Profilux II plus aquarium controller

[Matthias Gross]

Hi
@Albert: Not all pumps can be dimmed by the reduction of the voltage (AC-side). It depends on the motor type, the pump-producer can give this information. If the pump is dimmable by reducing the mains voltage you will be able to control the pump with our new dimmable socket - coming soon.
Vortech: I can't promis this feature at the moment.
@Ginzo: That doesn't work. These USB-WLAN adapters are constructed for the PC-side, you can't connect it to ProfiLux. It's the same like connecting a USB-WLAN to a printer or other device - not possible.

matthias,
question for you. with the new firmware is it possible to control more then 2 tunzes? just today i connected a third tunze to the system using the L1-L2 splitter but i realized that the controller only has the capability now to control 2 current pumps. what i mean by this is 2 of the 3 tunzes now are doing the same function in random mode.

Besides the standard controlling mode (switching with hysteresis) we added new modes. Now are proportional controllers available with adjustable pulse/pause times.

I have firmware 3.01 and this pulse/pause does not work properly. It does add pulse and pause, but if i set pulse lenght anything between couple minutes and 1 hour, it results in max couple of minutes long pulse.

Is it a bug in 3.01 (fixed in 3.02 maybe??) or is the problem in my unit?

OK, the pulse lenght means maximum time for the pulse. I need to read better (and increase hysteresis) .

@niloc: at the moment only 2 pumps (or groups) can be controlled independently. I am not sure how to programm a mode for more than 2 pumps. Now it is easy - 2 pumps, one ebb, other flood and vv. But how can i program 3 or more pumps?
@jukka: i must be honest with you - firmware 3.01 has a little bug regarding the pulse/pause mode. Durations longer than 256s (damned BYTES and WORDS...) can't be calculated. From 3.02 this function is OK.

Thanks Matthias,

Can we expect at some point an update to the firmware that will enable us to send an email when an alarm goes off..or an SMS ?

Regards,
Ginzo

Now if somebody could only explain to me the "probe holder pieces" that came with my Profilux..I'm a little baffled at how to set them up ?

whoa ! would have taken me forever to figure that out !

Thanks for the post !

Here's the picture in question:

Out of curiousity, is there a different number of upgradable slots between the Basic package and the Complete package? If so, how many slots?
