Neptune Program Question

[Fatrip]

I have setup an output to turn on my Kalk reactor pump but don’t want the pump to turn on if my ATO is on. I get a programming error (below) with the below program. Was looking for some guidance and or if there is a better way to code it. Thanks

Fallback OFF
OSC 000:00/001:00/999:00 Then ON
IF ATO1 = CLOSED Then ON

Send Failed​

//Error: line 3 - Expected CLOSED or OPEN // If ATO1 = CLOSED Then ON

Is ATO1 a sensor or an outlet?

If it's a sensor then:

Fallback OFF
OSC 000:00/001:00/999:00 Then ON
If ATO1 CLOSED Then OFF

If it's an outlet then:

Fallback OFF
OSC 000:00/001:00/999:00 Then ON
If Outlet ATO1 = ON Then OFF

ATO1 is a sensor on the ATO.
Shouldn’t it be that

If ATO1 CLOSED Then On

it is the low sensor so when it is closed the ATO is off.

I think I see the issue,

If the sensor is closed at any time then the Kalk pump turns on.

If ATO1 OPEN Then OFF

should work if the reactor turns on from the time and the ATO1 Opens it will turn the Kalk pump off.
Right??

Then it should be:
Fallback OFF
OSC 000:00/001:00/999:00 Then ON
If ATO1 OPEN Then OFF

I would lean towards pointing the code to turn off when the ATO pump is in operation...

Fallback OFF
OSC 000:00/001:00/999:00 Then ON
If Outlet [AtoOutlet] = ON Then OFF

remove the brackets and change the name "ATO outlet" to the name you have assigned in fusion.

The reason for this choice is usually the code for an ATO has a delay so that it doesn't kick on and off with fluctuation in water level. Pointing your kalwasser outlet to the ato outlet will make things easier. This way your kalkwasser outlet isn't turning on and off as water fluctuates around that sensor. It removes the need of a delay in the kalwasser code.

Thank you. I think that code should work, that way wether the ATO is running or not if the sensor is Open that Kalk reactor pump won’t run.

I thought about using the ATO but couldn’t figure it out as the ATO is an FMM plugged into Aquabus

Even if it's plugged into an FMM the ato will be assigned as an outlet in fusion. All you have to do is find the name of the outlet and add it to "IF Outlet xxx..."

Ok. I will try that. Thank you.
