Thank you. I thought it would be that easy but wanted to make sure before I did anything.

So I just bought a house and now have the room for a sump room in the basement. Since I have hardwood floors this will make it easier for me since I won't have to carry buckets of water around and risk damaging the wood floors with saltwater. My questions is, is it possible to have one relay box on ...

Gugs Jr, My tank is also plugged in to the same circuit as one of the kitchen outlets. However it isn't the same as the appliances. I just ignored it for now... Everything I read said it isn't to much of an issue unless you ground the tank, then the voltage has somewhere to go. Wasn't exactly the a...

Anyone have any luck figuring this out?

That's so weird. When people have stray voltage problems, the pH probe gets wacky readings. What do you get if you measure your Neutral and Ground in the wall outlet? My pH readings are fine and Im still having this issue. Same as meadows even when everything is unplugged. Im in an apartment as wel...

I'm following along since I'm having the same issues. I've lost a few fish to ich and it only happened after installing my RA and noticing the stray voltage.

I'm thinking the stray voltage is enough to cause the ich to appear. Since I've had most of the fish I've lost for over 2 years.

Mine was my LEDs with Meanwell ELN 60-48P drivers. None of the cords was touching the tank, the outlet was not going through the relay box, just the driver signal from my PWM port on the relay box. Unplugged it and it went away. I have since moved it to a dimming expansion model, but haven't had ti...

So this weekend I tried unplugging every item one at a time and there was still a small shock. I'm going to try again with a multi-meter to try and pin point what could be causing it.

The pH probe will complete a circuit for stray voltage coming from another device. You say you don't have it with feed mode? What pumps turn off with feed mode? Check those devices for voltage leaks. --Colin Ok, I just tested the LEDs and they weren't the cause of it. The ones that turn off are my ...

The lights go off? JK :lol: Yes, from the relay box. My suspicion is that you are getting this stray voltage from your LED drivers. Well I didn't have time to play around with different scenarios since I got stuck at work. I did find out that if I use my android app to run the feed mode timer it di...

The lights go off? JK

you mean from the dimmable port or from the relays. I wouldn't be able to test this until I get off of work.

It does stop the voltage leak when I disconnect the pH probe. Its fine after I reconnect them after about 30 - 60 minutes.

Do you have LED drivers?

I do . I'm using: 4 Mean Well ELN-60-48P dimmable driver

So it seems after I use the feed more timer on the RA, my pH probe shocks my tank.

After I disconnect for about 30 minutes or so I can plug it back in with no voltage going into the tank.

Any way to fix this?

ok. well i was researching what ports needed to be open on your router for it but i have not had enough time today with my work schedule. i will say this, whatever ip camera you get (wired or wireless), you will want to look and see what tcp or udp port needs to be open on your router for you to ga...

it is wireless, so no computer is needed to use it. i do have a couple questions. 1. can you connect to it outside of your home network? like if you use your phone while at work or somewhere else? 2. i am assuming that your ra controller works with the portal and you can communicate with it. if thi...

I don't see anything in the log for this username :( The only thing I can think of is somehow the settings are messed up in the wifi attachment if you can communicate with it using the android app. Try following this post to see if it helps: http://forum.reefangel.com/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=4601 T...

Not sure what else to try or what else I can do. They show up when I scroll through the Reef Angel itself. Just every where but the portal

Can I attach a netcam to the reef portal? Or does it have to be a webcam? I purchased Belkin - NetCam HD+ Wireless Networking IP Camera Model: F7D7606 and I'm not able to get it to show up in the portal because I can't find the web address for it. Its up and running I can use my Android App log in t...

I have the Dip switches in side the Relay Expansion Module set to ID1 (all off), I tried setting it up to ID2 and it wouldn't communicate with the expansion relay.

You have to add the signature as an image. Most forums will not allow you to put images in your signature because if everyone did that it would place to much of a load on the servers. Yes rebooted the RA Plus. Does the RA reboot after you upload new code? I've tried unplugging it and plugging it ba...

3) I can't get my banner to update. It should be as easy as choosing the banner you want from the Web Banners tab in the Portal then copying the code from there and pasting it into you signature. Says I don't have permission to add URLs to my signature on this site. Not working on any other site 1)...

Thank you that worked

Use the dimming ports on the main relay box. Does the pump on 5 work if you plug it into another outlet? Does port 7 turn on and off like it's supposed to, even though 5 isn't coming on? Can you toggle port 5 from the Android app and have it turn on? There is also a ControllerTester sketch under th...

So I setup my Reef Angel and most of it is working I'm just have 4 issues I was hoping to get help with. 1) My Relay Expansion is not showing up on the RA Portal, it is showing up on my Android App though. 2) I setup ports 5 and 6 on the main relay box to random my power heads from 60 to 120, then p...
