Hello,

To the point, I have 2 EB832 plugged into two different gfi outlets. I have a eb4 plugged into non gfi outlet. I want the eb4 to turn off all outlets if either eb832 loses power (due to gfi trip). Is this possible? I was going to do if watts less than command but if the eb832 is unplugged from power I don’t think that would work. Can the apex brain still “see” the eb832 if it loses power but the brain still has power from a different eb832 or eb4?

I got this far, can I do something like if eb832 no power then off E4FDF044-5417-4173-8D96-3B237B66A3FE.png
 
Add these lines to each output on the EB4:

If Power EB832_1 Off 000 Then OFF
If Power EB832_2 Off 000 Then OFF

Substitute the actual names of your EB832 modules.

Thank you so much!

One more thing, with the EB4 can you set to turn off outlets if power draw for entire eb4 exceeds certain amount? I know it only monitors power for the entire unit which is fine, I would like it to turn off outlet if entire power draw is above x watts. Or is this only on eb832

Unfortunately, the Amp meter on the EB4, EB6, or EB8 cannot be used in Apex programming. It only provides the reading on a dashboard tile, or in a graph. Only EB832 and EB632 can be used for power monitoring in program code.
