    DC8 Output 2 is not turning off !!

    Hi, I have an old AC3 working very nice, but the output 2 of my 2nd DC8 looks to do not respond.
    I configured this:
    If FeedB 040 Then RTN OFF
    If FeedB 040 Then SKM OFF
    If FeedB 040 Then WV1 OFF
    If FeedB 040 Then WV2 OFF
    If FeedB 040 Then WV3 OFF
    If FeedB 040 Then WV4 OFF
    If FeedB 040 Then WV5 OFF
    If FeedB 040 Then WV6 OFF

    Where Output2 od 2nd DC8 is used as SKM.
    If I select FeedB, all turns off except SKM.
    SKM is ON all the time.
    What can I do? In my first DC8, Output 2 is not usable.

    I remember I saw saomething about outoput 2 on DC8, but can remember what.
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    This is the only line:
    If Time > 00:00 Then SKM ON

    Return pump has the same line and it is working.

    Is there a reason you are using an If Time statement instead of Set ON?

    Also, what skimmer are you using? It is possible that it may not be drawing enough current for the TRIAC to shut it off.

    Can you turn the outlet off manually using either Fusion or the display?

    What is the power rating of the pump you are using? Check out this sticky to see if you may be having this problem.

    I believe so. If I remember correctly, outlets 4 and 8 have a "Relay" designation indicating a mechanical relay.

    You are correct. But I do not know if there is something different about outlet 2.
