Apologies, been tied up for several days and couldn't spend any time on this issue.
So, I noticed that after I'd wired the pump to the Aqualink RS per earlier posts that I could no longer connect to the system using the mobile app. Upon reconnecting the wires in the RS the app works again. I don't know if this is normal behavior but thought it was interesting since it seems those terminals are the correct place to connect the pump per many in this thread. At this point I'm really left scratching my head on this one.
