Re: Salinity temp compensation?

I m using ReefAngel Status to change the value in memory. I have Alpha placed in memory location 3 and when i read the value in location 3 it gets the correct value I changed it to. Do you think it might differ if i print on the screen InternalMemory.Alpha_read(); this is part of my custom memory lo...

Re: ReefAngel Status

is it possible in the coming update to add an option to the application to be able to save custom memory location to the list of memory locations already available. It would be great to be able to save the memory location number, its type int or byte and its name.

Re: Salinity temp compensation?

I think its also better to define the constant Alpha in memory to make it easier to tune using wifi if needed cause I think it might differ a bit from a person to the other depending on the probe, salinity and Temperature. So adding it to memory would make it a lot easier than having to change the c...

Salinity Calibration

If i want to calibrate my salinity module at a higher salinity that my tank is currently at, which is around 37 do I just change this

Params.Salinity=map(Params.Salinity, 0, SalMax, 60, 350);

to this

Params.Salinity=map(Params.Salinity, 0, SalMax, 60, 370);

So the only difference between the old temperature compensation code and this one is that the compensation is applied to the ADC values instead of the ppt values?

Re: Wifi Periodically Stops Responding

I just did set the sleep timer to 3600s and the wake timer to 1s, i ll test and see.

I've noticed while checking the module's settings using "get e" command something called "BCAST=255.255.255.255:55555"

what does it represent?
