Hello, this was a very informative video!!.. does this work the same for a Profilux 3.1Ex, and do you need such a breakoutbox for each Kessil A80 individuali or can you combine 2 lights on 1 breakoutbox?
@KR-id6bl
@KR-id6bl Жыл бұрын
You would still need the Breakout Box as it will be connected to the 3.1Ex 1-10 Port. You use the same breakout box for both and use both channels. I have not tried to chain 2 of them together on the same port, but the Breakout box supports two channels so could easily use 1 channel for the 1 light and the second for the other.

Nice lids, but I think you will find that center lid being solid will cause issues. Salt creep and water splashes will dry on it causing less light to penetrate it. It will become another piece that requires cleaning. Not the end of the world but can be an issue if you become lazy like me. lol good luck with your beautiful tank.

Yes, I used to be heavily invested in Neptune Systems but had a tank crash caused by the system that the techs at the time could not explain as the unit was running, but logs were not being produced, but it just felt like dosing everything into the tank at once. When it happened, I was across the county and could not do anything till taking a red-eye home, and the damage was done. That was almost five years ago, and I never looked back after the change. Since switching, I get my every 2-hour tank report via email and text messages of alarms. Most importantly, I have not had a unit crash, been away multiple times across the county, and never experienced an issue.

Hey, thanks so much for making this video. What IP address do you use to create the static IP? Is it the exact same IP address as your wifi network? Or do you modify the last part of it to create its own unique IP? Thanks in advance.
@KR-id6bl
@KR-id6bl 2 жыл бұрын
It would not be the exact IP of your Wifi Router, as your not allowed to duplicate an IP Address. So for example my IP router is 192.168.0.254 with a subnet of 255.255.255.0, I tell people to minus 10 from the IP of the router so 192.168.0.244, with a subnet of 255.255.255.0 with a default gateway of your router of 192.168.0.254 and with a DNS of 4.2.2.1.

Ich hätte gerne den Mondzyklus, aber ich kann es nicht. Können Sie mir helfen, die Einstellungen in GHL vorzunehmen? Herzlich, Joel Bonjour, Je possède une Mitras Lightbar avec profilux 3.

Are you asking does the tube length between the to units needs to be exact? When it comes to the unit being side by side or stack configuration you need to cut the dosing tube to the recommend length in inches or cm outline in the manual. But the water supply line and exit line length can be variable.

Do you know if they defaulted the Doser when they gave it to you? it may have already had the hotspot turned off for you to configure. If this is the case, you would need to use the legacy Desktop Windows Application and connect to it via the USB port. Or contact support and ask if their another way to default the device.

I ask people what are they looking to do with the controller? How many things are you going to want to control with the power strip? Do you need to monitor Salinity? Create a list and then look at the options. I am using this on a seahorse tank, a jellyfish tank and it works great. I can use the feed mode, control Kessil lights on the 1-10 volt ports, minimal flow control with the tunze pumps on the 1-10. And it works great but on my larger tanks my 125, 250 and soon 500 it is a the full blown GHL Profilux Controller.

Hey Ditto, great to hear from you! Is there a minimum number of tests the ION D needs to make or can it simply be set to test for example once a week?
@KR-id6bl
@KR-id6bl 3 жыл бұрын
You can automatically setup a minimum of 1 to 24 test per day that will begin at specific time and then be spaced out equally based on the number of automatic tests you wish to do. For Example, if I said 2 automated test and set the time to be Noon the tests would happen every day at Noon and Midnight. I could not set it to do it only once per week as it is a once per day option. But you could set the automatic testing to 0 and manually click the start measurement now button inside the GHL connect App once a week without any problems to conduct the test. The unit is not required to test every day for it to work. Hope this answers your question.
