Coralvue HYDROS Programming Guide

[sandracer76]

Does anyone know of a good instructional guide for programming a HYDROS controller? I'm installed a recirculating CO2 scrubber on my protein skimmer and am trying to turn the skimmer on and off basked on Ph level but am having a hard time understanding the logic. I'm excited about the possibilities. Any help is appreciated.

Just use the generic output type and set the number of inputs you want to control it. I don't use pH but I have three other inputs. You need to setup the input to where it is active when the pH is low. I am assuming you want to turn it off if the pH gets above a certain amount. Here is some screenshots of my skimmer output settings. You can also change the icon on the tile to the skimmer icon if you want. Just click on the pencil in the upper left corner and then click on the icon and there is all the icons available to choose from there so select the skimmer icon and save it.

Thank you for the help. After some experimenting I was able to figure it out last night. I've only had this system for about 3 days and it's addicting.
