Hi All,

I am trying to find out if there is a way to do these functions with my Profilux4 and Doser 2.1...

I currently use 2 of my 4 pump heads to function as an AWC slowly changing out 1L of water each day.
What I would like to have happen in addition to the AWC is be able to use the "Maintenance" button or "Feed" button feature to dose a specific amount of fluid when I choose to.
The reason for this is to acclimate new fish, inverts, and or corals by what I already have instead of setting up a drip line.
Essentially the "New Salt Water" would be added to the system and the "Old Salt Water" would be pulled out slowly to acclimate the new additions.


Here are a few options I would love to try and get working:
Option 1: Press a Maintenance or Feed button to auto dose a specific amount of fluid from one of my doser pump channels. (250mL per press) (Either each pump separately or 1 pump before the other.

Option 2: Press a Maintenance or Feed button to auto dose exactly what I want (1 Gallon into the system over 1 hour and 1 Gallon out of the system over 1 hour). (Fully Automated!)

Currently:
What I am doing now to function as my acclimation system is to "Manual Dose" a certain amount of liquid through the app on 1 pump, then do the same on the next pump.
I am looking to make this more streamlined by a simple press of a Maintenance or Feed button.


Please help if you can,

Jared
 
First, I have no idea, but you might find success searching posts on feeding various liquids, particularly phyto.
