Salinity Control Again

[coops1234]

Hey

I can't get any pic of it as I'm away for work
But the socket I'm try to control is my main pump and the function for that socket is always on.
I all ready tryed inverting it in programmble logic but no good

You won't be able to do this with an always on socket.
You have to name the pump in the current pump set up or use the filter description (this will turn off on feed pause so decide if you want that or not).
Then you can use the programmable logic. Assign the socket you now have the pump plugged into to the programmable logic you created for this.
Oh and use the And function.
The gist of this is it will run all the time and then turn off when you do a water change.

Personally I have the pump as filter and then enable a feed pause when I do a water change which does not need a programmable logic switch.

Hey Paul I have it setup like this I'm not sure wat to do now lol

Coops,
Well like I said, you can't have permanently on.
Permanently on means exactly that, on all the time no questions!!!!

I have it under socket 1 (programmble logic 9)?

I have it under socket 1 (programmble logic 9)?

Ah Sorry I thought it was S14.

Ok I see that socket 1 is not on!
I have just tried this and it worked correctly for me!

Did you tick the invert box on the water change selection in the programmable logic?

If you want to talk to me online through skype, send me a PM and the process may be a bit quicker, particularly if your web cam can be detached and pointed at the screen.

But hopefully you have it sorted now. Note that if you are using feed pause to shut the main pump down during feeding, filter 2 only works with feed pause 2.

I shut down to avoid the floating food going into the overflow.

Hello, I have a question about salinity control.
I have tried the programable logic, but there is a little bug.
Let me try to explain (sorry for my englisch, i'm dutch)
I have made a 2 prog logic's, 1 with Conduct.(S) 1 decrease AND Fill water(ATO only) 1 , 1 with Condust.(S) 1 increase AND Fill water(ATO only) 1.
I have 1 socket assign to prog logic 6, that is for a R/O and i have 1 socket assign to prog logic 7 that is for a salt water tank.
I only use 1 float switch for this.
And i don't use AWC function.

Everything is working fine, when salinity is low and water level is low, it fills up with water out of my salt water tank,
when salinity is high and water level is low, it fills up with r/o water. But now, what i found out, is that when my salinity level is correct but my water level is low, no r/o water or salt water is fill up.
So what now happens is that my water level is getting so low that my low water sump level floaty is triggerd, my return pump stops.

I hope someone got the anwser.

Thank's

Does it mean at very low level won't trigger the salinity sensor maxi level? Have you try to narrow the hysteresis setting?

Hi Leunam,
What firmware revision are you using.
I will try to replicate this and see if I have that issue.
Also post a screen shot of the conductivity page for me so I can match this also!
