    DOS Warning and Alarms

    So in the Classic Apex dashboard (not Fusion), when I set up my DOS, it allows me to put in my containers TOTAL VOLUME and VOLUME LEFT. Are these actionable for alarms? If so, can someone provide an idea on how to program this?

    Essentially I would like the DOS to tell me that once I reach 3600ml that my dosing container is almost empty (given that it has ~600ml left)

    Thoughts?

    Unfortunately no, but it would be nice if they did. I requested this exact thing when the DDR was still in beta but it hasn't been added yet to my knowledge.

    For the time being, you will just need to rely on the optical sensors in the DDR to tell you when it's empty.

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

    Sounds good.

    I actually don't have the DDR. I'm using the Fusion 1 and 2 gallon jugs. Figured it would be a nice reminder, but I'll shake them every now and again (like I always have) lol.
