Can someone tell me what is the diameter of the probe? Is it like the pinpoint probe at 5/8". I need to make my probe holder and like to have the exact measurements for my sump. Thanks a lot!

All those probes are the same size

I need some help with getting the WLAN setup. My wife (she's an IT Networking Project Leader) and I have spent about 10 hours trying to get the Profilux to connect via WLAN to our PC. We are both running out of patience.

My first questions is do you need to use the serial LAN connection cable (PC RS 232) in order to establish the inital Ad Hoc connection? This is the only way we were able to establish an Ad Hoc connection. Once this cable was diconnected we would lose the IP address.

Many more question to come.

I'm not sure about WLAN, but with LAN I did not have to connect with the serial cable first. I just installed and configured the Lantronix software and the COM redirector and it worked with no problems at all. Ofcourse, WLAN could be different? not entirely sure...

mnsps, you do have to use the serial cable intially to do all the settings. but i have the EXACT same problem as you. i tried for a week and gave up and still have not hooked it up. i would do all the setting with the serial cable hooked up and when i would disconnect it and try to connect it was lost. a couple pages back big blue posted his way of connecting to wlan, you could try that and see if it helps

niloc,

The WLAN was a big reason why I purchassed this controller. My computer is upstairs with my aquarium being downstairs, so WLAN is a must. What type of wireless router are you using?

niloc16,

At what point during the installation are you supposed to disconnect the serial cable? Do you need to turn the Profilux controller off and then back on once the serial cable is disconnected? It's not very clear in the instructions.
