Reef Angel Forum

Hi

Trying to get up and running to dose using 2 pumps, (Alk & Ca).

Just received Reefangel and I have no idea what I'm doing, but managed to get temp, pH, lights, fan, and WIFI running... Despite pumps set to run every 6 hrs, they have yet to come on, (I have the discharging into a graduated cylinder to measure volume).

I installed/updated pre-installed code and used wizard to generate :dosing, temp, light dimming etc...

Do you layer codes, ie: wizard generated one over preinstalled code, (like I did)?

Or, format head unit and upload only wizard generated one?

Thanks for any help
Cheers

Post your code. Have you tried running the pumps manually and making sure they are working as expected?

Yes, both BRS pumps are brand new. I hooked them up and primed them until liquid came through.

Can my code be directly loaded over preset code?

This is the code I uploaded from wizard, PORT 3&4 for dosers:

Ha ha, I guess I couldn't see a level because it was only set for 10 sec? The wizard must of not taken my value?

I tried changing the code, I'll see if it works
ReefAngel.AddWifi();
ReefAngel.ShowInterface();
}

Yeah 10 seconds on the BRS pump is nothing, 30ml broken into 24 doses is 68 seconds every hour. I think the conversion was .0183 ml/second...
