Please Review My Alarm Statements

[Scott07]

I lost power to the tank last night due to a tripped gfci. When I restored power this morning I recieved text alerts about low temp, as I'd expect, but not a power loss statement.... which really has me scratching my head. Could someone please review my very simple alarm statements and let me know what's wrong? Thank you!!!

Set OFF
If Temp > 80.9 Then ON
If Temp < 78.1 Then ON
If Power Apex Off 000 Then ON

Im am trying to remember but I don't think it sends a power loss text. Thats what the heartbeat is for. Have you enabled it?

You need to use 001 instead of 000 in the If Power Apex line. That keeps the statement true for 1 minute after power is restored and the Apex boots up.

Would it kick out the alarm when power is shut off? Or only once it reboots back up?

Power Apex won't work unless you have UPS backup.
I use If Power EB832_2 Off 001 Then ON.

Which will tell you if your outlet is unplugged or something going on.
