Re: Controllable Automatic Fish Feeder?

Use something like this to be safe: http://m.ebay.com/itm/310566336050?nav=SEARCH Sent from my Galaxy S5 with Tapatalk I have some relays similar to this and honestly I have no idea how to wire it and program it with the RA. Any low level tips or links to a tutorial site would be much appreciated.

Re: Bus Lock? What is it an how do I clear it?

Mine was due to the RF module. Plugged it out and the bus lock went away. It's been a week since I had any incidents.

I haven't plugged the RF module back in. Maybe try it out during the weekends when I'm not around. But I'm glad my initial suspect that my relays went bad wasn't true.

Re: Bus Lock? What is it an how do I clear it?

So what does the 'bus lock' mean? I just noticed this as well when my relays started misbehaving. I thought it was the relays going bad.

When the 'bus lock' status is ON, the relays do not respond to the Android App relay on/off commands.

Re: Relay not responding to software changes

Thanks Davaraj. Very helpful

How come it doesn't say Omron there? Will a solid state relay work? Or the legs might be different?

Relay not responding to software changes

Hi there, My chiller (a 1hp compressor) has been connector to relay 5 for the past year and had no issues. Recently there was an incident that it was stuck to ON even though the app shows that it is supposed to be OFF. It caused my tank temp to go down to around 20 Celcius. I thought it was that par...

Re: SpeedWave DC pumps

Yeah, planning to put teflon. But if u see the photo, that's the most I can screw in without forcing it. It's like 3-4mm in only. I'm afraid forcing it might crack it.

Re: SpeedWave DC pumps

Got mine today. Dry fitted a 1.5" fitting and it looks like it went in a few turns. Not sure if it will leak water if mounted externally.

Re: SpeedWave DC pumps

Bhazard,
Good deal you got there. I ordered one from aliexpress.com but it was $125 :(. It's still in the mail.

What's that connector thingy on top of the pump? Would it fit a 3/4" or 1" fitting?

Re: SpeedWave DC pumps

Oh yeah... for me shipping is cheaper as I'm closer to China :) Browsing info regarding the pump for a while, I'm getting confused. There are a few variations. Jebao Marine Aqua - pump with blue body and slightly oval shape controller (6000,9000,12000) Jebao ECO-TECH - pump with black body and squar...

Anybody had experience buying from aliexpress.com? It's listed there for USD105. Buy 4 or more for USD99.75.

Re: I want new menu in RA for carbon reactor

Why not just switch the relay off from the Android app?

Re: WIFI Module Dead

Yesterday I plugged mine to the PC and tried to run a firmware upgrade. But it seems that the connection to the module is intermittent. And after an hour or so, the module stopped flashing at all. This morning I plugged it in and lights flashed again. Overheating? Looks most likely a hardware issue....

Re: WIFI Module Dead

I'm having this issue as well. I already contacted Roberto for RMA, but the cost to send the part over and get it back from where I am is almost the price of the unit itself. For my case, the module wakes up after overnight sitting unplugged, but dies again after around 6-7 hours usage. I'm hoping t...

Thanks binder. Does it matter if the controller is PWM or analog? Or it works on both?

Re: Jebo wp40?

Where does this cable connect on the RA and where does in connect on the wavemaker? Do you still use the controller block that came with the jebao? I can't figure it out looking from the photos
