need someone to write a code

[briank6050]

cant for the life of me figure out how to write a code. can someone help me please??!! Thanks

[briank6050]

this is the current code im running. i would like to add a night mode to the vortech pump to ramp down to 35% constant from 9pm to 7am. also would like some sort of a storm mode if possible

Lee just gave you this code.
http://forum.reefangel.com/viewtopic.ph ... ead#unread

[briank6050]

do i just copy and paste it between the custom code lines?

[briank6050]

and where do i put the times i want?

[rimai]

Correct. Just place it in the custom code inside loop().
The times can be set in the code he gave you.

[briank6050]

well it went into night mode but now it dont come out of it. the rf changes color but the pump remains in night mode

[rimai]

If you look at the code he gave you:

Code: Select all

// Turn off Night Mode
if (hour()>8 && ReefAngel.RF.Mode==Night) ReefAngel.RF.SetMode(Night_Stop,0,0);
// Turn on Night Mode
if (hour()>20 && ReefAngel.RF.Mode!=Night) ReefAngel.RF.SetMode(Night,20,0);

When it is > 20 hours, the pump will enter night mode
And it will stop night mode when time is > 8 hours.
So, it will only come out of night mode tomorrow morning at 8am.

[rimai]

I personally don't like the night mode of the vortech pump drivers.
So, I never use it myself.
I prefer using reefcrest at very slow speed instead.

[briank6050]

That sounds like a good idea! How would i program that instead?

[rimai]

Use something like this:

Code: Select all

if (hour()<8 || hour()>20) ReefAngel.RF.SetMode( ReefCrest,20,10 );

[briank6050]

Well my vortech pump never went out of night mode this morn. The rf did change color but the pump remains at constant low speed. Sound like a communication prob between rf and ecotech driver?

[rimai]

Was it still blinking white?
How long is the night mode setup on your vortech driver?
Check their manual:
http://ecotechmarine.com/wp-content/upl ... on1.33.pdf

[briank6050]

New code is so far so good. I dont suppose you have any ideas for a storm and clouds mode? My blue leds are on one driver and 2 50w white leds on another 2 drivers on my dimming expansion port.

[rimai]

Which drivers are you using?

[briank6050]

They are JR Tronic brand. Model uv3617-50-pwm

[rimai]

Never heard of that one.
Let us know how it responds. Many LED drivers are not fast enough to create a nice effect.
Try this one:

I will let you know how that code works when my other two drivers get here! One last question then ill quit buggin you for a while, how can iget my vortech pump into feeding mode when i toggle to feeding mode on the ra controller?
