Single Ato interval
Single Ato interval
Hi. I'm using RA+ singleato with 1hour interval. Is there a way to reduce The interval? 30 minutes will be fine. Thx

Re: Single Ato interval
Why not just disable with zero? Do you get that much evaporation in 30minutes?

Re: Single Ato interval
In summer with fans i do and it lowers the skimmer level... And i can't disable for safety reasons. No way to set it between 0 and 1hour?
Re: Single Ato interval
Not with the SingleATO in our libraries. You can certainly create one with the same framework and change the settings to use minutes instead of hours.
I've been using SingleATO with hour interval disabled for 4 years without ever having any problems.
That feature is mainly targeted to those that have heavy turbulence in the water and not as safety feature.
Why do you think disabling would not work?

Re: Single Ato interval
I didn't realize there was a timeout built in. Here's what I use. This is using internal memory for timeout, etc.
Up top in the globals section:
Down in the loop()
HTH,

Up top in the globals section:
Code: Select all
static time_t LastATO=millis(); // For de-bounced ATO
Code: Select all
// Debounced ATO code. Activate ATO no more than every 60 seconds (60000 milliseconds).
if (!ReefAngel.LowATO.IsActive()) LastATO=millis();
if (millis()-LastATO<60000 && millis()-LastATO>10)
ReefAngel.Relay.Off(TopOff);
else
ReefAngel.SingleATOLow(TopOff);

Re: R: Single Ato interval
Thanks a Lot Colin. Is there a way to put something in the code that set The maximum Ato time?
Example: activate ato for a maximum of 5 seconds not more then once every 30 minutes.?

Re: Single Ato interval
It would take new code.
Why would you only want it to run for 5 seconds? You could run dry if you do it like that.

Re: R: Single Ato interval
5 seconds was just for example

Re: Single Ato interval
What I'm not understanding is the reason why every 30 minutes?
Why not just let the ATO do its job on demand with a max run time of x seconds?

Re: Single Ato interval
Here's exactly what you want. Only diff is the example the timeout is 300 seconds and i set the runtime to 305 seconds to make sure the timeout could get triggered in case the reservoir went dry or pump issue. So i would just make sure the runtime parameter is equal to or higher then the ato timeout arg.

Re: R: Single Ato interval
Because every time i put my hands in the sump it keep triggering on and off The ATO...rimai wrote:What I'm not understanding is the reason why every 30 minutes?
