Jebao Reef Crest question

I have my reefcrest set to 45,12 - why does it go as low as 25% - shouldn't this give me a min of 33% and a max of 57%?

Good question. Same thing with mine, not sure why this happens.

Curious if your pump is set to sync or antisync?

If you are using the dosing pump class, it is hard coded to +/-10% for lagoon and +/-20% for reefcrest

Daylight is true
Actinic is false
So anti sync... Right?
it's pre set to 20 so if you put 12 like the OP it's combined? Like 32 + - ?

This is the SetMode function for the DCPump class:
Code: Select all
void DCPumpClass::SetMode(byte mode, byte speed, byte duration)

can you elaborate how i would use that base on my code?
ReefAngel.DCPump.SetMode( ReefCrest,wpWavStr,wpWavOff );

You can't.
Like I said.
Reef Crest is hard coded to 20% and Lagoon to 10%.
If you want to do your own function, you will need to use the custom mode.

Code: Select all
if (ReefAngel.DCPump.Mode==Custom) {
ReefAngel.DCPump.UseMemory=false;
ReefAngel.PWM.SetDaylight(ReefCrestMode(ReefAngel.DCPump.Speed,ReefAngel.DCPump.Duration, ReefAngel.DCPump.DaylightChannel-1));
ReefAngel.PWM.SetActinic(ReefCrestMode(ReefAngel.DCPump.Speed,ReefAngel.DCPump.Duration, ReefAngel.DCPump.ActinicChannel-1));
} else {
ReefAngel.DCPump.UseMemory=true;
}
although Roberto, I think we should allow Duration to be part of the default mode for ReefCrest. You could say ReefAngel.DCPump.Duration for Lagoon and ReefAngel.DCPump.Duration*2 for ReefCrest. That's my $.02 Just seems a waste of custom mode :)Re: Jebao Reef Crest question

Isn't it just going to confuse people?
Set offset with the duration field?

I set my reefcrest to a certain strength depending on the hour. I wanted to take advantage of the new class and just set my portal settings to custom.
