Why does my Apex alarm keep going
off. All it says is alarm is on alarm is off. I have no idea what alarm this is and why it’s going off

My ATO did that all the time when I installed it. I pulled the orange tube out of the float unit and let it hang over the tank and it fixed it. Im sure theres another fix that makes it work together, but I am not spending any additional time trying to fix it.
 
The 3 indicators are just reminders for cleaning things out
As far as the alarm it stopped for now.I just wish I k ew what it was for
I love my Apex def. don’t want to sell
 
You have to put the slider from “On” to “Auto“

Yes, it was on auto I think I figured this one out. A faulty float sensor in my saltwater container. Cut out and put another one while doing this I was able to mimic the alarm with the new one
 
I do with the alarms OFF notifications were more descriptive. I've had a similar problem too.
 
One of your optical sensors, leak sensors, or float switches might be rapidly toggling on and off so quickly that the Apex doesn't have time to send the initial Alarm On message which would include the description of the device causing it before it sends the Alarm Off message. Add this line to your EmailAlm program to force the alarm to stay active long enough to send the Alarm On notification:

Min Time 000:30 Then ON

Once you identify the source of the problem, you can investigate to see if it needs cleaning or some other issue.
