So after switching from hob aio filter to a sump I attempted to setup ato/awc after moving sensors and drain pump. I wanted to make a change in the schedule so I did that. That's when my problem started. I've been trying for two days now to stop the awc cycle from constantly repeating. It runs then finishes and after 5 to 10 minutes or so it repeats. I can't find in the schedule or the awc output page why this keeps happening. I'll post pics of the setup.

Wow, that sounds strange!


BUMP!
 
I think I have been given the solution but being that I’ve had 6 water changes while trying to figure this out I want to wait until tomorrow to allow some nutrients to build back up. It appears a single slider to toggle the remote schedule usage was not set. I feel however that this should be looked at by coralvue as the water change count was set to 1 in both the schedule and the awc output which was being totally ignored causing the looping change cycle. Stay tuned I’ll report back.
 
So toggling the slider has resolved the looping water change cycle. I contacted coralvue about this and suggested they look at this because to me it would be much less problematic to have the water change not run at all if the toggle is not set than to have it run and just continue to repeat like it was for me.
