:( i am trying to get my level sensor to activate my pump for top up tank.
but every time i set up the program,it is always blocking the program.
what is the best way to do this.
what is the difference between level 1& level 2 in setting it up.
all advice welcome.(i am using only one sensor in sump)
cheers

you need to add 2 programs one to turn something on when it hits level2 and then another program to turn it off again when it hits level1

Are you sure - my program just activates the pump when it is at level 2 - doesnt need a separate program to turn off the socket (as default is off).

Well at least it seems to work!

I just followed the manual.

You dont, It assumes off with no programs, so if you set it to turn something on when it reaches a level it will but as soon as the level goes back to normal it will switch it off again.

THe problem you are having with it locking out is because you are setting the max time too low. What this does is if the program runs for more than the max time it turns the brogram off and blocks it from running again untill you unblock it.
