What will I need
Posted: Sat Dec 28, 2013 7:37 am
I am very interested in purchasing a Reef Angel controller for my system. I am not sure what equipment I will need, I have a 210 gallon mixed reef with 2 WP40's ( how much control will I have with these connected to my RA?) I have an ATO already but can use the RA if it is more efficient. I also have a chiller on line and would like both the pump and the chiller controlled by the RA temp probes so that it will not run constantly as it does now. I am also running a skimmer, fan (not DC), 2 dosing pumps and a return pump. I have an Aquatic Life t5 fixture currently but will be upgrading to LED's sometime this coming year probably to Rapid LED's. I don't think the Ra has the capability to control the T5 fixture as it does not have dimmable drivers.
I guess my question is what RA will I need to purchase and what add-ons will I need beside the WIFI module and the Jebao cables, any thing else?
I know nothing about Arduino program except what little I have read doing research for this buy. I would really like to educate my self and learn to write some code at some point. Where would be a good place to start? which books or websites would be the most beneficial. I do have an understanding of basic electronics if that helps.
thank you
