Reef Angel Forum

I am looking at getting the WIFI module and noticed this note on the product description "Note: The preloaded code will not communicate with this attachment without code modification." Does this mean it is not plug and play? Thanks!

It mean's the pre-loaded program doesn't have wifi support and you'll need to upload your first program to use the wifi. It's very easy to add wifi support (1-line basically) to the pre-loaded program if that works for you, but more than likely you'll be customizing anyway and starting with the wizard generated code.

Thanks again! I just installed my new RA+ and only have the heater, temp and ph probes connected at this time and the preload is fine for right now. I was wanting the wifi as the lcd is hard for me to read because of the small font size and figured it would be easier on my laptop. Does the wizard give me the 1 line of code to upload to the controller? Sorry for the very basic questions.

I think without checking it's ReefAngel.Portal("orucco");

That goes at the end of the loop function

The Wizard will take care of it.

Great! Thanks to all!
