Try turning invert off. Ditto thought it was required but it was not.

I've shut it off and on 50 times now lol. I have to be missing something but can't find it. Optical sensor has been working as the ATO all week long. If I pull the float switch up manually nothing happens.

Does sensor change to X and then - when you push the float sensor up?

Thanks for the help everyone. I figured it out as I didn't have the outlet set to "Programmable logic." I had it set to "Fill water ATO Only." I too had to change the float switch to not be inverted.

Awesome! Glad to hear you figured it out. Next for me will be programming for a Calcium reactor...
