Last problem post I swear. I had RF setup before and thanks to Roberto I figured out that I am a moron. Lol. But when I first plugged in RF it was already solid purple. I have RA+ is there something im missing? I had this setup for long time and I feel like a newb when I have to tweak things.

It should be good.
Why do you think you may be missing something?

Posted: **Sun Oct 07, 2012 6:17 pm**

Can't link them. Don't I need it flashing to make pumps slaves

Posted: **Sun Oct 07, 2012 7:05 pm**

Ahh, if you are trying to sync them, you need to load the VortechSetup code.
File->Sketchbook->Example Codes->VortechSetup
Then, follow the manual for syncing instructions.

linked vortechs. also linked water level. what a day! heres my question, on forums portal I change modes and it says ok and done, but no speed change. what I do wrong?

Posted: **Sun Oct 07, 2012 8:44 pm**

Can I see your code?
You must use UseMemory=true to be able to change on the Portal

Code: Select all

ReefAngel.RF.UseMemory=true;

I will attempt when I get home @ 545. But I will say one thing since I upgraded to RA + and used wizard instead of old method my heater port 3 was not auto engaging either. Lol I am so not a helpless person usually but I am so lost. And I must thank you rimai for all your help

Posted: **Mon Oct 08, 2012 4:47 pm**

ok since I am a newb at code, how can I send you my code with out going nuts trying to unplug everything? Lol I am so lost.

Posted: **Mon Oct 08, 2012 5:30 pm**

Not following....
You can just paste the code in here?

Posted: **Mon Oct 08, 2012 5:35 pm**

But I made code then added water level and RF so how do I copy and paste whole code?

Posted: **Mon Oct 08, 2012 5:50 pm**

Open the Arduino App and highlight your code and right click and copy if your on a windows computer?
Then Paste it here for him to see..

How about I start over. When I goto reef angel select wizard and start from scratch should I do set for code (new users) or set internal memory? After that I select my settings for port 1 time schedule port 2 time schedule port 3 heater port 4 fan port 5 & 6 unused port 7 dosing pump 1 and port 8 dosing pump 2. RF vortech reefcrest and set internal generate successful.
After I did that I resynced the vortechs since they and the RF module where not there and reset water level out of water and in water. When all said and done I have on android app water percentage temp Ph etc. Heaters I have to override lights are way off and need to be manually set and I can read and write memory on android app but when everything set to auto it is either all on or off. On portal it is showing way off options. I know this is something I am doing g completely wrong and I feel so helpless.. do any of those steps sound ridiculous?

Posted: **Mon Oct 08, 2012 7:50 pm**

If you want to be able to change settings on the portal or android app, you must choose to store settings on internal memory.
This is what is going to place the correct settings in the memory and should also show the correct settings on both Portal and Android.
If you don't choose internal memory, all apps are just going to start pulling whatever crap is currently stored.
Then at the end, it will show you the code you uploaded, which you can save if you wish or not. You can always generate it again.

I did that the second time. I will try again when im not exhausted. Ty. I will try again

Good.
You are missing the RF stuff, so just add this to your loop():

Code: Select all

    ReefAngel.RF.UseMemory=true;

Posted: **Tue Oct 09, 2012 7:35 pm**

I add that at the end? where shall I put it?

    ////// Place your custom code below here
    

    ////// Place your custom code above here

perfect, one question. got the vortechs working. one question I have water level sensor setup but its not at moment. When I add the code to the RA for expansion I lose my settings

Posted: **Tue Oct 09, 2012 8:04 pm**

??
Can you rephrase?

Posted: **Tue Oct 09, 2012 8:06 pm**

water level isnt in the wizard so I have to add the code to RA so I get everything workign except water level with posted code

Posted: **Tue Oct 09, 2012 8:09 pm**

Correct, all you need to do is manually add the water level stuff now.

Posted: **Tue Oct 09, 2012 8:13 pm**

where shall I put it? I am looking at the code that worked and not wanting to lose all my progress. I am sorry roberto, I am going to be adding relay expansion since I need more amperage draw for lights and heaters. So I am at least buying stuff lol

before I mess anything up, this should be sent to RA as is and is all my code or is it need me to add anything else.

Posted: **Tue Oct 09, 2012 8:35 pm**

ok posted and water level is there but no vortech control from portal and that custom code is there

NVM now it works! roberto u r the man I am sorry I am so slow
