With the latest FW/SW release of App 374 and FW 323, alkalinity testing using any other device than an X10 has now been opened to everyone. That being said, using this function on any other device than an X10 requires some considerations to ensure proper operation. This method of iV also is...
Also please understand how wire gauge, assembly and soldering impacts the power handling of any DIY cables! Using the incorrect wire size or connector CAN be a fire risk. Yes force ports are low voltage but you can still create a fire risk from improperly making DIY cables if you don’t fully...
The 2 and 4 pin connectors you have listed here are not compatible with the drive and force port connectors on the Kraken. These will not work. You need GX12 style connectors.
These are the GX12 pigtails you would need:

As you see, they aren't that...
always calibrate with tank water since thats what the iV uses during tests. and yes, take the weighed sample and divide it and then use that result in the app.
You can mix your own reagent using this Alkalinity Testing Machine Concentrated Reagent
Or this (Amazon.com) it is the same concentration.
Just need to dilute it 1:4 with RODI (so 1 part acid/reagent to 4 parts RODI). I recommend using volumetric flasks for this, since they are very accurate...
This DIY tutorial shows you how to run some Jebao 24V pumps on a Kraken Force Port AND be able to take advantage of battery mode (12V). Note: this is a DIY method and please understand everything in this guide before attempting, failure to do so could damage your equipment. Coralvue, nor I...
This DIY tutorial shows you how to run some 36VDC devices (like the Varios 6/8) on a Kraken Force (24V) port. Note: this is a DIY method and please understand everything in this guide before attempting, failure to do so could damage your equipment. Coralvue, nor I, take any responsibility. Got...
Also check if your reagent is mixed correctly:
Reagent Testing:
- There is a way to use Salifert Alk testing kit to verify your diluted reagent.
- First test your sample water using the salifert kit as directed, note the ALK value produced by the test.
- Second, re-test again using fresh sample...
Highly suggest using a scale to calibrate both the sample and reagent pumps. See here the details on how to do so and account for density for salt water: iV/X10 Setup Suggestions
Other things to check:
- make sure the iV is no more than 3 ft away from the X10, closer the better
- also try to...
Here are a few suggestions for those running the iV/X10 to improve performance based on my personal experience with the X10:
Having accuracy issues?
- Read the suggestions below.
- Make sure your dosing tubes are fully placed onto the dosing head nipples as far as possible! Prevents air leaks...
I don’t think that adapter cable will work. I found the method outlined here worked best for me.
