ATO Reservoir refill every few days

[Spotted]

Is there a way to run an ATO reservoir fill cycle every few days instead of based on float switches? How can I run it like every 3 days? Is there a way to do that?
I currently run it manually with a 12V solenoid, but I want to automate it. I mean that is the purpose of my tank computer, right?

[lnevo]

Yes I just shared my function with someone else in this thread.

http://forum.reefangel.com/viewtopic.php?t=5896#p51479

It relies on the water level sensor to know when to fill and when to stop. Without float switches how will you know? You could rely on a float valve to stop your RO/DI and just go for a specific time. Let me know, we can modify that code pretty easily.

[Spotted]

Yes that's my current set up. I have a float valve on the feed line to my reservoir. Right now I turn on the RO/DI port ,it fills and after a few hours, or days, whenever I remember to shut it off,I shut it off.
I was just thinking fill the tank every 3 days. Just run the RO/DI for X hours then wait another 3 days and refill again.

[lnevo]

Yeah that works. What time do you want it to kick in? You gonna manually turn it off still or do you want it to turn off after a set time?

Edit: nvm you said x hours.

[Spotted]

11PM would be a good time

[lnevo]

This should do it.

Code: Select all

// Set this to the port your solenoid is on.
#define ROSolenoid Port5

void RefillATO() {
  static boolean refillActive=false; // Flag to determine if we've initiated the refill.
  static time_t startedAt=0;
  
  byte startAt=23;
  byte runFor=6;
  byte runEvery=3; 
  
  if ( now()+(startAt*SECS_PER_HOUR) % (runEvery*SECS_PER_DAY)==0 ) { 
    ReefAngel.Relay.Override(ROSolenoid,1); // We turn on the solenoid port.
    startedAt=now();
    refillActive=true;
  }
  
  if ( now()-startedAt == runFor*SECS_PER_HOUR && refillActive) {
    ReefAngel.Relay.Override(ROSolenoid,0); // Back to automatic mode
    refillActive=true;
    startedAt=0;
  }
}

Let us know how it goes.

Put all of it after the last } in your code. Then in the part at the current bottom where it says place your custom code below here put the following line to activate the function

RefillATO();

Yes should work

[Spotted]

Ok, so after a really long trip out of town, I have returned!
It would appear that the code for the ATO reservoir refill does not function as hoped. Actually it does nothing. Can someone please take a look at it and tell me what needs to be done to fix it?
I really appreciate all your help on this.

[rimai]

I think it would be easier to just do this:

Code: Select all

ReefAngel.Relay.Set(Port1,(now%129600)<10800));

I have not tested, but it may be worth a try.
129600=number of seconds in 3 days
10800=number of seconds in 3 hours
It will turn on for 10800 seconds every 129600 seconds.
It will always turn on starting at midnight.

[Spotted]

Ok, so remove this

Code: Select all

// Set this to the port your solenoid is on.
#define ROSolenoid Box2_Port6

void RefillATO() {
  static boolean refillActive=false; // Flag to determine if we've initiated the refill.
  static time_t startedAt=0;
  
  byte startAt=23;
  byte runFor=6;
  byte runEvery=3; 
  
  if ( now()+(startAt*SECS_PER_HOUR) % (runEvery*SECS_PER_DAY)==0 ) { 
    ReefAngel.Relay.Override(ROSolenoid,1); // We turn on the solenoid port.
    startedAt=now();
    refillActive=true;
  }
  
  if ( now()-startedAt == runFor*SECS_PER_HOUR && refillActive) {
    ReefAngel.Relay.Override(ROSolenoid,0); // Back to automatic mode
    refillActive=true;
    startedAt=0;
  }

It has to be on loop section or it will only work at boot and never again.
setup() section only happens on boot and loop() section happens all the time.

Sorry, I forgot the parenthesis.

Hi Roberto, I'm trying to check if this change is working, but I get no info on the relay activity in the portal. It says that there is no data.
The portal itself shows current data, but nothing in relay activity or in web chart.
Can you point me in the right direction?

You may need to update the firmware of wifi attachment:

Looks correct.
Are you sure your code has the correct forum username?

[Spotted]

It is. Does the forum name matter for the rest of the web portal? I am able to see all the items. I can control the relays and get updates on my parameters. The only 2 things I can't get are the relay activity and the web chart.
The Relay Activity says no data and the web chart is just blank..
Here's the code, is there a problem with it somewhere maybe?

It is probably the DDNS line.
Remove it and see if it works.

Ok, that did it.
Thanks!
Another question. I am running both my Jebao pumps on one side of my tank now, kind of like a gyre configuration. They are of course run by my RA. There are a couple lines in the code that looks like they define Sync and AntiSync. I assume that on is for on channel ,the other is the opposite channel. Is it possible to change one line so both say Sync or AntiSync and they both act as one pump even though they are on different dimming channels?
Thanks again.
