    Default Profilux 3 and Dosing pump 2. Help.

    Hello

    I have been trying to get the Doser to work through the PL3 with no luck.
    I just bought a new phone cable and have it plugged into S1-4. Programming done.



    Thanks,

    Have you used a regular phone cable? You need a 6-wire cable, 4-wire (as often used for phones) doesn´t work.

    Also my Temperature reads 347*f. How can I adjust that?
    Check if you have plugged it into the right socket and if it fits correctly - temp is the lower socket, the upper one is Level 1&2

    The 6-wire cable is called RJ12. I did the same mistake with a phone cable ;-)

    Does it require a straight or crossover cable?

    I built another cable and finally got it to work. Thanks for your help.
    I am still having trouble with my temperature reading 346* f.
    What feeder also works with Profilux?
    I have two Jebao DC3000 and two RW8 wavemakers. How can I control these off the Profilux3?
    Should I post this in another section?

    Hello

    I figured out my temp issue, the settings were way off. Keep me in the loop on your pump control. Why use that EVG-AP-2F-HIC? Are you only switching on off or to be able to vary the power? My RW-8 draw less then 1.5A since the PSU is rated at 1.5A . Your relay system seems overkill... Why not do it with the 5V signal?

    Your not using a power bar?

    I need to get some more goodies myself. This thing is going to be fun playing with all the options.
