Can the stirrer on the ice cap kalk reactors be run off a drive port?

Copy, they used to be affiliated…right. but now maxs is a brs entity. Fair enough. Well I will hang tight and see what more is offered in this chat.

Are these hydros wave engine direct drive compatable? With the existing xf adapters? Gotta say I wish these new products coming out were clearly marked with the hydros ready badging.

purchased the v2 and it’s up and running on hydros. Good so far. 1) what is the hydros standard advance roller time setting? 2) does anyone have a better gasket solution than the razor thin gasket provided. It’s ridiculous trying to get that gasket to seat properly against the sock holder tray.

the other drive port has hydros micro pump for ato. What happens when I get this wrong and I overshoot the current, watts whatever? Is the hydros device fried? what happened to this light????

i know, but i bought into hydros for declutter and automation, and i have an unused drive port so i wanted to use it.

how do I make this happen? There was an out of the box solution alluded to on a cvtv episode but doesnt look like it made it to market…I’m not savy with this kind of diy.

so can you confirm my understanding of my ato settings. Min off time - 42min gets triggered 2 ways - 1) by return pump off 2) typical ato operation. Is this also why I see the ato pump output in “off waiting” status - its in the 42 minute forced off window. Max off time - 6hr is a...

The hydros branded sensors are up on cv website. https://www.coralvue.com/hydros-flow-sensors I am ordering 3/4” tonight. They come with a pair of unions it appears. Don’t know if that’s a common inclusion with meters or not but nice at any rate.

is the 750 gmp max really valid for the 4”? I have more flow than that, will this thing really not work properly with 1000-1100 gmp?

Bump @Carlos @Danny I know you guys are the experts!

I see the v2 was just released for the klir’s. I am not finding much detail on the upgrades, other than a new water sensor and controller…both of which I believe are irrelevant if I were to connect to hydros. So I will ask, are there other updates in the v2 versions that I should know about…or...

@Danny thanks for the screen shots. Very helpful. Can you clarify something, the minimum off time you have as 10 min…that means the skimmer stays off for an additional 10 min after the return turns back on.

i am getting confused with the command bus and terminator recommendations on the getting started page. i have power to x4 and command bus connecting the x4 and xp8 and then a terminator on xp8. is this the proper wiring? the collective 101 page states 2 terminators are preferred, maybe that...

Is manual entry of water parameters natively in the app on the desired features list? This thread went (rightfully so, love the data collection piece for diy purposes) beyond the OP initial ask. I get the 5 day limit on graphing it out, but even providing the data in tabular form with time...

thanks @Danny and @Carlos ! appreciate the clarity!

Thanks! Fair point but I look at it like this. The setup I’m goin for has 3 levels of control. 1) inkbird set to 78 +- .5 2) built in heater tstat set to 79 ish - to protect an inkbird fail on scenario 3) hydros temp sensor controlling xp8 outlet set to 79 as last line of defense Maybe I am...

Ok, I think I am asking a similar question I just don’t have a chiller in the mix, only heaters. But having reread this thread 3 times I still cannot understand this. Below is the heater output set up on a xp8 outlet. So this isn’t a range setting, but I can’t wrap my head around the...

@tonybuonantuono We’re you able to get this to work. I want to work this same setup in my cabinet.
