RA turning relay ports on automatically (when it shouldn't)

Hey all. I turned off my protein skimmer yesterday, planned to leave it off for a few days, so I opened the Android app and turned off the port. A few hours later, i stirred up the tank, and turned it back on to clear it up, and turned it off again a couple of hours later (8:38PM). At 4:48AM this mo...

Re: Upgraded to 1.1.0 library and previous sketch now too bi

No, it's not a fluke. That's the trade off on the standard RA. It has very limited memory and it costs less. The problem is that the wifi codeset that just keeps increasing as we add more and more features. If you remove the wifi, you will see how drastically your code will shrink. Maybe we ought t...

Upgraded to 1.1.0 library and previous sketch now too big

Hello all, I was about to upload a slightly different sketch than my previous one (only change was parabola max 70% instead of 100%), and was notified of new libraries. So, I updated, compiled, and saved it to my laptop for programming since my RA is not near my desktop. Updated libraries on the lap...

LCD randomly starts flashing (and won't update portal)

Hello all, I noticed an issue a few weeks ago where the LCD screen on my RA just starts flashing colors, mostly white. When it does this, all relay and timing functions still work as they are coded to, but the portal will not be updated. I'll try and get a video of the screen today, if it starts it ...

Re: PWM to Analog

Well, sat down to make that change and... no dice. Wired it exactly like yours above (mine is different since it is prewired, but I used a multimeter to confirm continuity. Tried it with two different wires and two different Tunzes, and both had no change in their speed (controller is currently at 6...

Re: PWM to Analog

Ok, just checking on that.

Do you know which pins the Tunze cable for the RA uses?

Re: PWM to Analog

Do you think that the PCB could be properly labelled, and it was already set to Analog?

Re: PWM to Analog

Ok, so I have the jumpers set to 2/3 on both of the sets of pins. I have the code inserted in my RA to control both channels, and I'm measuring the voltage change as the RA sends out the 0-10v signals, but the powerheads are not responding. I thought maybe my wiring was backwards (pins 4 and 5 on th...

Re: Sketch too big...

Gotcha, just didn't expect that to throw it overboard on the size. Ok, so if I want to run only Reef Crest mode, then I need to put this: ReefAngel.PWM.SetDaylight( ReefCrestMode(70,30,true) ); // ReefCrest at 70% +/- 30% on sync mode ReefAngel.PWM.SetActinic( ReefCrestMode(70,30,false) ); // ReefCr...

Sketch too big...

So I have the standard RA, with the Salinity expansion, Wifi attachment, and switched my relay box to send a 0-10v signal to control my two Tunze powerheads. Here is my code: #include <ReefAngel_Features.h> #include <Globals.h> #include <RA_Wifi.h> #include <Wire.h> #include <OneWire.h> #include <Ti...

Of course, but I'd imagine only 8.1 will be sold going forward.

Re: PWM to Analog

Yes, the label is actually wrong. Should be PWM/Analog. So, if you move them to 2-3, you will change the signal to analog. AWESOME! So do all RA now have this and future users don't have to choose between the PWM/0-10v? I'm so happy - now I can control my two Tunzes directly and get rid of my contr...

PWM to Analog

Hello all, I have a PWM RA. My relay box has the jumper inside to switch Analog/PWM, like this: http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y189/jedimasterben/Aminals/Fishies/Shallow%20reef%20system/2013_08_03__22_49_44.jpg (that's where the jumpers started off at) I don't believe that the PWM has the extra ci...
