the first two are faster, but as the inner tests executing only seven times a week it will not matter. That said, the last two are just cute and so should be avoided.

What is this? I thought % was modulo?

yes, modulo binary operator; if .Day is not 0 (Sunday) or 6 (Saturday), it will be a weekday.
