if you look up in the post I asked the same question and binder said instead to reserve the address it grabbed instead of using a static ip. I never did find a way to assign a static ip to the wifi device. thx The ip to my wi-fi changed all the time, so I reserved an address for it using its MAC ad...

Finally figured it out, now how do i give my attachment a static ip address (i think thats what i want, so it doesnt change?)

Edit: Ok i reserved a dhcp lease, but there is not an unlimited setting, for now i picked 365 days

Edit: changed it to a bunch of 99999s so i should be good!

now im even more confused. I use the address in the above link for my IP instead of the one I saw in the wi-fi utility setup? It was a 10. in the wi-fi utility. Also my airport utilty looks different than the one in the link above. Do I do a DHCP reservation? or Enable NAT Port mapping protocol? I a...

great, thanks!

it is a 10.

I guess I need to check out the firewall settings on my router (its an apple time capsule router).

I went through the set up and everything looked good (slow blinking green light). But I entered the IP address I saw when setting up (from "view wi-fi settings" on the wi-fi utility). But, when I go to the portal to enter my IP it does not connect ("unreachable"). Not sure if I s...

I am unable to open the wi-fi utiity. "unable to find version of run time for this application." I have recently updated the .net framework. any ideas?

What is a safe storage temp for the controller and accessories? I was thinking of setting this all up in my garage, which will get fairly hot in the summer. My tank is in a room that shares a wall with my garage so I have some plumbing through the wall and I keep a lot of my tank stuff there.

Thanks everyone for your help! I just got my controller in, hopefully I will be able to set it up this weekend!

Dimming port lead wire. Your dimming effects will be limited though because you only have two drivers.

I ordered two extra temp probes with the controller (for a total of 3) is there anything I need to program to allow this?

great, thanks! I dont have my controller yet, I'm just trying to build my code so when it comes in it will be ready to go. It looks like you have a two week lead time listed on the site so hopefully I'll receive the controller sometime within the next week. I really appreciate your help, both Robert...

I plan on reverse daylight cycle for fuge lights, but I dont think that inverse code above will work because my daylight ports will be always on. I guess I could use standard lights for the fuge lights and use that time?

For moonlights, Id like to do 2 hours before and after daylights.

Port 3 will be my "high noon" lights, I run some xmls at 1.75 amps and dont want them on very long (at some point I will grab a dimmable driver for these too (up to 2.3 amps) which could make for some great lightining effects I think). I plan on running these from about 2-5 Port 4 will be ...

For the doser, try this: Replace this: ReefAngel.DosingPump1(Port6); With this: if (hour()>=1 && hour()<=7) ReefAngel.Relay.Set(Port6,(elapsedSecsToday(now())%3600)<600); Can you explain the above code to me? I understand the 1am to 7am part, but the last line doesnt make sense.

Oh that makes sense. So I guess I can't use that code above for the moonlights and fuge lights because the main light ports are always on. So how can I simply input a time for certain ports to come on and off?

I am using ports 1 and 2 for standard lights (1 on the longest so I'll use that one to compare to daylights being on for the inverse cycle). How does the controller know that 1 and 2 are the main lights, for the purpose of pwm dimming? I plan on doing port 3 for just 3 hours during the day for a hig...

Wow, yall are great!

Also how do I configure the dosing pump, I would like to run it for 10 mintues at a time once an hour from 1am to 7 am. This is my IM file // Autogenerated file by RAGen (v1.2.1.158), (03/11/2012 10:09) // Memory_031112_1009.ino // // This file sets the default values to the Internal Memory // #incl...

The only thing I changed is the PWM slope and it has errors now, I intended them to come on at 10 and 11 and have a 2 hours slope and turn up from 15% to 55% and turn off at 9 and 10, but not sure if thats what I did. So how does it know which ports to use the PWM slope on? And how do I chage the &q...

Not sure if it matters, but I dont have my controller yet. I was just trying to figure out the code so I will be ready to go when it gets here. I ordered it a week ago so hopefully another week or so until I get it (the store said 2 week lead time)

Ok, I uninstalled and reinstalled everything and maybe this file is better? How do I add options for moonlights, fuge light (I have 4 light plugs below, 2 for leds, one for moonlight and one for fuge light, I guess I need to add one more for an additional daytime light too (high noon powerful leds))...

not sure what went wrong and why this file is so big, but this is my internal memory file with errors // Autogenerated file by RAGen (v1.1.0.126), (03/10/2012 07:08) // Memory_031012_0708.pde // // This file sets the default values to the Internal Memory // #include <ReefAngel_Features.h> #include <...

oh, just watched the youtube video again. I was trying to open the file from a different location (file, open), will try again when I can get to it.

Where is that file located? I cant find it in the arduino controllers

My internal memory is not being written to he arduino software when I generate. When I click generate on the intrnal memory it asks me to save and I click yes. Then I go to the PDE file and click generate and it asks to save and then to launch.

great, thanks for your help!

Hopefully my 8 month old will allow me to mess with this for a few hours on saturday...wish me luck!

Thanks, is there a reason that it is not a separate tab like I see in the demo? When I generate a PDE file from the software, none of the values (from the internal memory) appear to come over into the Ardinuo software.

Also I dont see anywhere that I can enter the PWM slopes.

I just opened it again and now it has two tabs: features and PDE, no internal memory. Is this because I dont have the controller yet? Can I still generate code with?

I installed RAGen, but it looks different. The tabs that I have are controller, features and main relay. I do not have the internal memory tab.
