Hey y'all,

I just purchased the Kamoer X1 Pro T continuous dosing pump and was hoping to be able to control it with my Hydros XP8 (I heard the Kamoer App is a pain). Seems like my only options are dosing 1-48x a day, but I want to continuously drip about 1ml/min. Does anyone know if there is anyway to set my dosing schedule to continuous in the Hydros App? Thanks for looking!

Cheers,

Colin

The only thing the Hydros can do with that dosing pump is power it off or on if you connect it to a power outlet.

You can only control the power of the X1 Pro T using the Hydros if it's plugged into the XP8. You still have to program it in the Kamoer app.

For example my Pro T is set to dose kalkwasser at 8ml/min. If my pH exceeds 8.4, my Hydros will shut it off. It will turn it back on at 8.3.

You just go to "continuity" option in the app, change the flow rate and hit start.
I just wish the app had the volume alarm for the container linked to the continuous option.

I just set mine up last week. Using it to dose kalk at 1mil/min
