    Vortech MP10 Powers off with Outlet set to "Auto"

    My MP10 loses power when I set my outlet to "Auto". Below is a screenshot of my outlet and my module. Can anyone assist in diagnosing the problemScreen Shot 2015-02-28 at 1.45.34 PM.pngScreen Shot 2015-02-28 at 1.48.51 PM.pngScreen Shot 2015-02-28 at 1.52.47 PM.pngScreen Shot 2015-02-28 at 1.54.47 PM.png

    Your outlet MP10wes_3_3 is wrong , this is most likely the power brick outlet of your pump ?

    Use :

    Fallback ON
    Set ON

    Leave this one to AUTO .

    Use the programmable pump outlet ( Vortech_4_1 ) for any programming .

    There's no need to even use an EB outlet for Vortechs.
    Please do not send me PMs with technical questions or requesting assistance - use the forums for Apex help. PM me ONLY if the matter is of a private or personal nature. Thanks.

    Thanks Alain. That did the trick. Guess I am still learning the Fusion interface.

    Understood. Being new to the Apex system just assumed that I would run all pumps through the EB8. Thanks for the advice.

    You can use an EB outlet if desired for the sake of convenience, but if you do it should simply be programmed as Alain described.
