Is there any way to setup a very simple on/off based on the PH value as an input? Everything I have tried seems to want to set a high point and low point which does not get me the effect I am looking for as the resolution is too low. Ideally, without having PH as a 2 place decimal control...

Sending this back to the top again... I really like the hydros controller but am frustrated with the lack of updates for items which seem like they should be simple... PH needs to be 2 decimal control Why do I have to lie to my dosing pump.... Its ridiculous.... There should be no max...

So I am new to controllers. The Hydros is my first and it has now been running for around a month. X3 & XP8. I've never had the ability to monitor and control elements of my tank to this degree and quite frankly, I feel spoiled. I am in no way claiming that achieving this level of stability...

Sending this back to the top. I am having the same issue. Using this to assist in any type of PH control is not working. My swing is only .08. Would like to remove all swing and have the methods to do it but the controller will not support. Can we get this updated? Thanks, Matt

This is great! Would be really nice on ATO containers, and mixing stations. I don't have an X4 but was looking at getting a wave engine for my powerheads. Any reason the 0-10v input on the wave engine could not be used for this?

Danny, Thanks for the feedback! I used your method and it worked well. First feeding cycle went off without a hitch. I have taken that method and now created 2 feeding schedule outputs to offset the 3 pumps coming back online. I'll see how that works at the next feeding cycle. It is not...

So I am at a loss trying to find how to do this and perhaps you cannot but it seems incredibly intuitive to me that it would be an option. Can I trigger a mode on a schedule or some type of timer? The schedule seems like it is limited to a few basic scenarios. All I would like to do is to...

I second this request. Getting my kalk dosing setup and while the system can be cheated its seems odd you would have to... The dosing is pretty restrictive as is. Thanks, Matt

Danny, Thanks for the thought. To start I am going to setup the main display AWC and then I'll start playing from there. My thought has always been that setting it up like this would allow the frag QT tank to sit at the same parameters as the main tank but perhaps not worth it... We shall...

I have a question regarding AWC in multiple tanks. The precanned programming for the AWC is pretty slick and I just ordered dosing pumps to set this up for the main tank. What I would like to do though is setup an AWC that does the following: Pulls water from Frag QT tank to waste Refills...

So I just setup my new Hydros system. I started with an X3, an XP8 and 2 wifi 4x strips. I have never had a controller before so this is pure luxury. Very excited about where I can take this. I have two recommendations and while neither are directly related to reef automation they are...
