My first time setting anything up on the robotank I got last week and frankly this is not looking good already.
Setup an ATO for sensor 1. Using an optical I got here and set the jumper to optical.
- With no sensor module even attached, it turns on the pump till it hits the alert time and then disables ATO. This looks like an oversight in the application.
- Sometimes with no sensor it will turn on for a bit, turn off, repeat.
- With the sensor module connected, pump never turns on.
Setup using a non-contact, moved the jumper to NC.
- Sensor works, light comes on when sensing water and off when away. Pump never turns on.
I did just set to sensor with a PU and shorting gnd and data does work.
Should the optical have a prism? The one I got here is flat on the end.
Also, the non-contact is XKC-Y25-V but wasnt from here. It says Brown 5-24v, Yellow OUT, Blue GND, Black M. On the connector side from left to right as it plugs into the sensor bar, its Brown Yellow Blue Black.
Is there anywhere I can see logging of sensor status? Nothing in log or errors.
