Request: Code to use single ATO as failsafe
Posted: Thu Dec 17, 2015 5:48 pm
Hello folks,
I am trying to install a single float at the top of the sump (wire side up) and use it to turn port 5 of my only relay off. I currently have a standalone single float ATO plugged to port 5 which keeps the water stable but it has failed me a couple times. If it sticks on the low position it continues to import fresh water. To avoid overflowing the sump and flooding the room, I would like to install a single float at the top so it would stop it from continuing.
Also, which of the 2 connectors from the main controller should I use.
In sum: If single float gets pushed up, then turn OFF port 5.
Thanks in advance!
