    How does one reconnect a Hydros controller when traveling

    I have never had an issue with it reconnecting and I have 15 controllers in one of my collectives. I do have my own wifi router and do not use one supplied by my cable company. So if I have internet I can always check on the the controllers. I do also have a UPS for the router and cable modem...

    Turn off output (I.e. multiple pumps managed through constant on/off power logic) when Feed Device active

    I used a output that is triggered using the feeder output. I also set the minimum on time to 30 minutes. I called it Feed Mode and I use it to either turn off the output via the output's depends on or switch to the feed mode schedule using the schedules depends on. Set the feed mode schedule...

    Hydros DRIVE PORT feeder constant connection notifications

    I don't see that you have an alert setup in that output. Are you sure you are not getting alerts for a previously setup output? If an alert is active and you delete the associated input or output you will continue to get the alerts since they are in the que and will remain there until you clear...

    Why does the kraken power supply have two power output cables?

    That supply may have other uses besides the Kraken that is not known to us at this time. Either one will work with the Kraken.

    Varios 6 Pump, Long Ramp - Soft Start

    I have not tried this but you have a schedule for the pump. If you could create a schedule that has a lower speed and use a output to select that schedule using the depends on in the schedule and use the return coming on as the input and set a maximum on time for that output and set run past max...

    Hydros Smartplug link but not connecting.

    The communications between the controllers and power plugs are a Tuya protocol communications and is done locally and not through the cloud but my understanding is both need to be on the same access points for them to communicate correctly. When pairing make sure the device the app is installed...

    Hydros Smartplug link but not connecting.

    The device and controller have to be on the same access point to be able to talk to each other. Also your wifi may block that type of communication since it is a business.

    Forced to change WiFi, and now this system has become a nightmare.

    Yes, when you are setting up wifi devices your device you are using with the app on it has to be on the channel you want the wifi device on. In this case that would be the channel with to controller that will be controlling it.

    IV showing error and no readings

    They are not as precise as the X10 pumps would be but that is still close.

    Firmware 388 / App 3.6.0 (362)

    Are you sure they are just not connecting to wifi any longer. You can use the left menu and the + sign to setup the wifi info again. Just don't change the controller name. You will need to do this for any controllers that did not reconnect to the wifi.

    IV showing error and no readings

    Have you calibrated you pH probe. Those calibration numbers are not right, There should be a mv offset for pH 7 and a percentage on the pH 10 and pH calibration points. The percentage should be around 100%. Yours is showing 0% for both. The pH 4 calibration is needed when using the pH probe in...

    After firmware update hydros wont connect to wifi

    you don't have to be logged into the controller. Use the + sign in upper right of left menu and the select the controller you want to change the wifi settings on. This is the same way you originally set them up but don't change the controller name.

    Automatic Water Change Not Running

    For one you don't want to turn off anything that will affect the normal running water level since the AWC uses that water level. Also the AWC output does need to control you ATO pump since the water level sensor needs to be wet to start the AWC. and the fill pump will run till it is wet again...
