Not sure if I follow, is it manual done or automatically done.

I have it set to 120 min.

can someone explain this in detail please

Auto and manual itself is self explanatory. Auto retrys the specified number of days until it completes. Most people use manual, with the view that  EQ should be carried out based on need.

With manual, on a lite, what you do is start it by pushing the eq button (holding it for a few secs), (full see manual), at the start of the day, and instead of going bulk, absorb, float, will go bulk, eq, then float. It doenst work as some other systems do, going bulk, abosrd, eq, float. However if you wait til the normal cycle and float occurs, you can hit eq after its done.

Also note that SOC and EQ dont presently play too well together. Another reason to let it absrob first.

That cover it?

Zoneblue,

I think that is valid for the Classic but that the Kid has manual EQ. only for now, it's on the list of features real soon now, just needs a future firmware upgrade.
