Manual inputs

[MMcKenna1029]

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 directly related to reef management. I currently maintain multiple spreadsheets, an aquatic log count, and now have my hydros.

I suggest:

• Add a key in, (manual), data point as an input. This way non automated testing can be tracked using the 1 software interface. I don't think this at all takes away from selling items such as alkatronic & mastertronic...
• A way to create an equipment library that can then be linked to outputs/inputs. The goal here would be to track equipment, setup preventative maintenance / cleaning schedules. You could set equipment replacement / retirement dates. I would be willing to bet most people either do this through some sort of spreadsheet, wing it, or just don't do it at all.

I think this level of reef management in one package would be a huge value add! Think full reef management solution.

Thanks,
Matt

You can now add manual test data info into hydros: App & Firmware Update

Love it! One add-on. Can salinity be split into two versions? PSU and SG?

Please disregard or delete. I see that all I had to do was change my default salinity units to SG in the option menu.
