Digital Input - PL-ADIN card Usage Example

[Lasse]

Would this affect my power bars also? All three are mirroring each other.

That you can fix now. Go to system - expand PAB option (the plus sign). You will se 3 powerbars (if you have 3 connected). Mark the first - powerbar Icon to configure. Sett first powebars first number (most caes 1) Note that you in this windows also can set the initial behavior. Eg if the socket is on or of when it power up without the P4 connected. (Default - all off) good to have if you lose the contact with the p4. After 1 minute the powebar will attend the preset behavoir, Do not connect a heater to a outlet that will have on as intial behavior! But the return pump is good to have there. When you have configure the first powerbar - mark the second and start with a number that you do not us yet (the first 1-5, second 6-10 and third 11-15 is a good suggestion

Any examples of equipment to connect to the analog inputs (0-10v) ?

The ADIN card will be visible in a firmware update coming shortly.

Can anyone confirm if the ADIN card now functions with the P4? I would definitely like to install this card so I can do some unique features with my P4, but I do not want to order it if the update still has not been released for P4 compatibility.

 

[Dumaurier7]

Yes it does the issue was resolved with the latest firmware, presently I've got it connected to a level switch in my skimmer waste storage tank.

Thanks so much, I'll go ahead and order the part then! I did have one last question, I plan to install the float sensor in my skimmer cup as well and I know where to get everything I need but I'm unsure where he got that tube that the float sensor screws on to and allows the cord to run up through it. I'm assuming you just drill a hole in the cop and then install the tube. Does anyone know where to purchase a tube such as that?

Possibly acrylic tubing!?

 

[Kyle Sicard]

Yeah but its threaded for the sensor to screw on to. I'm not sure if acrylic tubing can be threaded, at least not that I am aware of.

Just looking at it, it might be a royal exclusive item since it seems to be color coordinated with the skimmer. I'll check there to start, I was just hoping maybe someone else had a similar solution but for something I didn't have to order from germany.

Would some be so kind and post your code for the Apex? I am getting ready to buy the Barrell tender from Avast Marine. Does it have to be hooked up to a controller or can it work by itself?
I have an avast kalk react from Avast which is awesome but not too familiar with the barrel tender.

Apex.. Avast Marine actually has a install/programming guide available within the Barrel Tender v2 page.

Here is the direct link..

Apex in the GHL section? ..... words cannot describe my feelings.

Either platform, help is needed even when the obvious slaps you in the face!

Poster just clicked on the link on the Avast site that links to this page. They should have clicked on the link above.

Hello has anyone connected there Dastaco calcium reactor upto the Profilux with the alarm cable? I have ordered the Dastaco alarm cable but need to know how to connect it up and if i need to buy any connectors for the profilux to attach it too and how to program would be a great help.
Thankyou

I'm not sure what the alarm interface is on the DaStaco CARX - can you post a link to their specs, of the alarm interface/cable, that explains it?

 

[davyboy1970]

This is the cable that i have got from Dastaco, you connect it up to the Plm Adin card but didn't know which wire connects to which connector? Also can i connect breaker switches for the led lights in the sump area to the same connector?
Thank you

Any examples of equipment to connect to the analog inputs (0-10v) ?

I would also be interested in what can you use the analog for as well, anyone?

Hello Marco,
I have spoken to the makers of the Dastaco and they have told me the following:

We are not familiar with a GHL profilux.
We can only tell you that in case of a DaStaCo alarm, the DaStaCo alarm output will be a closed circuit.
In case of no DaStaCo alarm, the DaStaCo alarm output will be an open circuit.
Thus the same approach as with level detections on a GHL profilux.
The 2 wires from "DaStaCo Alarm Output Cable" must be connected to Pin 8 and Pin 2 on your DB9 female Terminal Board.
It's not important which wire is connected on pin 8 or pin 2.
Kind regards
Aïssa & Jurgen

Does this make any sense Marco?
