Apex ato

I don't really see a complete ATO there. It looks more like some float switches. Where did you get that from?
How are you wanting to utilize your apex? You can turn the outlet on and off, but in order for the apex to see and recognize the float switches, or any type of switch for that matter you need to add a break out box. The switches connect through the break out box so the apex can then be programmed based on the state of the switches. Then its a matter of a simple if/then statement.

If Switch1 OPEN Then ON.

Or something like that depending on how its completely hooked up and configured.

Page 84 explains break out boxes and continues on to programming.


Looking closer at your pic it looks like you have the correct plug for the breakout box. So i'm guessing someone just bypassed making the entire box and used a couple channels off of that cable to hook the switches to. If thats the case, just figure out which channels they are on (1-6) based on what pin they are wired to and programming accordingly.





Here is my programming.


Fallback OFF

Set OFF

OSC 000:00/010:00/050:00 Then ON

If Switch1 OPEN Then OFF

Defer 000:20 Then ON


As you can see the main trigger on mine is actually not on the float switch, but an OSC function. It turns on for 10 minutes every hour. But if it sees the full level switch triggered it doesn't run. This is a failsafe incase the switch sticks- and it has-. The pump won't run continuously.


the defer statement is for fluctuations while filling. Once it switches off or on, it won't change states for 2 minutes. This keeps the pump from rapidly kicking on and off because of waves etc.
