From reading what is on the board, +12V is also VR-SW1 . Its labled +12V-D/ VR-SW from what I can see.

Either your dimmer is different than the one that was mentioned previously or you are missing something.... One pair needs to get shorted. This is the functionality on the dial that turns the unit on/off. Not sure if this is required for the older style D120 that has a seperate power switch. There ...

You say on and off is working...you may have the pairs switched. One pair of wires need to be shorted to keep the unit on all the time. The other pair is for dimming. I opened up the driver and heres have i have the wires conntected. VR+ ---> RA Dimming + VR- ----> RA Dimming - Vr-SW2 connected to ...

Nope. It's coded the same. For those fixtures, I'm pretty sure you need a meanwell driver in the middle. Search our forums for D120 and you will find the thread. I was following another post regarding this and others have had success with the driver that came with the light. No other driver was nee...

Not sure I understand. You have already an analog signal box. Sorry, I should explain the issue I am having. What I am trying to do is set up my evergrow D120 Led Lights to be controled by my reef Angel plus with analog relay box. I have the wires on my D120s to connect to the Reef Angel controller...

I have a an analog relay box and I want to change the dimming signal to analog. How do I do this?

My Reef Angel Libraries Version: 1.1.0


Thanks

Can someone help. I can't figure out which wire is which. I have the dimmer below.

Ok, I was able to replicate the issue and it was definitely due to the firmware upgrade. Let's try this: You need to decompress the zip file. Open the .ttl file in notepad or any other text editor. Change the SSID and passphrase. Save the file. Use Tera Term and go to menu Control->Macro Browse to ...

Are you sure that you are using the correct SSID and passphrase? They are case sensitive, so uppercase and lowercase matters. The update firmware button is not working. What's making me confused is the fact that in order to update firmware, you must be connected to wifi in the first place. So, even...

I updated the firmware through wifi Utility but received the error message ** ERROR - Please disconnect and then reconnect the Reef Angel Wifi Attachment from the USB-TTL cable and try again.

I tried doing a factory rest using the wifi Utility but was no luck. Still got the error message.

There was no module sold with that firmware 4.41
Did you update yourself?
Try factory reset and do it again.

how would I factory reset?

Yes I did try to update. Could this be the problem?

diid you choose the correct serial port? Is the wifi attachment plugged into the usb cable properly, with the black wire to the right? Is the module blinking green and blue? There is only one opion to select. COM 4 Yes,. the wire is connected correctly. Yes both blue and green ( looks a alittle yel...

Hi, I have having trouble setting up my wifi. I am able to connect to to the wifi attachment using wifi utility. However when trying to set up wifi attachment in wifi utility, I always get an error message. ** ERROR - Please disconnect and then reconnect the Reef Angel Wifi Attachment from the USB-T...

Thanks Roberto,

Thanks again Inevo.


Roberto,

Would I be able to use two or three D120 Fixtures for the dimming ports? The white of both fixtures in one port and blues in the other?

lnevo wrote:Yep

Thanks Inevo,

Just wondering, did you have success with the mode and did you run into any trouble?

Another question, would I be able to control 2 or 3 D120 without a dimming expansion?

lnevo wrote:These lights are down to $120 on eBay...think I'll be grabbing some soon...

So analog control..cut wires on 1+2 connect splice to dimming exp. and short 3+4? Thats it?

Forgive me as and trying to figure out what mean by short 3+4. Does that mean connect 3+4 wires together?

Thanks.
