I have Hydros and I have the preset RODI output that creates boost, flush and run outputs that unfortunately can't be used as a dependency for any other outputs unfortunately.

Hydros flushes the RO for 1 minute once it is triggered to turn on when the reservoir low level sensor is dry and then flushes for a minute every hour until the high sensor gets wet. It usually takes 4-5 hours to fill up the FW reservoir and I want to add a flush for 1-2 minutes after the RO flush solenoid runs to help with the TDS creep but as I mentioned I can't make the two solenoids dependent on the flush output which would make it super easy.

I thought of adding another RODI setup and have the TDS creep solenoids run for a minimum of 3 minutes (so it won't shut off after pre-programmed 1 minute flush) and force it to run for 2 extra minutes. Basically I'd have the normally open solenoid be the main line going into the triple resin setup with the normally closed solenoid T'd off to the waste line and when they're both powered it would flush into the waste line.

Any other Hydros experts have any other ideas? I did reach out to CoralVue support to get their input and added the request to allow for "child" outputs from preset outputs to be allowed to be used as dependencies.
