Exclamation Why Buy a ProfiLux Controller

I think this is most probably the greatest tool in the ProfiLux's chest for savings anyones tank.

The GHL flow meter which can be programmed to turn off a failed pump and turn on a redundancy pump automatically, plus other great uses





This is why people that are serious about they're tanks use ProfiLux because it has the tools to reliably save your tank from crashes due to mechanical failures.

GHL ProfiLux remains the professional choice

So let me get this correct the only way Mac users can interface with the profilux is either through an emulator or via P3 yes?

Catherine, I have my profilux through my Mac via parallels. I have the remote app as well and can access it from work. I just set up my P3 now and am just starting to get everything set up and connected, but it seems to work just fine. Now I have just updated to parallels 8 and windows 8pro, they work very well together and so far I have not had much troubles getting things to work.

I'm fed up with DA's non-existant progress with certain RKE changes and am actively looking for another controller to run my new system, however I need mac compatibility without any hassle of having to rig something together to "sort of" make it work.

How easy was it for you to do all of what you mentioned above? Also do you work in IT or have a computer background? Back when I bought my RKE I passed over the profilux for two reasons; a) no mac compatibility and b) it seemed like a lot of early adopters had issues or struggled with set-up and some consistent running issues. Granted it seems like both these issues have been solved, but how well?
