My pleasure John! I've learned quite a bit as well.

Thanks again to Tom and Keith and everyone else who chimed in. I've had
this running a couple of days now and have had to tune and adjust the
696's several times. I've never used a 697 but they look more reliable.
Can anyone confirm that as fact?

I'm also thinking of wiring in the 'Sam' control button in parallel to
the trips for an override when they occasionally stick.
