its just my opinion but i think your life would be easier just sticking with the controller the wavebox came with and also it will keep from taking up a port on your controller

enter the values in "mode", "duration" and "waves" of the first pump group

the 1-10V-settings have to be done under "extras -> 1-10V-interfaces".
I recommend to set the voltages to Min = 3V and Max = 8V, then the voltage output is similar to the output of the original controller.

and last but not least: Its very helpful to read the manual closely, chapter "current" because we have a lot of options for the current simulation which can be set, many more like the original controller has.

Default WLAN setup

I am still waiting for the new firmware and software to set up my ProfiLux Plus II controller with the WLAN.
Hope it come up with the easiest procedure for that.

Please let me know if that posible this weekend.

Thanks

Lam

Default She Loves Me

So I'm sitting at home last night and my coralife powerbar failed.... so I was planning a DIY powerbar with heavy duty timers and all the good stuff and my wife asked how much it would cost to put it all together. Once she determined that it would be too pricey to let me continue.... I got my birthday present a couple of weeks early...



This morning I found a nice little box waiting with my coffee and am now trying to figure out all the gadgets on my new profilux controller!!

Anyways, aside from the announcement I do have a few quick questions, there will probably be tons more as I set this up afterwork tonight.

1) I've noticed it says in several places in the manual to not use an interface cable that didn't come from GHL as there are signals being transmitted that are meant for the remote display. My laptop doesn't have a serial port, however I do have a serial to usb connector that I purchased from Best Buy. If I connect that GHL cable to the profilux and Then use the USB-> SERIAL adaptor to hook up to my computer will I have any issues?

2) I can't find any information on these dimmable light bars other than the fact that they are over a hundred bucks each, could someone fill me in on size/wattage, etc. They do look neat... has anyone actually tried the "lightning storm" feature? Is there some benefit to corals/fish or is it just a "because we can" feature?

3) I noticed that there was mention of Dimmable sockets in the thread, will these function on the same idea as the Seio multicontroller? Any rough guesses as to when we might see these?

4) I am currently running a Giesseman eco 230 2x250watt HQI, 2x54watt T-5 fixture over the tank, does anyone know if the t-5 ballast is dimmable? I e-mailed Giesseman earlier but haven't heard back yet

Being at work instead of home setting this up is killing me!!!!

Cheers

I can answer the RS232 question. I read this in another forum and is a direct quote from Matthias.

"ProfiLux Plus II has as standard a built-in RS232-interface, always. This can be used to connect it to PC (to RS232, or if not available, to USB using a standard RS232-USB-converter) or to connect an external display, ProfiLux View."

I cant answer the other questions because I am not familiar with them.
