Par38 lamps & power head

Post by Llewro »

Hi, I am buying myself one for christmas. But in the meantime I am getting some new gear. Will reef angel be able to dim par38 led lamps? Thet say they are dimmable from a regular house dimming switch.

Also If I get a Macro Wave Pump 3000-4800l/h  DC 12-24v will reef angel be able to ramp the speed up and down?

I might as well get gear that a reef angel can control.

Cheers.

I'm afraid it won't. Sorry.
You need something that will dim or adjust with 0-10VDC.
Same thing for the pumps.
Tunze controllable pumps can be controlled with the RA dimming signal.
Ecotech Vortechs can be controlled, but require the RF expansion module.

Ok, thanks. I assume the controllable hydro Koralia pumps cannot be ramped up/down as well.

No, they all have their own proprietary controller and do not offer any third party access.
