I had what appeared to be an EB8 failure last Saturday night. Multiple outlets were off or out of control and the Green Status light was off. A couple of the outlets appeared to be working. I plugged my devices into normal outlets and they all worked ok, huuum. I bought a new EB8, plugged it in, recopied all my control programs, plugged everything back in and nothing, the outlets would work a little or do what they wanted. Example my Calk doser worked for a bit then decided to drain about half the calcium into my tank, my one return pump will not run.
The weird part is, is that I have two other systems running off this EB8 via Bus cables with not issues.
My next step tonight is to change out the Bus cable from this EB8 to the actual controller and see what happens. After the cable swap I will plug my LED fug light into the different outlets and set up a qwik On/Off cycle program to see how each outlet reacts over time. This sounds good to me for now?
Open for any ideas or help with next steps: Apex was the heart of my Reef tank, hard work when they are down.
Thanks
