hello
have just bought this pump and controller
if i connect this pump to my profilux 10 v output , can i then change the speed of the pump manually via the touchpanel ???
og via the profilux ???
i know i kan make a program for the speeds and so , but can i do a manually override , like i for ex. can do with the sockets ?
looking forward to hear more
Hello,
have you already tested if this pump can be controlled via the ProfiLux at all?
Because it is not known to me, so I can't confirm that it is possible.
A direct manual override doesn't exist for the 1-10V-interfaces.
You can only dim the illumination channels manually up and down (via light scenarios resp. manual illumination).
But for that you would have to change the function of the 1-10V-interface from stream pump to illumination first.
So it's possible but not that simple and direct as for the sockets.
thanks for the reply
yes ,,, the pump and controller are build for the profilux !

please make it possible with manual override in a near firmwareupgrade !! ( in the meantime i will try to use the illumination instead . )
and please make it possible to program the pumps with variables so that its possible to make streams with variables , så that its not necessary to connect the computer if we need a change of for ex. 5 w til the pumps .
hope you know what i mean , i think a lot of people will buy this pump in the future so please make the profilux so that its easy to control these pumps . :)
Hi Frankie Boy,
Not sure when you want to use this override feature, but you can make it part of a feed pause or maintenance activity and control it like that.
You have 4 feed pauses and 4 maintenance activities you can see up so it is possible to make one unique to the pump if needed!
txs Vinny looking forward to GHL ingenuity !Quote:

I still have a slight understanding problem. The ProfiLux has countless options to control speed variable pumps, why can't we use this functionality, if needed with simplified settings.
We can have a speed which varies from day to night. The speed can be reduced during feed pause (or increased during thunderstorm). The output reacts on maintenance mode. Etc.
What is missing here?
Please explain how we can achieve that with the current FW!
Thank you

Very easy.
1. Chose a pump group
2. Assign one pump
3. Do the settings for this pump:
- permanent, no waves, night decrease enabled (select times)
- in the pump settings chose the "normal" speed (max), enable feed pause and select a feed pause behaviour, chose the feed pause speed (min), set a speed for night
4. chose a 1-10V interface and assign "Stream pump x"
for example:
Attachment 8052
Interesting. Didn't know I could do this.
One more question.
Let's say my RD3 pump is connected to S12. How do I link that socket function to the stream group?

Doesn't the pump require permanent power all the time? Why not use a standard wall outlet?
Or if you want to use GHL Powerbar socket: Use function "Stream pump x" (which is usually on and only shuts off at 0% stream pump speed)
Yes it does. But I have some empty sockets on my powerbars. So it's connected to PB.
That sounds great. Will try that and report.

Cant you use a LBF-AP to control it?

I can set the speed, and throttle it down for night time, and increase for thunderstorm. Also decrease for feedings.
It's all in the Stream Group setting. In my case, I use Streamgroup 8, I added my RD3 10v interface on L3 to the group, and set it:
Mode: Permanant
Waves: no waves
Add Pump 3
Edit pump 3 for:
Minimum: 25
Maximum 60 (running power)
Night: 40
Thunderstorm: 100
Behavior for feed: minimum

Hi all, I recently purchased and am now setting up my P4 and doser. In the short time I've been playing with GCC I am able to do many things but others are just not working out. One thing I've noticed is that I am only seeing 4 stream groups when others are seeing 8, why is this? I also can't seem to locate the feed pause when I put the pump control in constant mode, is this FP even possible in this mode?
15 days has gone by without a response! Is it just me or is support just a tad bit slow to respond?
Go to the 1-10V interface page and set your pump to one of the Stream pump options. This will grant you more control over your pump and allow you to initiate a FP with this pump.
We will be implementing additional Stream pump options for the P4. In order for us to do this, we had to reduce the available groups to 4. These additional features will be available in the upcoming updates.
Ok Vinny, thanks for the response, I'm looking forward to the update.
