Profilux II plus aquarium controller

[michika]

I'm looking to by the wireless package and I have few questions after having gone over this thread:

1) As I understand the unit isn't mac compatable unless your using a window's emulator program is this correct?
2) Are there any future plans for the following monitors: nitrates, calcium, alk, and salinity?

Hi,

here the answers:
1) As I understand the unit isn't mac compatable unless your using a window's emulator program is this correct?
- Yes, the software ProfiLuxControl is written for Windows. But i am not sure if the WLAN/LAN-configuration tools (DeviceInstaller/Redirector) work under emulator since they use direct hardware access. This software is developed by Lantronix- so we have no access to the detaills regarding this software
2) Are there any future plans for the following monitors: nitrates, calcium, alk, and salinity?
- Monitoring/measuring salinity is allready possible with our conductivity extension card and the cond.-probe.
The problem for the other ones is the extremely high price for good and suitable probes. I think no one will pay these prices. And we don't want to offer cheap, not reliable probes. I hope we will find a solution for this dilemma in the future.

Regards
Matthias

Hello AquaCan

in my opinion it is NOT neccessary to update the firmware of the WLAN-card.
The card works with the firmware ex-works and the update may be risky.
That's why we don't support after sales firmware updates.

If you want more information you can visit the site of the producer of the radio module - Lantronix (www.lantronix.com).
