FMM - Solenoid turning off improperly

I currently have two FMMs one for my water change closet and a second for my main display. On both systems I’m attempting to automate a solenoid to top off containers. One being my main RODI storage and the second my ATO reservoir. I have both systems coded similarly and on each the solenoid is turning off early. Any assistance would be much appreciated.

RO system:

Fallback set OFF
Set OFF
RO_HI CLOSED set OFF
RO_LO OPEN set ON

ATO system:
Fallback set OFF
Set OFF
TO_HI CLOSED set OFF
TO_LO OPEN set ON

On both the solenoid will turn on when the level is low. However, it will automatically turn off far before closing the HI sensor.

Take out the SET OFF commands. The SET command is always true so will take affect if nothing supersedes it. The CLOSED condition won't be true until water reaches the switch.

Thanks!

So a simple;

IF RO_HI CLOSED then OFF
IF RO_LO OPEN then OFF

Will work?

I also have a lead probe in a 5 gallon bucket that is attached to the RO tank as an overflow. Would “RO_LEA CLOSED then OFF” be appropriate?

Apologizes for being so lost, I have no coding basis but definitely wanting to learn!

RO system:

Fallback OFF
RO_HI CLOSED set OFF
RO_LO OPEN set ON


ATO system:
Fallback OFF
TO_HI CLOSED set OFF
TO_LO OPEN set ON


I don't understand your question regarding the 5 gal bucket.

EDIT
Sorry I totally butchered that. I did a copy paste and didnt check it.

Corrected syntax errors and lack of failsafes...

RO system:
Fallback OFF
If RO_LO OPEN Then ON
If RO_HI CLOSED Then OFF
If RO_LEA CLOSED then OFF

ATO system:
Fallback OFF
Set OFF
If TO_HI CLOSED Then OFF
If TO_LO OPEN Then ON
Defer 000:10 Then ON
Defer 000:10 Then OFF
Min Time 060:00 Then OFF
When On > 005:00 Then OFF



You might be an engineer if...You have no life and can prove it mathematically.

Sorry not the clearest

My RO tank has an overflow pipe that at one point was plumbed outside. In my current house this isn’t possible so I utilized a pipe into the 5 gallon bucket to allow for a little extra overflow Incase I forgot.

I just recently purchased a leak probe to place in that bucket as a failsafe and am looking to have it turn off the solenoid if it ever senses water.

Would “IF RO_Leak CLOSED then OFF” be the correct code?

Yes. That line is included in code I show in post 5.

Awesome thanks, I missed your post while typing a response. Much appreciated!

Is there anywhere I can read up on different commands that I can utilize? Thanks again for your help

The comprehensive user manual has all of them except for the some module specific ones from newer modules and the new when command.

The when command says If Outlet XX is ON (or off) for more than YY amount of time than set the outlet to manual OFF (or ON).

Sorry for my sloppy response. I did a copy paste/edit and didnt pay attention to the final result.

I copied the coding over and the solenoid for RO is still turning off well before the RO_HI is closed. Any ideas?

Is the leak sensor CLOSED right now?

Leak sensor is open. Both solenoids turn off before filling containers to HI sensors

Copy paste directly from your outlet. You might have made a copy paste error. Also if the water level is in between and you set to AUTO it will be OFF until it hits the low sensor. You have to set it to manual ON and then slide to AUTO if you want it to fill to the top the first time.

Fallback OFF
If TO_HI CLOSED Then OFF
If TO_LO OPEN Then ON

Is the power to the solenoid connected to a wall outlet or to an outlet on the energy bar?

If connected to the energy bar, what is the programming in that outlet?

Did you copy past the wrong one? Those switch names are your ATO switches.

Yes sorry I did copy over the wrong one.

I have tried each code in this thread and all combinations. For whatever reason the solenoids turn off themselves on auto

They are connected to the EB

I'm wondering if I would be better off running 1 optical sensor on each?

Was tired when responding the solenoid is plugged in using the 24V with above programming
