Re: PH probe calibration help

I ended up splitting the code for the PH calibration. I have a menu for pH 7.0, and a separate one for pH 10.0. Also, instead of a simple min/max, I use the average of the last 2 reads. The main reason is that the probe value seems to jump around a bit. Partly an accuracy issue. The min/max will cap...

dangerous "do" loops

In a lot of the sub-functions, there are do {} loops that will wait for button presses and so on. For example, PH calibration, feeding mode, light setup, etc. The big danger is if one of the dosing pumps or ATO is on when you enter those modes. It appears that the relays will remain on while in the ...

Re: Bootloader upgrade (optiboot)

Just FYI for all: I have successfully enabled the watchdog timer on my sketch. Running windows, optiboot, no wifi. Very easy. Enabled at setup, and I only needed two places to clear it. One in the main loop in my sketch, and one in the GUI setup loop. I set delay to 1 second. I don't really see any ...

Re: Dosing Pumps

I already have some, but great price! The only issue I see : 0.75ml/m is pretty slow. Drews dosers are 1.6 ml/m, and I had to replace those with bigger ones for my lightly stocked 200G tank. My guess is that 0.75 ml/m is pushing it on a well stocked 50G tank. rygh, they dose at .75ml/ s ;) Ahh, per...

Re: Libraries TODO List

Ok, another un-initialize temp bug. A bit hard to explain though. The default memory values on heater/chiller are -1. (An unfortunate coincidence) There are two values (temp-on, tmp-off) passed into the setup gui for heat/chill. But when the "y" value is -1, "bSingle" gets set, a...

Re: Libraries TODO List

(I hope this is a good thread for minor notes)

Another very minor one:
For StandardHeater, you have a nice check for Temp1 = 0, and return.
But you are missing that check on StandardFan.

Re: Libraries TODO List

Found a minor bug in the setup: When you change the Chiller Temperature down, the number jumps to 999. Going up works fine. Version 8.5.14 Just tested it, doesn't happen on my copy of 0.8.5.14. What is the value for your temperature? Is it the On or the Off temperature option? Does it happen when y...

Need help on hang issue

As mentioned in a different thread, I have a problem where the RA hangs. It can vary from a few hours to a few days. It recovers when I power cycle. I have not tried recovering through USB. It was very reliable until about a week ago. Changes since then: 1) I changed my special communication port co...
