Problem with ports

[lartho6]

finally got everything up and running, but i noticed last night that the lights are not turning off ports 4,5,6,7 Also port 8 is not turning on which is the return pump port i have that set to always be on. I turned off the lights manually which they did turn off, and on again. I turned the off for the night and only one came on this morning. everything else seems to be working right

can you post your code?

i tried to redo it just now but with different times to see if it turns off and on. it did work. port 1 hadnt came back on which it did work yesterday before we got it up and running.. It says that its on but it isnt working.

[rimai]

Your code is not what you said above...
Look at the code lines for always on:

Code: Select all

// Ports that are always on
 ReefAngel.Relay.On( Port1 );
 ReefAngel.Relay.On( Port6 );
 ReefAngel.Relay.On( Port7 );

And your functions:

Code: Select all

ReefAngel.StandardLights( Port2,19,0,12,45 );
 ReefAngel.StandardLights( Port3,7,0,12,37 );
 ReefAngel.StandardLights( Port4,12,49,12,40 );
 ReefAngel.StandardLights( Port5,12,51,12,46 );
 ReefAngel.StandardHeater( Port8,726,830 );

Are you sure you are not looking at the wrong ports?
Please look at the manual for port assignments.
The Client has a port assignment of the very first gen relay box. All the 2nd gen boxes got the ports reassigned.

[lartho6]

yes i know rob i did them over to make sure it wasnt me.. or something i did wrong because i noticed that. port numbers on the RA manual and the port assignments on the settings of the RA wizard are different.I noticed it yesterday so i reset the code And thats when the 1st port stopped.. and the others had issues.. So i did it over again and thats what code i sent just now.. Port 1 is always on, it wont come on at all, and when i unplug the wifi to set a code ports 3,6,8 turn off. The functions i just sent ports 2 thru 5 work fine now,

[rimai]

Do you have gen 1 or gen2 relay box?
Can you post a photo?

[lartho6]

im not sure i just ordered it the other day from you..

[rimai]

Oh, you got gen 2 then.
The wizard and manual does have the same port assignment.

[lartho6]

ok.. i dont know i must be confused i see in the manual 1 is ATO, 2 is moon lights 8 is Return pump, 10 is the communication connector and then on my Client in settings the communication connector is facing me and 8 is on the opposite side of that top right and 1 is closet to the communication connectors. im confused. But i it did go off using the code i sent. but the one thats labeled port 1 on Client will not come on. and when i unplug the wifi 2 ports stop working

[dbmet]

Is this what your looking at in the manual?

[lartho6]

yes

[rimai]

That's what I am saying...
The client has old photo as it has not been updated for a very long time.
Use the one in the manual or wizard. Those are the correct ones.

[dbmet]

Also tell Us what you have plugged in to which ports..

[lartho6]

ok so with that being said. port 8 is not working at all even though its on

[rimai]

Can you use the ControllerTesterCode and check?

ports 3 and 8 turned off when i unplugged the wifi port 1 still is not coming on even though its reading on. Are those ports suppose to turn off when i unplug the wifi if so i need to switch the setup because thats my return pump and wave maker ports

[rimai]

Did you go through every port using the joystick and tested the socket?

[lartho6]

ok found the problem its the communication cable that one port would turn on and off as i moved the controller which was when the cable was moved.. i guess i need to order a new one.. that may be my problem.... ok finally got everything number the way it should.. thanks guys..
