Apex Program Help

[kadamik]

I can't get this figured out, I pretty sure I need to create a virtual outlet but not sure of the programming

1. Cor15 return pump
2. FeedA
3. FeedB
4. FeedC

I want to set an Alarm to go off when
Cor15 = off and (Feeda or Feedb or Feedc) = off

So basically, I want to know when the Cor15 is off outside of the Feed modes

There is a way to program that to happen with a virtual outlet, but I don't think it will perform the actual function you want to be alerted for. I would presume that you want to know when the COR stalls or otherwise fails to pump when you didn't intend to turn it off. This can be accomplished with

If Error CORname Then ON


Related to your original point however, AND logic is performed by turning on for one condition and then turning off for the opposite of all other conditions. To perform exactly what you asked for, you would do what is shown below, but the only thing that actually tells you is if you set the COR to manual OFF and forgot about it.

CORoff (VO)
Set OFF
If Output CORname = OFF Then ON
If FeedA 000 Then OFF
If FeedB 000 Then OFF
If FeedC 000 Then OFF

If Output CORoff = ON Then ON

Thank you, and you where correct I wanted the top option but thank you for showing me what I asked for too, that will help later on

@ZombieEngineer

I got one more for you below is a paste of my alarms virtual outlet. I believe everything is working correctly, but after i do a Feed event, I get an alert
"Apex Fusion Alarm"
Status: OFF
Statement: Alarm is off

Why am I getting that alarm?


Set OFF
If Sw2 CLOSED Then ON
If Sw3 CLOSED Then ON
If Sw4 CLOSED Then ON
If Sw5 CLOSED Then ON
If Sw6 CLOSED Then ON
If Output Return_Pump = ON Then ON
If Error Cor_3_1 Then ON
If Power Apex Off 005 Then ON

Either you have the outlet in manual OFF instead of AUTO, or one of your switches is toggling between open and closed very quickly.

Also, I'm pretty sure you want to lose the If Output Return pump line.

At the end of your email Alarm, I would add

Defer 001:00 Then OFF

Then see if it tells you what is actually triggering it. If your feed is tied to one of those switches you have in the email Alarm, you want to remove that switch from the email Alarm.

I also like to add Defer 000:30 Then ON as well, but wait to add that until after you figure out what was triggering your email.
