I'm really confused by the IF POWER APEX OFF programming and the resulting behavior I'm getting.
I have an Apex 2016 with power monitoring enabled and an additional (supplemental) 12V power supply connected to the apex controller unit. That 12V power supply connected directly to the wall outlet. The EB832 is connected to a large UPS.
Lets say I put the following statement in an outlet:
Fallback ON
Set ON
If Power Apex Off 001 Then OFF
The resulting behavior when I simulate a power outage by unplugging the supplemental 12V power supply from the wall is: The outlet immediately turns OFF.
The resulting behavior when Apex reboots/restarts is: The outlet immediately turns OFF.
This has been annoying me, because I do not want the outlet to turn off when Apex reboots/restarts.
Now, lets say that I put the following statement in the same outlet:
Fallback ON
Set ON
If Power Apex Off 000 Then OFF
The resulting behavior when I simulate a power outage by unplugging the supplemental 12V power supply from the wall is: The outlet immediately turns OFF.
The resulting behavior when Apex reboots/restarts is: The outlet stays ON.
It seems that If Power Apex Off 000 Then OFF is working the way I want.
Can you help me understand the behavior? Is this the expected one?
