Re: General Bus Unreliability
Try adding ferrite cores/chokes to one or both ends of your USB cables. Start with the end closest to the controller as opposed to the end closest to the expansion. Cables can act like antennas and transmit any stray RF fields right into your controller, Particularly the longer wires. Many Aquarium ...

Re: Bus Lock Issue
The bus lock only happens on reprogrammable modules and only on certain systems. I'm unable to get it to replicate anywhere with any of the systems I have tried. That's why it is really hard to troubleshoot it. I have revised the I/O module to a non-programmable version. PM me to replace your I/O m...

Re: Bus Lock Issue
I STILL am not using my IO module due to bus lock issues. Can\has ANYTHING on a software\hardware level (even a hardware mod) ever been done to a controller\module to resolve or at least work around this chronic issue? I have had my RA for about two years now and it seems there are still bus lock is...

Re: Buzzer on while ATO pump relay is active
I do not see another override for port 2 or 7 except for in waterchange mode... Full code is here. Way down at the bottom. Version 109.

Re: Buzzer on while ATO pump relay is active
yes 4 to 8 seconds for a top off is not uncommon. my low and high float water levels are really close together in my sump. normally (no water needed state) my float switches sit at ATO Low = Off & ATO High = 0n If I remove 1/4 cup of water (with a measuring cup) from my sump my ATO High switch c...

Re: Buzzer on while ATO pump relay is active
So my ATO is acting funny still after all. 1.ATO float switch triggers top off 2.correct pump starts to pump for ATO. 3.Buzzer does it's thing to warn me it's topping up. 4.about 4 seconds into the topoff the pump shuts down and the buzzer stop. 5. 35 seconds later my ATO times out.

Re: Auto top off using Salinity Control Module
I have my ATO supply pump selected by salinity reading from the probe. If under x then ATO with SW of over X then ATO with RO/DI. I am NOT using the salinity measurement to tell the ATO when to STOP PUMPING. I am still using the ATO float switches for that. Just using the probe and switching back an...

The ATO selection code I am working with for now is as follows //*****Begin ATO By Salinity Additions if (ReefAngel.Params.Salinity<300)//if salinity is low switch to Saltwater ATO { ReefAngel.StandardATO(Port7,40 );//ATO Port is now Saltwater ...

I'm not a programmer so this is might be rough way to ask this question not knowing the proper lingo but here goes. I would like to enter the same set of statements within an "if" based on whether either of two variables have changed in my last loop? The best way I can think of to lay this...

ahh ok. it sounds like if I do call ShowInterface() in the setup it wont matter unless I also initialize all of the "hidden variables" I need initialized before the ShowInterface().

I will give that a try. That makes total sense.

Re: Buzzer on while ATO pump relay is active
Can you post the piece of your code that does the ATO? It is only the very first run of loop that you don't have things initialized. The function that reads everything is ShowInterface(). So, in the very first pass, everything is zero. Here is my entire code... A bit long... But I have been trying ...

Yes you can do ReefAngel.Relay.Status(Port2); which will return 0 (off) or 1 (on). You could even be clever and do this Alert=ReefAngel.Relay.Status(Port2)*25; If the status is 1 alert will be 25 and if staus is 0 alert will be 0 :) Lee Sweet!
