Same thing as the ozone, the apex will control the co2 solenoid based on the effluent pH you set it up for. The only other thing i would suggest getting is called the breakout box. You can hook up 6 electronic float valves or water sensors. Good for controlling ATO, sump levels, flood detection, RODI, etc. I am going to try to pick one up for my Apex along with another EB8 as I have found I ran out of outlets.
Not running Ozone or calcium reactor, have a whole house RO system, lights are controlled by my timer board. Just want to monitor the pH, salinity and temp and if I read it right the PM2 has inputs for float swiches for ATO.
