    Return shut off during feed

    Shouldn't the return pump shut off with this wizard when feed A is on?

    Yes, as long as you uploaded the code and the outlet is in AUTO.

    Is this the problem? I have two EB832's. The two show up under modules and only one shows up under outputs?

    I see both under both fields. The 10_X are one EB832 and the 2_X are the other. Make sure it's actually plugged into the outlet you think it is. Turn it to manual ON Then to manual OFF and see which LED changes. Make sure that's where you have it plugged in.

    The AFS doesn't plug into an outlet?

    Yes I want to use the wizards to shut the two return pumps off when the AFS is feeding.

    FeedA is not linked to the AFS. It is for manual feedings only. To trigger the return from automatic feedings you need to use a virtual outlet. Search for vFeed and the examples are endless.

    I meant search the forums for vFeed. Here is an example.
