Hello,
I just got an Apex (2016) and am programming my ATO and AWC. I'm a previous Digital Aquatics Archon user so I'm trying to translate my programming from it to the Apex.
My setup:
Three float switches in the Sump: High, Mid, Low
Three Spectrapure pumps (dumb pumps, not the ones with the dosing modules): One for ATO, one for AWC Drain, and one for AWC Fill.
The ATO will be triggered by the Mid float switch. The High and Low switches are alarms/failsafes.
Every Mon-Wed-Fri between 8:00am and 8:15am, the AWC system will change approximately 1 gallon of water.
Here's what I have so far:
Outlet AWCDrain:
Fallback OFF
Set OFF
If DoW -M-W-F- Then ON
If Time 08:00 to 08:15 Then ON
If Sump_L OPEN Then OFF <-- If, by chance, my water level is too low, I don't want the AWC to take any more water out
If Output RefilSaltWtr = ON Then OFF <-- Virtual Outlet for manually refilling the tank (drip acclimating, manual water removal, etc)
Outlet AWCFill:
Fallback OFF
Set OFF
If DoW -M-W-F- Then ON
If Time 08:16 to 08:31 Then ON
If Sump_M OPEN Then OFF <-- Will this work to stop the pump at the nominal Mid Switch position regardless of what time it is?
If Sump_H OPEN Then OFF <-- Failsafe for not overflowing the sump
If Output RefilSaltWtr = ON Then ON <-- Manual saltwater refill... Will this line override the DoW and Time constraints?
Outlet ATO:
Fallback OFF
Set OFF
If Sump_M CLOSED Then ON
If Sump_H OPEN Then OFF
If pH > 8.60 Then OFF <-- ATO water goes through a Kalk stirrer
If Salt < 32.0 Then OFF
If Output AwcDrain = ON Then OFF <-- Suspend ATO during the AWC cycle
If Output AWCFill = ON Then OFF
Defer 001:00 Then ON <-- Is this the correct usage for Defer? If I'm thinking right, after all above triggers are met, it'll wait one minute to turn on?
Virtual Outlet for Refill Salt Water:
Set OFF <--Should this be Set ON so that when I put the outlet in Auto, the pump will come on? Will it honor the DoW/Time restraints in the AWCFill Outlet code?
If Sump_H OPEN Then OFF
If Sump_M OPEN Then OFF
Thanks for any and all input!
