    Program for level sensor help

    I'm using a optical sensor in my ro barrels. What i want to do is that when the sensor is open I want to turn my ro on. Once my ro is full and sensor is closed it will turn off my ro. Once it's off i want it to stay off until I manually reset it so ibdont make water every time the sensor is opened. Here's my program

    Feedback off
    Set OFF
    Of ro_unit open then on

    Remove the set OFF and reverse the switch logic and when you want to start it set the outlet to manual ON for 30 seconds then back to auto. If that gives you problems, create a virtual outlet and use this code. Start the fill by setting ROstart to manual ON Then back to auto.

    ROstart
    Set OFF

    RO
    If Outlet ROstart = ON Then ON
    If ro_unit closed then OFF

    Yes, but test it first. Every now and then something bugs out with the firmware and it will go straight to OFF instead of waiting for the switch to turn it off. If that happens, use a VO to trigger the start.
