i set up thehydros x4 yesterday and after figuring out wifi issues i set up power bars today. pretty straight forward and only took about 30 min but i still have a few questions.
what do the lights mean? blue is good. Red is not conected. Yellow is trying to connect? Green is ?
i couldnt figure out the flow pump speed range reverse etc, so i set mine as generic always on except water change and feed mode. Is there a better way to do it? Also i have jebao flow pumps. Is there a way to control them through x4 controler or do i need wavengine ?
skimmer was simple
sump/ refugium light simple
heaters i set 77.5 to 80. i use eheim jager heaters and and set the thermostat at 78ish. this way i use the heater thermostat and keep powerbar from cycling on off too much. Is this right way to do it ?
1 issue, both heaters have same settings but on the app one heater is OFF. Temp is 77.9-78. it should be ON until it reaches 80. Like the other heater. Any reason for this ?
other then that my setup is pretty simple the controller is more just a timer and monitor for now. still have to setup the ato and and wifi feeder i got today. wont use the feeder daily but if im out and cant be there to feed i like being able to press a button.
im happy as is but if anyone has any ideas or tips on how i can make it run better or different way to set up let me know. attaching pic to give an idea
