This Skimmer has a float switch that turns the pump off when the collection cup is full. It uses a VarioS 6-S. I can't use amps and watts as in the UK. Is there a way to program this to alert once full/off? What extra equipment would I need?

You would need to adapt the float that comes in the reef octopus to the breakout box. I don't own one, so I don't know the exact part you would need to adapt it to bare wires without cutting off the end.

Thanks, will make a lead and breakout box today. Seems like a standard float switch so will cut off the end and wire up.
Japastic, did you get it to work? I also have a Reef Octopus skimmer that I control through my apex. I'd like to be notified when my skimmer cup float switch turns off the pump.
