The description says this has an adjustable run time from 5-45 seconds after the water level falls below the sensor. How do you adjust the run time?

Honestly I didn't know that was an option. I really don't think there is one. I am currently at work and will try to remember to look when I get home. I assumed the alarm was preset and/or just went off when levels exceeded above normal levels.

There is a small set screw inside the battery compartment, it is very sensative, use very small turns to set time

Take battery door off, there is a small knob in there. Use a small screwdriver. The seconds are not marked off. Just have to estimate.

I've never run mine continuously more than a few minutes at a time and then I give it a rest of a few minutes in between runs. You probably should contact the manufacturer .

I test it occasionally by dipping the sensor/lead in water. The alarm sounds. I remove the sensor/lead from the water after a short time, and the alarm silences within a few additional seconds. It seems as if the sensor/lead is rather hydrophobic, so it rapidly ceases signaling when the water is no longer in contact with the sensor. I like that feature.

Hi there. Because of flow restriction (severe) I only used this a couple of times and then gave it away. Since it is a spring-wound timer, anything less than 15 minutes would be iffy, and during the last couple of minutes it would begin to shut off the water even more.

Top button on the left side of meter is on off. Wait until On shows on screen, then press bottom button, wait for count down then dip strip quickly in water, then place in meter. Easy peasy. Hope this helps.

Make sure you hit the small tabs on the right 4 times each time you hit it , it gives you so many minutes. When you hit it four times it runs untill it is out of water, if not then return it.

Time duration is not adjustable. It says on for about 30 seconds after any motion has stopped.

Sorry, cannot help, I have not reached the end of the run time yet. I use it about 15 min a night only, tho.

Is the timer set to a 5 second run time? You should be able to change the run time. If you cannot change the run time then return to Moultrie or contact their customer service department. I have had very good luck with their customer service.

Try this: Remove cover, empty out all the water and then fill it with fresh water. If that doesn't work, then try this: unplug it, remove cover, inside you will see sensor (it sticks up a little with a silver metal on top) touch the sensor with your finger. For some reason this works. I think the sensor gets stuck "thinking" the water level is low, so the unit doesn't go on.

There are 5 settings for Timer control,they go as follows.1.Unit works continuously. Automatically stops when water level drops too low.2. Unit works continuously for 2 hours and will automatically stop.3. Unit disperses for 5 seconds and rests for 40 seconds.4. Unit disperses for 15 seconds and rests for 50 seconds.5. Unit disperses for 30 minutes and rests for 15 minutes.

Also put a little dob of Vaseline on the rubber washer at the bottom of the water tank. Makes a heap of difference to the running.

The available settings for the motion sensor are: 5 minutes, 10 minutes, 30 minutes, 60 minutes or Off.

These sensors have only been tested with water. The drip time is approximately 6 to 10 hours per water sensor.

I think it's supposed to run at least 8 hrs to get the whole pool. I have an in ground 14x28. Try moving the inlet jets a little, to change the flow if the water a bit....that might help

Does it run for 2 seconds and then stop? Or it doesn't run at all. Make sure you fill it enough so the sensor doesn't automatically shut it off. Also don't fill it up too much otherwise it will spill over damaging the unit.

It doesn't have a timer, it runs until it's out of water (auto shut-off) or you unplug it. Mine typically goes for about 4 hours on high, about 6 on medium and 10 on low.
