I'm having some issues programming my apex for my CaRX and I am hoping you guys and gals can help me out. I want to program my regulators solenoid to turn on and off at certain ph points, nothing out of the ordinary there. Well when I go to program the apex using the probe name pH2 it is not allowing me to do so, but it will let me program using the other 2 ph probe names that are already in the apex. The ph2 probe is on fusion and is logging and reading fine. The probe name even shows up in the probe name list when I go to the drop down list. I am baffled as to why its doing this.

It's plugged into the apex brain in the ph/orp plug

Its saying your line2 and line3 codes are incorrect. Toss up a picture under advanced

Fallback OFF. (or on thats up to you)
If pH2 > 06.70 Then ON (this is up to u)
If pH2 < 06.50 Then OFF (this is up tou)
If pH < 07.80 Then OFF ( deffinitly something to consider)

Yea I'll be adding a failsafe to shut the feed pump off if the ph in the reactor gets too low. My issue is that my apex isn't acknowledging my pH2 probe even though it pops up under the probe drop down and when you type in advance it comes up as an option.

Type that in. Also you can defer if you want for a minute on and off. Your ph value is up to you. But between 6.60 and 6.80 is a good starting point

You might have to use both probes with this advanced setting. Give it a try

Copied this in and no go. Still comes up with the same error in lines 2 and 3. It has to do with the ph2 but I can't understand why it's doing that.

Issue resolved, I changed the probe name to phx2 and now it programs.

Thanks for the help!
