    Reservoir Programming help

    Hello I have a 160 gal reservoir that I'm installing a FMM and a apex solenoid switch connected to my RODI and I need some programming help. The program that I tried from other users on the forum isn't working.


    Fallback OFF
    If Swx6_1 OPEN Then ON (swx6_1 = Low optical switch)
    If Swx6_2 CLOSED Then OFF (swx6_2 = Hi optical switch)
    Defer 000:05 Then ON

    I need a Program that says when the water goes below the low switch the solenoid turns on and ONLY turns off when both the HI and Low switch is covered by water. At the moment the FMM is turning off when either of the optical switches are under water.

    And before someone says it yes I would like to change the names of the optical switches but I don't know how to do it in apexfusion.

    Any help with this would be appreciated.
    Thanks jtspeedy

    Sounds from your description like you added a set OFF by mistake that you forgot to post. If so remove that. If that is not the case, make sure your cables are pushed in all the way as this can cause similar behavior if they are a tiny bit loose.

    To change the name, click the icon that looks like a thermometer then select the switch in that inputs page and you can rename there.

    If that is the code that is uploaded, the code itself is fine. The problem is somewhere in the setup. Double check that the low is plugged into 1 and the high in 2. Reseat and make sure they click when you insert them and that their states show correctly in fusion (covered = closed).

    I reset the fmm and now it is working as I need it to.

    I'm not finding the thermometer icon in apex fusion, this is the apex classic I have does it make a difference weather is the classic or new version?

    Your profile said 2016, so those instructions were for that. For the apex classic, you need to go to the classic dashboard and then navigate to the probe setup page.
