Reef Angel Forum

interested - I see the cloud attachment doesn't need the port forwarding either - Is that an option too?

The portal says 'unreachable address' I am not at home to verify if toggling switches works

Thanks - ironically I just got and email alert from the RA - so it must be communicating.

Next question is how come I cannot see in the portal?

Hi all I had wifi connected for many years with no issues until a month or so ago it stopped working - There have been no changes here of services and I tried re doing the wifi set up and uploading the the wizard - I cant seem to get it to read ont he portal. admitedly I am not a computer coder - I ...

Thanks for the help. After going back and forth between optimum and Linksys - the issue is finally resolved. For help to future forum users - This is how I solved it. 1. Optimum closes port 80 - you need to open port 80 on there site. 2. Linksys does not allow internal (private) ip addresses assigne...

SO apparently my ISP only opens port 80. Can you point me in the right direction on how to have the RA goes from 2000 to 80?

I dont see the blocks in the firewall of the router. I sent you a screenshot via email - couldnt paste it here. Thanks

Hi - I have a Arris modem and a separate router. I was finally able to get a hold of a knowledgeable person an cable provider. They said the modem is set up as a bridge and the router sets the ports. The screen shot I sent in last weeks email was from the router. What is weird is I could operate the...

Hi Roberto, I have been out of the hobby for about 2 years, getting back in - trying to re establish wifi connection to my router. I followed the instructions, used the wifi utility application and the wizard. (as well as my old working code) but I cant seem to connect. I get a slow blinking green l...

Can someone point me in the right direction? I am trying to upload into the RA Plus controller and get the 'serial port com0 not found. I used ra wizard and direct copy from previous working codes - No luck - It is a new laptop - windows 10 - When I goto Tools>Serial Port - it is greyed out and I ca...

when i try to access on iphone i get "html status timeout" and when the last update on the portal was 8/3/15. My wifi app shows the RA is connected.

Is there a troubleshooting guide or a reset on the wifi?

I was wondering if anyone was familiar with the bridgelux light and controller as follows: http://www.aquastyleonline.com/products/84-Bridgelux-LED-Controller-DIY-kit.html If so, is this something that can be controlled with the RA? Also, thoughts on light it self. I have done several DIY through aq...

Hi, I am considering getting the it2080 led fixture and i need advice before i decide. I like the fixture but i am concerned that i lose the ability to control the light patterns with the RA+. I did read about 'shorting' the controller but dont really understand it. Can someone with experience with ...

Uffa! - Would you please be able to email me the details involved, length of time, shipping, etc. and anything else you feel would be pertinent? (I am assuming you have my contact info from my screen name).

Thanks

Thanks for reply Roberto, Same behavior...nothing happens. I also tried switching the connections, to no avail. The pins on the left are my low water cutoff for the main pump and the pins to the right are my hi water cut off for my skimmer cup. The pins on the right works fine so I tried switching t...

My low water cut off has been working fine since 2012 but recently has stopped working. I tried replacing the float as well as connecting the two wires to simulate contact but the RA doesn't seem to be kicking the main pump off. I haven't changed the code since it was entered in 2012 - any thoughts?

I found a simple code on the site if any one needs it:

if(ReefAngel.HighATO.IsActive())
{
ReefAngel.Relay.Off(Port2);
}
else
{
ReefAngel.Relay.On(Port2);
}

Thanks Lee, Nice write up and great stuff but I just don't get coding - I can try to cut and paste your codes into mine but I still don't get coding and don't know if I am doing it right. I have the system working the way I want it and I just wanted to add a high water cut off code to existing code ...

True, but I bought this controller to eliminate all the diy and wall warts, etc. I would like to expand the use of controller with all the add ons but I just cant grasp the coding aspect of the controller which makes it frustrating. I tried re coding it and each time I compile I get a different error.

Another, possible, option would be to flip the float around. Remove the clip on the ATO, flip the float over and put the clip back on. that may work the way you want it to. +1 - I tried doing it thru the code - didn't work for me but than again I am a novice - I did the above worked like a charm. I...

I would like to add a high water cutoff to my skimmate collection tank to prevent overflows. Can someone please verify the following code is correct. I am not a wiz at coding I tried to copy a LW cutoff code given I currently have. but it doesn't seem to be working. My skimmer is on Port 1. I am not...

I had client suite working fine for a few years with no issues but now I am having trouble opening it on my computer - In the 'community' downloads their is RA status and RA client suite 3.01. What the difference? Do I need 1 or both to view? (I don't have a wifi attachment if it matters) Also, I tr...

Thanks Inevo, When I reconnect it ph reads 8.4 on RA and test kit. It is an inline chiller that has water pumped to it and than it returns to return piping. What is interesting though is when I shut all electronics off pumps and lighting last night the ph did not change.

I read last night that the ground in the chiller may be acting as a grounding rod and when its unplugged the stray voltage from else where may be acting up. But their are no signs with a multimeter so I went an systematically shut down every piece of equipment except the RA to verify the PH but no c...

I disconnected my chiller this week for the winter and my ph probe readings dropped in half. I checked the tank with multimeter and read 0, stumped......I have heard of stray voltage and disconnecting a bad pump to correct issue but I never heard of bad readings from disconnecting a piece of equipme...

Thanks - I'll try 2&3 if that doesn't work I will have to purchase the wifi module thanks

I was trying to check on my DT thru the portal earlier this week but kept getting unreachable address. I have my controller connected to the computer with the usb cable. usually works fine when computer is in use but my computer goes into sleep mode when not in use and doesn't send signal to portal....

I had a circumstance where the low water cutoff was needed but unfortunately it did not work - I tested the float back to the original code and it worked fine. I than reverted back to the reverse code and tried flipping the float but that wouldn't work in the flipped mode unless the water was low. m...

Should I try re calibrating? not sure because most of the time it reads correctly. any thoughts?

Hi all - I have been getting emails from RA client stating my PH is at 4.84 or other various numbers but when I go to the head unit or RA client the chart or the grid never actually records that number. Also when I use my test kit it is around 8.2.
