See picture....the water level is low and it's not topping off. If I raise the plastic cylinder to the top, the water starts to flow....am thinking I should turn the device upside down?

Yes it's upside down :) Just flip it over. The float drops as your water level drops which switches it on. As level rises so shall the float thus shutting off the pump.
 
The monitor will never turn on cuz..the float has closed the circuit ...it will think it is topped off at right level...

So just rotate it around.
 
Thanks, I turned it around and it seems to be working.
Just trying to keep stabile water level for the skimmer to work continuosly.
