yes I do love the unifi management software. I don't have the security gateway... i run my own custom router based on pfsense.

suuurreee she doesn't watch much tv. that's like my wife saying she's not on her phone a lot on Facebook. haha :laugh:

I second the Ubiquity option. I got tired of the crappy consumer wifi options as well. I run the original UAP (wifi bgn) for my wifi that my RA connects to and I run a UAP Pro at home. I have Cat 6 hardwire everywhere as well. I haven't made the plunge to AC version... trying to let all the standard...

congrats with the baby on the way!

yeah, time does fly when you are having fun. I'm sure you will figure out your issue with the wifi module and all.

nice job!

The fan will turn on at 25.8 and continue to run until temperature lowers to 25.5. it will not turn on again until the temperature increases to 25.8 again. So there can be a 0.3 degree fluctuation of temperature.

very interesting. pretty neat idea and should be helpful for people.

It's been in the libraries for a long time, but none of the apps will allow you to override the %. if you are referring to the 16ch dimming module, my android app supports it and allows for overriding the %. if you are talking about something else, then you are probably right.

Cool, glad to see it used :) Yeah, that's probably a good catch. I don't know if my issue, but I know there was a bug somewhere. Plus I was using it for controlling a mixing pump so I was definitely working with values up to and over 12 hours at a time... well, the issue would be if you were using ...

I've been working on extending this class for a DosingPump class extending this class. One thing I noticed was that the StartTime and StopTime were INT variables and not double's. This "can" pose a problem if you have a runtime in seconds greater than 9 hours. This "should" not e...

i was going to work on creating a dosing pump class that extended your class but it sounds like you already have done that based on your other post.

The dynamic DNS allows you to control via the universal app? However, the data on the universal app is still correct? Yes it should be. I'm not sure you will need to use the dynamic dns with the universal app. I was sharing it in case you needed it (since you had been using the reefangel dynamic dn...

here's an alternate way to do the dynamic dns for your controller.

Can you post some full code of this in use? I know you broke out different sections, but seeing a larger/complete code inside the loop() will help me get a better understanding of how you intended the functions to be called. (you don't need to include your entire loop(), just the relevant parts rela...

I had forgotten about the main Dosing functions. They allow you to run a port/dosing pump for so many seconds at a specified time of day. So you could say run Port1 for 300 seconds at 8:30am.

yes, when you use the Override function, it ignores the feed and water change settings. in fact, it ignores all programmed settings and uses whatever setting is overridden with.

just re-read your original question, my answer is only part right. you need to have a more complex if statement with other clauses to get your full answer. the way your code is, the float switch controls the port.

the On function overrides the DelayedOn function. you should remove the DelayedOn call right before the if statement. then I would replace the On with DelayedOn. the way your statement reads is if the condition is true it's on, otherwise it's off. you want it to be DelayedOn if it's going to be on. ...

Have you looked at the DelayedOn() function in the libraries? That would be my suggestion on where to start. (I have not read/looked through your code you posted yet. I just wanted to give you a reference place to start first.)

Earlier today, it was posted that Reef-A-Palooza will be coming to Chicago in October 2019. Chicago is being added as the 4th location. I don't know about any of you guys, but I'm excited about it. I just told my wife about it tonight and she was on board with us going up there for the weekend as a ...

Then the rest is just kinda math and calling out What's already been created. I realize there is way more behind the scenes when I opened lib. On dropbox Lol Is the wave pattern topic up todate I was trying to find that info on drop box but must have missed it I wanna try to take a crack at adaptin...

yeah, you got the right idea (and yes, if you use proper capitalization and formatting)

libraries would help me understand more on my own?

yes, looking at the libraries will (or should) help you understand better. if you can understand the code and how things function, it could benefit you.

Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk

There's not really a section or manual that spells out what all the functions are and how to use them or what they mean. The data is scattered throughout the forum and it ultimately lies inside the libraries. I think there was an effort to do this a while back but I do not know off hand if anything ...

what do i need to add/remove to have port 3 turn on when dimming add-on channel 0 is grater then 0% and and off if at 0% This should work for the standard PWM expansion device (with 6 channels) You would need something like this inside your loop() section: if (ReefAngel.PWM.GetChannelValue(0) > 0) ...

Exactly. I'm pleased with how it works for me so I don't want to mess with it. I have mine set and it's working good.

haven't figured anything out. it's only controlled via their app.

ok. then the mqtt protocol will need to be the way things are handled in the future then. i haven’t looked into this in great detail and hope the HTTPS enforcement is for web traffic and not for alternative/ other ports. i may have to dig into the documentation and fire up an emulator to test it out...

What is the status of being able to handle HTTPS connections to the controller? I have not looked at this much but was inquiring about it. The inquiry comes from what I'm hearing about the upcoming Android P OS. That OS is requiring all web connections be made via HTTPS and will not support HTTP. If...

welcome.
glad it’s working now.

remove this line entirely: that overrides anything that gets read from memory.
