A little help

For some reason the ATO power never turned off, what is worse is that it put, over night, almost 10 gallons of freshly made Kalk into the system. My Ph is almost at 10 accorCding to the RA, I am probably looking at a complete loss, but time will tell I guess.

Is there anything in that sketch that would keep that port on?

[lnevo]

What port is your ato pump on? All i see are On ports...

[topjimmy]

port 3, heater on port 4

I had put a delay on it just to be safe during water changes and such....possibly a bad idea....

[rimai]

Yeah. That port is coded to be on all the time and not as ATO.
You need to change this:

Code: Select all

ReefAngel.Relay.DelayedOn( Port3 );

Assuming you are using the ATO Low port, to this:

Code: Select all

ReefAngel.SingleATO(true,Port3,60,0);

[topjimmy]

I did it late last night and was stupid enough not to make sure it was working correctly.

Thanks for the help . I'll make the change and hope for the best.

[lnevo]

Yeah, you basically declared it as an always on port...no setting for ato functionality.

[topjimmy]

I should know better than to do something like that and not test functionality. What It did was delayed the start for the 60 seconds after the upload, so it appeared as if it was off and functioning as ATO, then I left and the gd thing turned on , just like it should have. DOH!

[rimai]

Yeah, that's exactly what happened

[rimai]

Since you are pumping Kalk, my recommendation is to kill that port if pH rises to a certain level...
Like this:

Code: Select all

ReefAngel.SingleATO(true,Port3,60,0);
if (ReefAngel.Params.PH>850) ReefAngel.Relay.Off(Port3);

[lnevo]

[topjimmy]

Good idea.

I need to set up the peristaltic pump I have for dosing the Kalc on that port. At least it would not have been able to dump 10 gallons in over night.

[topjimmy]

OK So I set up my dosing pump to be my ATO pump.

So let me run this by you, dosing pump comes on every 60m for 20s
If ATO low is on ( i assume that means water level is low) then it lets the timer go on.
If the ATO high is on ( I assume this means water level is too high) then turn off the port,or don't turn it on at all.
If the ph is at or goes over 8.5 during the time on turn off the port.

How would I code that?
I have a basic idea but I want to be sure.

Well kind of, I don't want the ato to trigger the event, just allow it to happen or not, at the same interval.

[rimai]

Ahh.. Sorry... I misread the post.

Code: Select all

  if (ReefAngel.LowATO.IsActive())
    ReefAngel.DosingPumpRepeat(Port3,0,60,20);
  else
    ReefAngel.Relay.Off(Port3);
  if (!ReefAngel.HighATO.IsActive()) ReefAngel.Relay.Off(Port3);
  if (ReefAngel.Params.PH>850) ReefAngel.Relay.Off(Port3);    

This will do the following, assuming both floats are pointing down:
ATO Low is down, let the timer run.
ATO Low is up, turn port off
ATO High is down, does nothing
ATO High is up, turn port off
Is that what you wanted?

[topjimmy]

I think that is perfect. thanks again.

[topjimmy]

just a quick question,

Both the ato floats are oriented in the same direction, cable up. On the portal, what is the significance of the ato color being red or green?

If ATO low (the float lowest in the sump) is green that means that the float is high, and the pump will not turn on,

The ATO high is red, and should never go green unless there is more water in the sump than should be.

right?

[rimai]

The green means the float piece is not floating.

[topjimmy]

ok i'm good then ato low is red ,ato high is green just as it should be
