So if someone were looking for a really good deal on one of these controllers now would be a good time to see if you want to sell or give it away? JK
Sorry I can't offer any advise Colin - I am a total idiot when it comes to computors and stuff.
I really hope you get it figured out as from all the reviews they are supposed to work really well.

i dont have a problem with the controller itself, it works amazing but the wireless feature is a PITA. if you were here trying to help me hook it up and it still didnt work then i would probably give it to you ruth. JK. one day maybe i'll get it to go

Colin

have you hooked your lights up too it yet? If so what kind of lights are you running are they just switched or are you dimming them? I had one of my atinics stay on the other day the indicator light on the power bar was off but the out let still had power when the cycle came around again in the AM for the lights to come on and off they turned off and have worked fine ever since then So if you ever have this problem let it run through the cycle and see if it corrects it self

Later

thanks for the info doug, as of now i have nothing connected to it. i've been fighting the bloody thing to get it to connected wirelessly to the computer so until i figure that out i cant install it under the stand. lucky me.

I mounted mine on top of my cap for now as I want to keep it away from all the moisture and salt from the sump because as you probly noticed when you put your cards in it is not a sealed unit and I can just imagine what a few years of salt would do to the inside of it once I build my tank utility room in the basement and move my sump down there I will move it and even then it will be in a sealed cabinet to protect it

ok guys i need some help, finally i have some communication between the controller and the computer but during setup it now wants to me manually assign an ip address. it states to never select auto ip address. but i dont have a clue how to manual assign an ip. i typed in the ip address of the computer but the setup says that the ip is already in use by the computer. PLEASE help if you have any clue what to do

I don't have much experience with wireless networking but if you need to manually assign an IP just pick an address 1 different from your computers.

eg.
computer: 192.168.0.1
controller: 192.168.0.2

i think this is where maybe i was going wrong, i was altering a number in the first and second set of numbers. thanks for the help. i'll let you know tomorrow if it works. it would have been nice to have someone jump up from profilux and help me out here.

well i finally got the unit configured to my computer but assuming i have made a small mistake or missing something because when i try to connect now it cannot find the unit and says to check settings and ports. the advice you guys gave on the ip address worked. i setup the redirector and followed the instructions but the unit will not connect.

Swing ding! I just got my Profilux!

Now all I need is a tank...
