Hey everyone I just set up the Apex A3 last night and I wanted to use the optical sensor as a high level in the sum but for some reason it is always alarming🤷‍♂️

Does your Apex show the sensor as closed ? Post your Tree diagram with the FMM branched out.
For some reason it isnt letting me upload the screen shot i took, i tried to share 3 more in the original post but wouldnt let me upload either
 
Reason I ask is it easy to get them in the wrong port. Also make sure they're plugged in all the way, sometimes it takes a bit of force to make sure it is seated all the way.
Ill check that but i checked the wires twice now and labeled them but ill try and push them in more
