For a simple float switch wired to Neptune apex, does the default programming already have some hysteresis built in for float switches or I need to code it into the programming.

For example I don’t want waves in the tank tripping on and off equipment constantly as the float switch moves up and down.
 
Yes there is a defer.

But that’s for ato. I mean for when a switch gets activated
 
you can still used it. Just put the same switch name in both spots. If you select ato and then switch to advanced you will see it produces the same code you would pretty much use for a float. Technically you don’t need the “close then off” if the set defaulting of off. But it does not make a difference since a switch is only open or close.
