Reef Angel Forum

Ok some updates: I've disconnected bluetooth attachement and connected Wifi module directly to ReefAngel - everything is stable now. I see that cables that connects from RA to Bluetooth and RA to Wifi are different - could this be a reason? Or any suggestions why this is happening?

When I connect directly to relay box without hub I do not get Bus Lock, but still PH expansion is going up and down. When I turn off wifi extension from RA - numbers becomes stable

Here is also video how ph expansion behaves: https://drive.google.com/open?id=10gT8v ... B0ovzHudoq

Hello, Recently I constantly get Bus Lock error on my Reef angel - in that time salinity, ph expansion, water level goes to 0. After it comes back some of the ports in second relay expansion start turn on for less than a second. I've tried to switch off the wifi module - bus lock issue stopped to ap...

Why don't you just use alert emails for that? You can type anything on email alerts. But email alerts are outside the controller. Im writing code in the arduino ir order to track some things to catch when there is a problem and even now my all custom variables are fully occupied, im even saving lik...

Thank you. It works perfectly

You need a variable to control that. static boolean control=false; if (ReefAngel.Relay.IsOn(Port1) && control==false) { control=true; ReefAngel.CustomVar[0]++; } if (ReefAngel.Relay.IsOff(Port1) && control==true) { control=false; } I'm getting compile error :( error: 'class RelayCla...

Thanks!

By the way is there any possibility to have more custom variables that could be seen in the app? Or at least have some of them as text (not as number)?

It would show up as custom variable.

But how to write such code in order to have such count? If I put code in the loop section when temp is less 25 then add 1 to the count - the count grows each milisecond

Hello, I'm wondering if there are some ways to count how many times relay is turned on or off in the arduino? For example: when we use temp probes in order to switch on/off heater: if temp less than 25 turn on heater and if more than 26 turn off heater. And if during the day temp drops 3 times and h...

Hello, I would like to purchase such bluetooth attachement in order to upload code without cables

Done that few times. Tried experimenting why this is happening. And seems that the wire from RA to Wifi is causing this. If I'm finding some position - everything is working fine. @rimai how can I get replacement wire?

It started after recent update of the code in RA (earlier it was the same but not so often, values changed to zero once 5 minutes or so). In code there were changes just for ph exp values (even with the old code same happens).

Router has not been changed. Also cannot find any water damage.

This one was done not so long ago when portal ip was changed. Since then it changed or not? Or should I do the same update?

How to do that? Can you please help

Or maybe not. As it worked perfectly previously. It could be anything

Maybe you're wifi module is defective. Contact customer service to get a replacement. But before that I just realized when you plug the black connector to RA controller make sure you line it up to the right of the RA connection pins!? Sent from my SM-G935T using Tapatalk You cannot plug wifi module...

It happens only when Wifi module gets connected. If you disconnect - RA controller is stable. Also worth to mention after some time it stabilizes and jumps between values are not so big. Fx ORP goes from 400 to 385 to 405 in few seconds, although without Wifi it is stable at 398. Same is with Salini...

Hello,

Once Wifi connected reefangel goes crazy - parameters starts to jump and is not stable.

Here is the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1HZJPt2uJck

Can someone help to identify what is the problem.

Thank you

Same issue here. Not so often but still it happens. Any other suggestions how to find route cause?

Thank you, I will try that

Where should I put this code and what does it mean following:

if ((millis() - lastmillis)>1000)

Afterwards I should use just avgphexp instead of ReefAngel.Params.PHExp, yes?

if ( avgphexp >= 660 && avgphexp < 800) ReefAngel.Relay.On(Box1_Port4);

Hello, I have an issue with Ph expansion slot and co2 solenoid valve. CO2 solenoid valve keeps turning on/off a lot of times a day without reason. Actually there is a reason (there are two of them): 1st: as calcium reactor has feed pump ph changes during the seconds/minutes and this lead to that whe...

Hello,

Is there any command/function which could retrieve last time specific port was on or off?

After couple of days it stabilized and now working perfectly

Hey, I wrote to you in PM. Any help would be great

In moving water there maybe some air or air bubbles getting in.

Ok, I'm bit confused. No same happened where there are no water movement, it went down to 0.

Tried - no reaction.
