Reef Angel Forum

I just need the head unit and the universal relay box. Don’t care about the other things it comes with.

I bought a new DC6000 from Amazon for $99. It is working fine. Compared to my backup pump it is very quiet and very happy with it. Now I need to find a use for the one that hesitates.

I cleaned the pump throughly. Took apart the impeller shaft. Not much issues possibly it was already cleaned by the vinegar dip. I put everything put together, same issue. Unless I give it a spin it is not working. I like using robertoflow so I ordered another one from Amazon, old system but I not r...

I tested the pump a couple of minutes ago. Both the original controller and reef angel cable controls it without issues. When you stop the pump, like going into feed mode, it will not start again unless you give it a spin. I might continue to use it by turning down the dimming to like 30% so it will...

For the last two years, I was happily using Robertoflow with Jebao Cable. My pump decided not to start after going into feed mode. I replaced it with an old pump for now and looking for my options. I cleaned DC6000 with vinegar and tested that it works with its own controller. It still does not get ...

I use a WeMo switch. I can see and track the usage and when needed remotely power cycle.

I had a similar issue. My Led lamp for the cheato started to get moisture in. The ph meter was out of whack. I couldn't figure it out for a while what it was until the lamp stopped working. I bought an outdoors lamp this time.

I agree it is a bit odd. I placed it in a container our of the tank, it shows 8.12 which is normal.

I was looking up the problems with PH Probes. Most of them say that if you have a stray voltage the readings go down and advice to find the problem component by turning them off one by one. I figured out that my problem is related to DC-6000 return pump that I control through the water level sensor....

wait a minute, the hump age has changed recently. is it 35, 50 or 55?

Not on the DCT, but my DC6000 works perfect with the code that was in this thread. An interesting note, when I used the DC6000 controller, 4 light out of 6 was getting my overflow to 98%. I thought it will be equal to 66% in the reef angle code. After playing a bit 77% gets me to 67% in the overflow...

Unused parts

It is available. Since I bought a 4 channel one, I will include used parts from that kit.

Don't they listen to the feeding signal regardless of the master slave?

I had Rf Expansion when I just had two MP10s to control the flow rates etc. Now I have Radion added to the pumps. Reeflink looked very attractive for easy programmability of the Radion. Currently all my pumps and radion are controlled by my reeflink. Instead of putting the RF expansion up for sale I...

Cool. But I don't know what to do with 5 channels. I'll use one in the sump, the other in the ATO reservoir. Maybe one mor in the skimmer collector cup.

Roberto says I can't in this post. http://forum.reefangel.com/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=4969
All I needed was another channel. If I could it would be cheaper.

I just bought a multi channel water level expansion. Since I can not use more than one water level expansion, up for sale is my single channel expansion. The data that you see on my signature comes from that kit.

$50 shipped.

Thanks

Decided to keep it.

Bus lock scares the s... out of me. I had the same issue. The expansion hub gets stuck. The only way to clear the bus lock was installing a remote controlled switch to turn the whole system off and restart.

It has been about a week, no issues. Woohoo. I am keeping my WeMo in case I need it.

Thanks Roberto. I was really thinking about moving to Neptune Apex (they are located in my town- Morgan Hill).

Thanks

This is suppose to work just like the original one, except it does a bus check every 5min. If it finds a bus lock, it resets itself. Thanks, I'll play with it a bit more. By the way, My WeMo works fine for remote power switching. I generally get the overtemp warning from my Hood Temp and use WeMo t...

Good luck!!! Roberto, What does this code do? I am able to switch modes but the vortech seem not to care. Normally I see the speed change, but there are no speed lights and it is just at white slave mode. Ok, let's try this: Download the attached file and follow the instructions in this thread: htt...

Ok, let's try this: Download the attached file and follow the instructions in this thread: http://forum.reefangel.com/viewtopic.php?p=13002#p13002 If everything goes right, the module should flash 3 times red really fast and blink cyan and magenta 3 times when initially plugged into the usb cable. ...

Let me try it.

I am also looking at a different option to solve my problem. I purchased (not arrived yet) an IP enabled power cycle.
I will try to figure out how I can trigger the power cycle when Bus Lock is on.

Thanks Roberto

I had another buslock today. I tried the reboot using the android app. RA rebooted, but did not clear the buslock. I was home when I was trying that. I did a power on/off everything was back to normal. I wonder how I can power cycle when away from home

Does this happen if you have only the RF or only the WL connected to the hub? If you set an alert trigger for AF>0, it will send you an email when the bus lock comes on. I'll try that. I think this happens when my RF Expansion sends a mode change signal to the Echotech in the morning to switch from...
