Hi all,
I have been very active in the forums the past few days whilst setting up my ProfiLux 4 ultimate set and was looking to get a little more help on what to do next after setting up all the sensor probes and hooking up the power bar and touchscreen.
I currently followed the video online about hooking up the heater to the powerbar and that’s the only thing I have done thus far. I am a little overwhelmed with all the things I will be able to do.. and don’t really know where to start. I’ve heard numerous things about needing different adapters and I just am unsure which directions I follow. I was hoping to get some feedback based off of my equipment on what I need to order to utilize the p4 and how to really start to learn how to use it.
My tank is a 65 gallon with a 30 gallon sump
I have two varios 6 pumps in the sump one running my skimmer and one running my return line and manifold.
I have an Orphek v4 light ( I am unsure if I can use the p4 for this.. almost bought the Mitras)
I have a mp40wqd ecotech * I know there’s an adapter for this.. just unsure if that’s all I need?
I do have a tunze ato that isn’t hooked up because I never set it up correctly and would catch it always running.. could be smart to use that for this application now that I have the p4
I have some random tunze powerhead that is not controllable
I think that’s all the equipment I am running. Plus a heater obviously.. I only am using socket 1 currently and that’s for the heater. Do people plug the p4 into the first socket usually?
I’ve heard stuff about ice cap adapters or something along those lines that allow me hook up my varios I think?
Sorry for wall of text.. had a lot to share
