Ooh I like that Seimens control module, particularly with the live status of the system. I wonder if I can retrofit into my Orenco S1 panel - right now it just has the plain analog on/off timer.
I think at install my pump was set to run for 10 min on the hour of every hour if needed. Lately we’ve been using more water and septic ppl said we can go 15 min on pumps. Nothing longer than that so it gives the fields from being over run. How do I change the setting for pump to run for 15 min instead of the 10? Thanks.
Do you have a video that explains what the numbers mean on the main screen. Mine reads 12 floats up 34 floats down and there is a timer off 12:04 counting up. Thanks
The float numbers match the position, lowest to highest. Your bottom 2 floats in the up position and your top 2 floats in the down position. Your system sounds like a timed dose system and that counter is counting the off time. Your lowest float is a system off float, the 2nd float up is likely the primary control float that tells the system there is wastewater waiting to be delivered to the drainfield. The 3rd float or float 3, is likely an override timer float that when raised will reduce your off time so the system can dose the drainfield more frequently to get the system caught back up. The top float is the alarm.

At the end of all, do you need to put back the terminal link between 3 and 4?
