Reef Angel Forum

PM'ed

Ok so here is the update. I reprogrammed the ra+ this morning to move it all around so that usb cables would no longer be an issue. I also wanted to rule out which usb device it was yada yada yada. The second I plug in the expansion hub (boom death loop) Ok hooray I found it right? well not entirely...

wow usb, sorry for paniced message I guess in describing it I was able tyo diagnose it. For now I unplugged all lead ons and just single usb to relay expansion and going to sleep. WOW usb messed me up

I had a sticking relay on one of my 2 relay boxes. I ordered a new box with the hopes of sending the original to rimai for him to repair, and then save as backup. I plug it all back in and wallah I am back up and running. The RA+ then started to reset and blink and I was like sugar somethings off. I...

ok I figured out the expansion problems, the water level sensor usb cable was shorting. I only suspected power because a while back you had mentioned they shouldnt be on same strip. the orp and salinity

the problem is now , after I moved the plugs around, all numbers are 0 or close to it u can see my portal numbers

I have usb expansion, relay expansion, salinity, orp, ph expansion and water level. I am all moved in and finally got my reef angel to go wifi again. My reef angel was a real saint while I was working and settling in keeping temps and levels where they should. I need to replace a couple relays but t...

n e news?

love u dave! u my hero!

n e news dmolton? I am in this big time if you are? I can donate if you want to split the loading app to store fee or whatever?

Received package today, one question. The USB port on the expansion relay, could I plug the ph expansion into that? And if yes, how do I manually set ph calibration values like I did for main probe for this one

Don't know. The one I replaced was the original one. So yes they were removable. Expansion box is new. How new? Idk. Lol. It's working so I live. Its really only "freaking " when messed with. Ty though

there is an app already there tank track. Its meant for apex but could we work it to monitor reefangel?

Update on relay. All plugs are secure. I removed and reinstalled them. If you touch the port it clicks. The relay box is mounted vertically just like my primary relay. Its fine unless u are messing with the plugs. I'm just curious if any one else had the oddity

Also setup support ticket to find out if app is free if it would require paid registration

really? I am a newb, but I just saw the tool kit download for free

I'll double check, but I twisted it tight last night checking it. I'll take it off and replug and tighten

Had a quick question. My second relay box activates or engages the relays off and on if the box is touched or jiggled. All connections are tight and after you leave it alone it for a minute it doesn't do it. But don't want a cat or anything to turn skimmer off by walking past wires! What could it be?

I'll order the relay and give it a go. Off your head u think any local places would have it?

No. Its t5 actnic. MH is perfect. I searched first and saw leds or MH usually trip it but not t5. Eh whatever I just couldn't figure out of I should bypass that port since I have extras or repair?

I have a relay sticking all of a sudden. I'm going to change the port to an open slot. But how can I fix it? What would u recommend?

Will be purchasing ph probe add on to control a port for co2 solenoid. How do I assign which ph to determine port on off. Just want to clarify this before setting up and letting co2 meltdown! Lol

update, vortechs perfect. water level perfect heater and fan control perfect light timing is off. When using the wizard internal or for newb selection the question I ask is this. If I want port 1 actnic 9am -9pm and mh 12-6pm how do I do that? I am thinking I am messing something up. Example on the ...

Where in the code is that kept/hidden

I hear ya. Its just odd since before with old install wizard it was flawless and seamless and now that I am adapting to new code maker I guess im getting messed up. That being said I changed portal end saved settings and set all to auto and it looks like it is starting to come around.

Android yes. Portal shows time schedule day and actinic times are off so I fixed on portal and it turned actinic on and MH off. Should I post in code forum what I want and just do it that way? Im sorry if u hate me by now. I reread all start guides and reread tutorials and im following

I did chose internal settings and the settings posted where for actnic 9am to 9pm and mh 12-6 pm port 1 actnic port 2 standard. that being said the lights dont go on.

Vortech is on and water level. There but lights do not go on and off like they are supposed to which scares me about temp control.

Yeah wizard selection I/O and RF

One last question for the night I swear. I have it set up and ill see if lights kick on @ schedule. Or if fans come on as needed. Etc. Im just afraid to add things without starting over from scratch. Basically why is it when I follow the instructions does it not have vortech control out the code pro...
