"Ghost"-alarm on Neptune Apex

[CasperOe]

Hi Reefers,

After removing a flow sensor from my system, I keep receiving a "low flow" alarm (from previous programming). Below is a copy of my "base_email" programming:

How do I make this go away?

Set OFF
Fallback ON
If LEAK_1 CLOSED Then ON
If LEAK_2 CLOSED Then ON
If LEAK_3 CLOSED Then ON
If LEAK_4 CLOSED Then ON
If LEAK_5 CLOSED Then ON
If Tmp > 27.2 Then ON
If pH > 8.50 Then ON
If ORP > 440 Then ON
If Output RETURN_PUMP = OFF Then ON
If Output SKIMMER Watts < 1 Then ON
If ATO_HI CLOSED Then ON
If RO_HI CLOSED Then ON
If RO_HH CLOSED Then ON
If Error ATK_PMUP Then ON
If SUMP > 22.0 Then ON
If FL_UV < 350 Then ON
If ALK > 11.00 Then ON
If RO_LVL < 35.0 Then ON
Defer 010:00 Then OFF

Have you tried turning it off then back on (i.e. the whole system)

Yeah, restarted it a couple of times in frustrations because I could not find the source of the alarm!

Did you unplug the EBB as well?

 

[CasperOe]

Did you unplug the EBB as well?

That I did not do... The EBB is the apex main unit itself?

 

[MnFish1]

Additionally, any programming behind your return pump? Did you try turning the alarm slider from 'auto' to 'off' then back to 'auto'

 

[MnFish1]

The EBB is basically the thing you plug the cords into

That I did try with no luck! When i turn to off, the alarm goes away allright.

Only this programming behind my return pump:

Fallback ON
Set ON
If LEAK_1 CLOSED Then OFF

So the EB632? The energy bar? Got four of those plugged in; none of which has had anything to do with the flow meter (was plugged in to a FMM module).

Will give them a hard restart tomorrow one by one (terrifying!)

Either there has to be that line of code 'somewhere' or there is another problem with the unit IMHO. When I was using an Apex, I did not have a good experience with the alarms (and it was not my programming).

At this point, it might very well be a ticket for an expert! I am just about to give up; I have checked the coding for absolutely every outlet i have whether EB632, 12v, 24v - the lot!

Did you have any luck resolving this? I'm having the exact same issue.

the only cure is calling Neptune
