Does your software allow for flow meters so you can monitor if the water from the filters is flowing and if it is slowing down so they need to be cleaned. The one below is available for less than $5.

Hi Teek, yeah you can connect 4 of those flowmeters, they go on the DC accessory port. In the "Wiring_For_Equipment" manual you'll see how to wire to the green plugs. For the boards you have you will need to put a 10k resistor across the +12v pin and data pin.
