Reef Angel Wizard

rimai · Post by **rimai** » Wed May 30, 2012 4:10 pm

The Reef Angel Wizard is a new tool that will allow you to generate your own code with simple to answer questions.
It was created in Java, which means it is cross-platform. This is the tool we were missing for those using MacOSX.
To access it, simply open the Arduino IDE and go to menu Tools->Reef Angel Wizard.
Please let me know if you have problems using it or have any comments or suggestions.

Hi,

i have a suggestion.

it would be cool if you could choose your recent INO file you uploaded so you can edit it rather then do the whole thing again. this would be for the non internal memory option.

for internal memory option it would be cool if the wizard could follow the whole process through with internal mem.

e.g. program all ports then the wizard will read that code to see what setting have been chosen in the internal memory, user sets internal memory values.

then the wizard will upload the files in correct order.

Great suggestions.
I'll include them in the TODO list.
Thanks!

I opened Arduino and clicked the wizard and got a long error message too long to type....do I need to download a more recent version of Arduino to have this work? I have the latest libraries...9.9 if that matters

Yes.
Download the new Reef Angel Installer from http://www.reefangel.com/Download.ashx

Roberto,

The new wizard is pretty slick. Very nice job with it.

hmmm I used the Wizard to generate my current code prior to its official announcement (found it by looking at the menu)... it must have been at least 3 weeks ago now?

I did use always on for 3 ports and they are behaving correctly, that is, always on and only turned off by feeding mode/water change mode.

Would this be an issue that was introduced in the newer version?

rimai · Post by **rimai** » Thu Jun 07, 2012 11:07 am

Yes. version 1.03 came with this bug.
The newer version also has some other functions (PHControl and CO2Control) and the option to generate code with hard code or internal memory settings.

When will be release the new version?

Hi Roberto,

I use the new Wizard to generate my code (great job it's very simple) but i set port 1-2-3-4-5-6-7 always on/off in feed mode and port 8 for my dosing pump.

After transfert in my ReefAngel, i realize all port is off exept dosing pump (i'm not in feed mode)

Do you have any idea??

Thank

I already pushed the updated version.
If you run the update utility, it should download the newest file, which is v1.04
Let me know if you have problems.

Updated to v1.04 and everything seems to be working fine now, will keep ya posted. Thanks Roberto!

Thank you Roberto

I just downloaded the new version and it still has 1.03. How do I get 1.04?

rimai · Post by **rimai** » Sat Jun 09, 2012 7:34 am

Use the update utility: www.reefangel.com/update

astralmind · Post by **astralmind** » Tue Jun 12, 2012 4:55 am

Nice!!! Got 1.04 running here, will have to generate new code to see if it fixes my screen issues.

2 observations:

- On my PC (Win 7 64bits) the layout cuts out some critical piece of info when left on standard "medium" size. For example, I only see the top of the AT Timeout dropbox but I can't click it. There seems to be noway to resize it. I'm running in standard 1080p resolution so I imagine I'm definitely not the only one with this issue. Reducing the display size to "small" fixes this but small is not very fun to use for everyday.

- The Wizard is awesomely user friendly when used with default "hard coded" values. However, if used in conjunction with the memory file (which I assume most people would want) it gets a little trickier. Would it be possible to use an almost identical interface when filling in the hardcoded and memory version? I would assume most of the memory file could be populated step by step in the same fashion and at the end of the wizard we could have both files generated with a simple pop stating that you should upload the mem file first followed by the rest of the code. Just a thought from a very lazy guy hehe

I think the Wizard truly makes the RA an accessible controller, even more so than others and that is quite an amazing feat!

Thanks for the suggestions

They are very welcomed and I never realized that the layout would get messed up with increasing font size.
I never tried doing it on my computer, but I'll look into it.
I'm planning on changing the wizard to make it as user-friendly and the hard coded version.
My initial plan was to just have it available for hard coded version, but decided to do the internal memory too, but didn't do as good of a job as the hard coded.
But, I've been working on changing the Arduino IDE and I got to a point now that I can interact and be able to load 2 INO files and have feedback of success or failure, which was what I was missing previously.
So, the future release will be be able to load both files in this step-by-step fashion.

Is anyone having issue with the actinic lights functions? I used the wizard last night to generate this code. For some reason the two ports (1&2 on my main relay) that my actinics are on are staying energized. The standard lights are on the same schedule and working ok. I've tried powering it on and off and have resent the memory values using the android app.

Which value did you update with android?

Mike S · Post by **Mike S** » Thu Jun 14, 2012 7:55 pm

The MH on and off hour and minute

rimai · Post by **rimai** » Thu Jun 14, 2012 9:44 pm

The function does not use those.
It actually offsets the StandardLights by x amount of minutes that you need to set on memory location ActinicOffset or 884.

Mike S · Post by **Mike S** » Fri Jun 15, 2012 2:03 pm

That would explain it thanks! Is the memory function not available in the Android apps yet or am I just missing it?

Is there a default offset for this? My actinics relays don't appear to be cycling on. I'm not seeing any ActinicOffset code in my memory or pde files nor in Ragen or the android app. I'm confused why those relays aren't just cycling on with my standards lights. Thanks Mike

rimai · Post by **rimai** » Sat Jun 16, 2012 10:14 am

No default value.
It's a brand new memory location that has not been included into the RAGen yet.
Use this:

Code: Select all

    InternalMemory.ActinicOffset_write(30);

Or custom memory on Android.

Mike S · Post by **Mike S** » Sun Jun 17, 2012 4:50 am

Ah so that what that custom location is for on the Android apps.

That worked like a charm thanks.

binder · Post by **binder** » Sun Jun 17, 2012 6:44 am

I will be adding in the new memory locations to the app in the near future.

I need beta testers

I have the 2.0 beta version to be tested.
Please download the files needed here:
http://www.reefangel.com/files/wizardbeta2.0.zip
Extract the zip file and you will see 2 folders and 1 file.
Move the folder tools to Documents\Arduino and click "Yes" to any overwrite prompt
Move the folder update to Documents\Arduino
Move the file pde.jar to Program Files\Reef Angel Controller\lib and click "Yes" to any overwrite prompt
Let me know if you have problems getting it updated.

sebimme · Post by **sebimme** » Tue Jun 26, 2012 10:52 pm

I will test it!
