Glad my code helped someone besides me

For the record, you also could have

1) flipped the switch around

Or

2) take off the c-clip, flip floating magnet around, but back on c-clip

And you would have achieved the same result. Personally, I like the software mechanism.

uffa - I never thought of that I could have saved us all allot of posts - but hey the positive side is I learned more about codes and it was a challenge solved!

Hey on another note - I saw on 'mr saltwater' tank the other day their was a new ATO unit that worked off of temperature probes. It got me thinking how we can use the temp probe on the RA unit in to detect water level and eventually we can get rid of the floats all together and use the RA probes to gauge water levels.

Here is the link http://www.mrsaltwatertank.com/mr-saltw ... expo-2013/

pretty interesting

And there is a multi water level sensor being released!!!

I had a circumstance where the low water cutoff was needed but unfortunately it did not work - I tested the float back to the original code and it worked fine. I than reverted back to the reverse code and tried flipping the float but that wouldn't work in the flipped mode unless the water was low. meaning if the water was at operating level the pump would stay off. The red light just bugs me.

Don't do both. YOu should leave the reverse code and change the logic for turning off the return by putting a ! or removing the ! in front of the LowATO.isActive(); function. Sounds like you keep doing two things at once.
