That causes the Vortech mode to change between reefcrest and pulse.
If Outlet V-PUMP = ON Then DayCres
If Outlet V-PUMP = OFF Then Pulse
Although I recently changed the two modes to Tidal Swell and Nutrient Transport.

how does it turn on and off tho? what do those numbers mean? ivve got the max amount of code on my vortech outlets so i need to find a way to minimize it
That portion of my code is just a virtual outlet to toggle between vortech flow profiles.
If I understand you're question, you are asking how I turn off the Vortech?
All the programming comes together in the outlet I have called "Vortech" ...which if I want to turn off the Vortech completely, I can just set that outlet to "off". Or I also have another outlet called maintenance which if I turn that on, the Vortech will turn off.
I would be happy to look over your program if you want. I would suggest signing up for @RussM 's site: Reeftronics. You can then easily copy and paste your entire program into a new thread here on CR that we can try to see if any efficiencies can be created to reduce the code you are using.
Here is my programming and pump profiles for 2 MP60/40/10:

That looks like a lot of code!
What are you hoping to achieve with all the modes? There is randomness within each of the modes...so its not like it is flowing at the same rate for two hours.
i have 2 40's on the sides and 2 10's on teh back down low. im trying to just stir things up 4-5x a day to get things off the bottom of my BB 75
Seems like putting them all in nutrient transport mode several times a day would stir it up pretty well.
thats what they ramp up to, but i dont want to just go from 10-20% on all pumps to 75%. so i use lagoon, then tidal, then NTM.
