In apex fusion how do you set the fluid mounting level to know much fluid is used out of the dosing container?
 
Are you talking about the LLS (liquid level sensor) or the DDR (dual dosing reservoir) - or something else?
example, I have a 1000ml container and I want to monitor how much has be dosed from that container?

Also, I need some assistance with some fail safe programming

When you set up the dose for dosing, it asks you how large your reservoirs are that values and put it into the system and as the Apex uses fluid it calculates it and does the math and shows you what it has removed

It does not actually measure was being used. It goes off of what’s supposed to be commended being used so if you have 1000 mL and you dose supposedly 10 mL it will go to 990 that does not mean toast 10 mils that means the computer commanded to those 10 mils let’s say you have a leak in your hose there’s no way for the system to know that.

Unless you're using the Neptune DDR, there's no way to visually see how much has been used in Fusion. What kind of fail-safe programming do you need?

I don't have a failsafe yet because I don't know how.

I want protection for overdosing Kalkwasser. I have the versa that dose saturated kalk and replenishes my ATO. The PH level controls it and It only dose at night when my PH drops below 8.0.

I apex to shut down the versa if it stays on for over 5 mins or if PH is over 8.4 and send me an alarm.

Do you have the versa power supply plugged into a controllable outlet on your apex? The only smart way to have your apex control versa is by controlling the power to it.

Once you do that you can add code to the outlet to not allow it to be on longer than 5 minutes at a time. You can also add fail safes that point to pH. If the pH gets too high (which is indicative to overdosing kalk) , you can program apex to turn that outlet off.

Yes to all except for for the fail safe code

If you look up a few posts you'll my codes for the Versa l.
I don't know how I missed that...

Alright looks like your code is right except that you need to remove "SET OFF" if you want the 2 lines of > & < to work properly.

The Defer statement is good because it prevents the outlet from cycling on and off when it's bouncing back and forth at 8.20. It makes sure that the pH is below 8.20 for 5 minutes before it turns the outlet on. If it holds for 4m 59s and goes to 8.21 it will reset that 5m timer.

The tricky part is having the pump only run for 5 minutes when the pH drops below 8.20. Are you suggesting that 5 minutes of pump on time will guarantee the pH to go above 8.22? If not then the pump will remain in the off state until pH gets above 8.22.

There isn't an easy way to have the pump cycle on and off with 5 minute intervals until it reaches 8.22.

And I'm not sure if 5 minute intervals is what you're after anyway.

Or maybe just by removing the SET OFF statement, you'll be happy with how the outlet operates.

Let me know if I'm even on the right page with you.

I found this video and I believe it'll protect me versa from overdosing to much kalk if the PH probe malfunction.

That's a WHEN statement, that acts as a circuit breaker that requires manual reset. Basically you would slide the switch from OFF to AUTO and after 3 minutes it trips to OFF.

The other one goes into your email outlet, and it will send a push notification if there's an error with the outlet. It wouldn't be able to detect any error within the versa.

Did you read my last post? What are your thoughts?
