Reef Angel Forum

I bought a used RA Plus and trying to get rolling:

Code I generated from the wizard pasted below after the questions:

Is my unit a RA plus - person selling it sold it as RA plus, but doesnt say Plus on the outside -when I used the app and upload no issues while using the RA plus selected.

Wifi Related:
I can use the app/computer to view x.x.x.x:2000 and also view it externally using the external ip address on the phone app/computer outside my network
When I log in to the portal here is what I get:

Reef Angel wifi address:
My reefangelid:
rrr757
Connection Status:
Unreachable Address

Odd thing was I was able to create my labels on the portal and pull them in from the phone app.I can see there is no wifi address - assuming thats what I missed somewhere.What do I need to add to get the portal working, figured I missed/skipped a step somewhere.


Heater question: I used the heater on standardheater port7. But when I look at the relay - it's always on auto but always red(off) and my temprature is always in the range where the switch should be green any suggestions - I used the wizard to set that stuff up.

Ph - probe - I have read on and off reviews of the ph probe calibration, is it worth getting in yall's experience (yes from Texas)

I am still researching and learning, just glad I was able to get as far as I did yesterday - probably bothered the crap out of Roberto, lol.

I do have AI sol whites (2 units) and 2 jebao rw-4 that i will get cables for and program eventually so any links or code for what you have done with those would be great

I think the first thing you may be missing is that the wifi attachment hasn't contacted the portal yet to send your latest external ip address yet.
You will need to update the wifi attachment.
Follow the update instructions here: http://forum.reefangel.com/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=4601

The link you provided is to cloud wifi sample with the cloudwifi information to use. Should it be a different link, I am using the regular wifi attachment.

My bad.
I updated the post with the correct link.

Any idea on the heater issue based on the code of why it shows red when it should be green? I just talked with the previous owner, he said he upgraded the board to a plus.

I will try out the wifi fix tomorrow.

Heater will turn on when it reaches 70.0 or below and turn off when it goes above 79.0.
If it is showing off at 77.0, it means it is going down and it will only turn on when it reaches 70.0.

Ah I had it backwards. Thanks so much. Will change that and test it out.

so I changed it both ways, I used the wizard and set to turn on at 70 and off at 79

generated this line: ReefAngel.StandardHeater( Port7,700,790 );

I even reversed it and still no luck, the overheat works but I cant get the plug to go from auto(red) to be on in that range? anything I am doing wrong? I am doing dry runs to make sure everything works before I start plugging it in, the heater is one that I still havent been able to get working. I also tried changing the port and same behavior?

Nevermind, found this in the forums, great explanation from Roberto:
Ok, so let me try to explain this again....
The heater will only turn on when it hit the low temp setting and turn off when it hits the high temp setting.
So, until the temp goes down to 70 degress, the heater won't turn on. The minute it hits 70, it will turn on and it will not turn off until it hits 78 degrees. The minute it hits 78, it turns off and will remain off until it hits 70 degress again and the cycle repeats.

That's exactly the same I type above, isn't it?

for some reason the latter explanation, maybe more verbose helped a dummy like me realize, lol - the wifi fix worked, I am getting there.
