Reef Angel Forum

Second unit running now :D I was pulling my hair out lol. At least that makes sense as to why inverting the times in the memory gave weird results. I was trying to figure out why the hell I was the only person having this issue lol. The guys I apprenticed under back in the day are rolling in their g...

DAMMMMITTTTTT........ Think I found the problem..... My RA is mounted on the side of my tank where I cant see it. I rely heavily on the webinterface/phone app. So while im testing the second head unit its on the table next to me. The head unit was showing a different time to the phone and web interf...

ok, reloaded IDE version working now.

Same controller etc. and re-tried the webplugin version..... not working.
Going to try the same thing with that code quickly so I do the same method....

EDIT - ignore that, wrong code loaded

Ok cool, but it just started working on the IDE version. I added ReefAngel.Relay.Off(Port1); to this Arduino wizard code that wasnt working... #include <ReefAngel_Features.h> #include <Globals.h> #include <RA_Wifi.h> #include <Wire.h> #include <OneWire.h> #include <Time.h> #include <DS1307RTC.h> #in...

same issue on the second reefangel, using the arduino IDE and wizard.

no clue whats up

Ok,

Tested a second head unit and the same issue with the standard timer.
also does the weird thing with making the off time earlier than the on time

I'll install the arduino IDE and copy/paste the code into that and upload.

OK.... StdLights. The only thing that triggers any change on the relay is by changing the off time. if the on time is learlier than the off time, the relay is off and it doesnt change if it passes the off time. If I make the off time earlier than the on time, the relay turns on. It stays in this sta...

Just seen a problem with my first attempt that I ripped.... ////// Place global variable code below here void GasPumpTimer() //Timer for CO2 Relay until I get the std light timer working { if (hour()>=12 && hour()<19) { ReefAngel.Relay.On (GasPump); } } ////// Place global variable code abov...

Is it normal to have 2 entries for #include <InternalEEPROM.h>? It's what the wizard gave me. The wizard is also trying to give me extra relays even though I haven't selected the Relay Expansion option. I also tried to move the the GasPumpTimer code into the Void loop() as normal arguments with all ...

Hello :) I'm trying to setup a CO2 solenoid to turn on between 12:00 and 19:00. I have an RA Plus. I used the Wizard via the web plugin and created my basic code using internal memory. I used the Timed Schedule option to setup the port. It didn't turn on and off :( I used the Android App to change t...

I had the same problem with a similar setup I just had to add an else statement and it's working now. Mine is If (ReefAngel.ATOHigh.isActive) { ReefAngel.Relay.Off(your return pump port here); } else (ReefAngel.Relay.On(your return pump port here); You can put in the ! To flip the logic..... or just...

Me too lol

great, I figured that would be the case, but always better yo check

thanks so much

Ok Cool, thanks

Hi, I see that the RA* is the current model and would love to eventually migrate onto it, but have the following questions about it. 1. It would seem that you don't need any sort of Cloud or WiFi expansion. It comes with it standard. Am I correct? 2. Are the existing expansions going to change/not b...

Ah, ok cool, thanks :) I have gotten a second RA system for my new build and I've started coding it. Am I correct that the web wizard and IDEv1.6.8 are where the system is headed? So it makes sense to keep programming with one of those two instead of the older standard version? EDIT- Geez, after usi...

Hi, When I use the Dev IDE and the web wizard, my custom labels don't come up on the head unit and my DCpump mode doesn't reflect the correct mode on startup. The DCpump mode is a bit of a non-issue as once I re-set it via the U-App it's fine. If I revert to the standard IDE (1.1.3 not the dev) it a...

Hi guys, hopefully you guys can tell me how to do this. I'm on OS_x El Capitan on a 2009 Mac Pro at home and Sierra on my work current gen Mac pro. I run the latest Arduino for my 3d printer to load the firmware etc. How do I install the RA and the Arduino as two "seperate" things? On my P...

Sorry for my lat reply, no it doesn't but by just copying/pasting the code into the webwizard and saving I have cloud backup of my codes that I can always get to. I've lost them twice lol. There's a reason for trying to lose the arduino version. I'll start a new thread now.

Hi, I just started messing around with the tide and weather options and see I can't #include them via the web plugin.
Does this mean I'll have to use the Arduino interface then?
Create my code there and then I can copy/Paste and use the webwizard to save it on your server?

Installed on my old 2009 Mac Pro with El Capitan. Seems to run fine and compiled my old sketch perfectly. Only problem I had was that I kept clicking the app in "Applications"trying to make it open lol. Didn't see it in the "Status" bar on the top left:P Can I officially stop usi...

Hi,
It suddenly settled down so I started migrating gear back onto the Relay box.
I then heard the random relay again.

It would appear to be an issue with the WiFi attachment (water damage or other). I unplugged that and it's running solid for about 12 hours.
Just put it back in and lets see .....

Dang,

Tried to reboot by pulling the power out of the relay box.
Everything is now dead - no power.
We had a power spike yesterday..... I have a ups between the mains and RA. Do you think it could have been fried by the spike?
Any way to tell?

Ok, Haven't been able to check the float switch but if I scroll on the head unit there is an item that says "bus lock" Edit : original float switch is working. Tested with a new one and all the I/O ports are being read by the head unit correctly. I read some guys had issues with expansions...

Hi, I think I've lost communication between my Head Unit and the relay box. My basic setup is an RA Plus, single relay box and wifi unit. I have 3 temp probes and use the two I/o's for sump level safety (float switch) and a little relay to trigger a power out mode. Last night I heard a relay going b...

Awesome, thanks.
Ill get my ducks in a row this side and then organise

I saw that, do you know if it is available to buy the relay hub as a stand alone item? I'm keen on buying a second hand system (has dimming expansion etc. that I don't have) and it would be nice to add the relays if possible. PS.... the new boxes look great, I would migrate everything into that look...

Thought I'd share my little led mod. Built this out of drafting paper http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160712/7e4253f4868738e1bdda972d9aa21084.jpg Which changed the light spill from this http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160712/302e0fced195f8c6290ae87375f4f4bb.jpg To this.... http://uploads.tapatal...

Hi guys,

If I buy a second controller, can I use it's relay box as an expander on my current system?
Does it have to be a "Relay Expander"?

Thanks
