Lighting/fan/portal not working as intended

Post by michaela »

Hi everyone,

I am not sure if this is a code issue or problem with the RAstar unit.

I have uploaded the following code to;
- turn the T5 lights (ports 6 and 7) on between 10am and 4pm
- turn off the skimmer if the highATO switch is activated.
- turn on the fan when temp 1 is above 25.6 degrees C

These only work sometimes. It seems that whenever the unit is left alone for a few hours it basically continues to run as is. Every day the lights either don't come on or they come on and stay on indefinitely unless I tap the screen to wake the unit up.

Code: Select all

RE the portal.
I was able to get the portal working by connecting the RA unit to a netgear wifi extender via ethernet cable. A few months ago this stopped and I am not sure why. I can't seem to get the portal to update (last update was 10/4/2019). Is there anything in this code that suggests that wouldn't work? Is there any other options to get this running? My IP address hasn't changed.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Michael.

I opened up a new issue.
There was another report of the same problem.
