Reef Angel Forum

So I compiled a new file for my reefangel with the wizard, Is this file really too big or am I doing something wrong. I just have the standard reefangel

save your file, close and restart arduino, try again. Arduino tends to hold things in memory causing a problem like this. Not saying this file is NOT too big, just something to try.

Do you have the RS or the RA+?
If you have the RA chances are very good that the file is too big.
The new libraries have a lot in there and it does not leave you much room for your code.

The DCPump class is very large. You could remove it and use the PWM functions directly to control your pumps.

how do I use the PWM functions directly to control my pumps, can I use like crest mode and all of that?

The wave patterns are in this thread that Roberto created.

The way you would code Long Pulse on the Daylight Dimming Channel is like this..

ReefAngel.PWM.SetDaylight( LongPulseMode(45,70,10,true));

This is a minimum speed of 45% and maximum speed of 70% with a 10 second duration and the pumps in sync if you had multiple pumps.

Long Pulse
PulseMinSpeed - % for minimal speed
PulseMaxSpeed - % for maximum speed
PulseDuration - Duration (seconds) in which each pulse will be held. The pump will stay at minimal speed for PulseDuration and will stay at maximum speed for PulseDuration.
PulseSync - true if you want to sync pumps to same cycle. one false and one true if you want to anti-sync pumps.

awesome thanks for the info maybe a little more research on my part and I would have found it

It's kind of hard to find. I just knew about it because I stumbled on it a while back.
Good luck with it.
