Re: RA* relay update question

i got the board off, took more force than anticipated. Multiple of the sockets have very bent copper plates and some even had loose connectors. Is there any way to get replacement sockets?

RA* relay update question

Hello- I am thinking about updating to the RA*. I purchased a RANET relay a few years ago, but it never kept a good wireless connection so it has been sitting in a closet collecting dust. Can this relay be used directly with the RA*? Also, when I received it, multiple of the ports were unusable beca...

Re: Return pump interfering with float switch locking up RA

They are in the standard ato configuration with wires up on one and wires down on the other. The return chamber is very calm so I don't think it's waves. Guess I could buy some new switches. Just think it's odd that it happens more often the closer they are to the pump

Return pump interfering with float switch locking up RA

I recently upgraded my tank/sump and have ran in to an odd problem with my reefangel. My new sump requires that my float switches are closer to my return pump than my old sump. I think it is causing magnetic interference with the switches causing them to occasionally cycle on and off rapidly. When i...

Re: RANet relay expansion not working

another question about the expansion. I just go back in town after getting it setup. Last night I noticed that every 10-20 min my refugium light would turn off for a second then right back on. This light is hooked up to the wireless relay expansion. I think the expansion is losing connection to RANE...

dosing pump calibration

just hooked up 2 of the dosing pumps. i calibrated by timing how long it took to move 250cc. Got one to be 0.6cc/sec and the other to be 0.65cc/sec. Is it normal to be off the 0.75 mark?

Re: RANet relay expansion not working

thanks, that fixed it. I used a small screwdriver and was able to bend some of the copper in the two outlets the didnt allow me to plug anything in. That seemed to fix it. Still a little rough plugging things in them though

RANet relay expansion not working

I tried to hook up my ranet relay expansion today. None of the outlet seems to work. Even when I set them to always on. I flipped the 1st switch on. 2 and 3 are off on the side. Also, there are 2 ports that I cant plug anything in to because the copper inside is bent. Is this fixable? here is my cod...

As in override to keep the port on all the time? Also, what is the APWM% and DPWM% in the memory section of the client suite controlling? The numbers in there don't correlate to anything I have set.

no changes at all. just typical water changes. Makes no sense to me. I guess I will just run it with the switch inverted and see what happens. maybe it will switch back to normal again after a few days haha. who knows.

Awesome. I'm very interested on knowing how those drivers work out. I'm actually specially interested on knowing if they really can dim down to 1% and how hot the chip gets.
