Yesterday I had a leak and with that thought in mind I need to get my Leak detect system set up so it shuts off certain pumps. Anyone got the logic handy that they can share?
 
Thanks Ditto.. darn video section had the answer.. had to create 3 PL for my set up.

And incase some other APEX user clicked through to find the same answer about 3/4 down the LDK tutorial, you will find this:

Programming Energy Bar Outputs
Let’s look at an example for turning off an EnergyBar outlet if a leak or water on the floor is detected.

1. Click on the ‘Expand’ Icon
Configure_Icon_DK-90x70.png
and then the ‘Outputs’ Icon
Output_Icon_DK-90x70.png
on your Apex Fusion Dashboard.

2. Click on an EnergyBar outlet you would like to have turn OFF when a leak probe detects water.

Note: Your return pump, ATO pumps, etc. would be a good outputs to have turn OFF if a leak is detected by the probe(s).

3. Switch the ‘Control Type’ to Advanced. You will see the programming window below open for you to add new programming. Add the lines below to it to the end of your current programming.

existing programming
If Swx#_1 CLOSED Then OFF
If Swx#_2 CLOSED Then OFF

Notice in this example we have changed the ending result to ‘OFF’ instead of ‘ON’ like used in the email program. This is because we want this Energy Bar outlet to respond to leaks by turning ‘OFF’.

Add lines for Swx#_3 and/or Swx#_4 if you have additional leak detection probes.
 
btw @AZMSGT was this leak just a boring skimmer overflow or something more exciting to share?
For now, I'll say it was a little more exciting than I would like. I don't want to through a company under the bus and am giving them a chance to fix the problem.
 
Roger that. Your poise is admirable. I've witnessed more than enough vitriol against a few companies. For both your sakes I hope it concludes to your satisfaction. Sorry for the trouble.
