Reef Angel Forum

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.

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

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,

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

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

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

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

Is this what your looking at in the manual?

yes

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.

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

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

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

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

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..
