    Float Swtich and DOS/AWC

    Trying to think about how I would program the DOS that is used for water changes to 'not DOS' if a float switch is active. I do not have the DOS connected to an EB8 or similar, just a wall outlet in the garage. Tank is the house but want to an emergency float switch in, so if tripped that means something is wrong and to stop the DOS.

    Just want to make sure I have this correct since it won't be controlling a physical outlet but the DOS system itself.

    In the advanced tab add this line

    If Switchname CLOSED Then OFF

    Or open if that's the "active" state

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

    yup that did it. Safty is always key when you have double the water in a reservoir that your sump can hold.
