Move dos add/remove slider from auto/tbl to off?

[ifreefingwasaperson]

Got that part done

Just to be sure

v-nsw-lo
set off
if nsw-lo OPEN then ON ??? Since I have opticals
defer 001:00 then ON ?? Less sensor tripping

v-nsw-hi
set off
if nsw-hi CLOSED then OFF ???? Since I have opticals
Defer 001:00 then OFF. ??? Less sensor tripping

v-nsw-fill
fallback off
if output v_nsw-lo = on then on??? Cuts solenoid ON when EMPTY
if output v-nsw-hi = off the off ??? Cuts solenoid OFF when FULL

 

[A_Blind_Reefer]

It wont let me enter V_nsw_fill


if v_nsw_lo=on then on

should it be?

if output v_nsw_lo= on then on?

Check caps, it is case sensitive and everything has to be perfect

Sounds correct to me, but always test everything out before implementing and calling it a day

Just to be sure

A few typos

Let us know how it all works out for you. I couldn’t live without this setup myself. My tank would have been in the classifieds for sure. Now I just need a stainless hopper slash auger feeder to automatically add the salt for me and tell the ups driver to just dump the salt in the hopper for me.

Let me look into that! Lol

V-nsw-fill never comes on and activates the solenoid??

V- nsw-lo comes on and that’s it

 

[ifreefingwasaperson]

V- nsw-lo comes on and that’s it

After changing v nsw fill from

fallback off
if output v nsw lo = on then on
if output v nsw hi = off then on

to

if output v nsw hi = off then on, and it came on but never went off when hi optical was resubmerged

Triple check your spelling, including underscores. I don’t think space between letters works. I’m blind….like seriously. I use a screen reader that narrates the screen to me. I’m new to this and it’s super frustrating. I know you’re probably just abbreviating things as you want to get this going but each line of each message is worded differently. Like sometimes you use spaces, sometimes hyphens, and sometimes underscores in the code. I can’t make heads or tails of it. @Sean Clark can you step in here with your eyes and help verify this, I just can’t do it. I’m not mad, it’s just frustrating not being able to check simple things like this

edit. Also, it might be easiest if you copy and paste exactly what the code is so nothing is lost when typing it here

If you move the slider and manually click it on does the solenoid open?

 

[A_Blind_Reefer]

V- nsw-lo comes on and that’s it

If v_nsw_lo comes on but v_nsw_fill does not there must be something wrong in the code. Copy and paste the code here, don’t type it out so we can see it. All of it, the virtuals and sensors.

I need to catch up on the thread and review all of the changes. I look it over and see what I can do. It won't be until tomorrow though.

It goes in order, the last true statement wins so when you change the code it really messes up what it’s supposed to do

Thank you very much! I’m sure it’s something simple

I did find one error in the statements I wrote up here but it wouldn’t have caused your issues.

Go to the v_nsw_reset programming and either remove the defer statement, or change it from one minute to a second or two. I don’t know how I messed that up, but I did. At one minute, you would have to hold the doorbell switch for a full minute to reset. With no defer it’s instant. If you think there’s a possibility that you can accidentally hit the button while mixing salt, then set if for a second or two so that you would have to hold the button for a full second to reset everything.

I did not find any other errors but that doesn’t mean they aren’t there. I miss stuff

Ok I’ll check when I get home.

how do you do the copy and paste here?

 

[Sean Clark]

how do you do the copy and paste here?

Depends on your device.
PC highlight what you want to copy ctrl+c click where you want to put it crtl+v
Android long press over what you want to copy, select copy, long press where you want to put it select paste.
iOs... good luck...
