    Adding a fan to XP8

    you would have to have it in a collective with a controller with sense ports and have a temp sensor connected to one of the sense ports. Here is a couple of screenshot of my output for my cooling fans and they are on an XP8 output. I have 2 temp sensors one is on an X3 controller and the other...

    Xp8 help!

    Yes if you use the corrent output type. The advanced generic output type has a schedule if you turn on has internal schedule in the settings. Here is an output where I use the schedule in a generic output. This is used to turn on my output that powers the solenoid on the input solenoid for my...

    AWC Icecap ATO not filling.. help

    For one thing after a drain and fill completes the ATO will not run for several minutes. Any top off done during that time frame will be from the fill pump and not the ATO pump. Here is a screenshot of my last water change. As you can see the fill pump was doing the topoffs during that time...

    Optical Level sensor pump control

    If you need an example I use the generic output for my skimmer since I have several inputs that control it. Below is a screenshot of the input part of the settings for it. I have it set to 3 inputs. They are sump high, leak at tank and skimmer full. Since I only want the output on when all those...

    Optical Level sensor pump control

    Use advanced family generic output type with 1 input unless you also have other inputs you want ti use. For that input set it to active when dry since you want the pump on unless the sensor is wet.

    Upgrades xp8 and kraken

    It is best for the Kraken to get it own AC. I use a power strip to connect the Kraken to an AC outlet. It is even on a different wall outlet than the XP8. The XP8 is on the other side of the tank from the Kraken anyway on my setup.

    Just get another XP8 or if you don't need power monitoring you can get a Start or Launch which have 4 AC outlets each.

    Xp8 help!

    You can use one stand alone but you would be limited to scheduled type outputs since it has no inputs for temp sensors so you could not control a heater or cooling device with it as stand alone, but if it is in a collective with a controller with a temp sensor connected to a sense port you could...

    There is a RODI output type you can use.It has outputs for the solenoid to turn on the water, output for flush valve solenoid and one for a booster pump. It also has input assignments for the low level sensor and high level sensor. If you do not have either the flush valve or the booster pump...

    Xp8 help!

    Did you create an output yet? Nothing will show up under output till you create one. Also the XP8 does not have any inputs so you will need another controller also for any inputs you want to use to control an output with. You will also need a command bus cable and a couple of terminators so you...

    Did the original owner delete it from their account. You won't be able to add it to your account and setup wifi without them deleting it from there account. It also will not show any outputs until you create some.

    Are you just refilling one reservoir with it? If so you will need a low level sensor and a high level sensor and at least one solenoid. I refill my DI reservoir and my mix tank with mine. SoI need a low level and a high level sensor for each. I also need an output solenoid for each. I also have...

    Hydros start

    The Start controller was not around when I first setup my Hydros at my mixing station. I got a X4 to begin with and added 2 X2's and an XS at first. I now have a Kraken, Blenny, Minnow and a Launch at the mixing station. Not all of that is for controlling the RODI though. I have a build thread...

    Lithium POS4life battery on WE2?

    Which wave engine has drive ports? I thought they were all direct drive ports for powering BLDC type motors. those output three phase signals to the three wires and the amount depends on the motor that is connected to the port which is selected when setting up the output.
