Need help Archon Dosing program with BRS Dosing pump

[LigerQ4]

Hey guys! I'm new here. But just had a question. I'm trying to program my Archon to use my BRS 1.1ml/min dosing pump. But everytime I enter 1.1ml in th "Rate of flow" Section, and then press save, when i come back, it spits back this huge number! (1066192077) I don't think it likes decimals. But how do I program this then? Thanks for the help. I love this controller but man it's confusing sometimes! Thank you in advance for the help! Glad to break my posting cherry :)

Welcome to r2r! Have you tried putting a whole number in there and seeing if it likes that. If so then just adjust your total dosage to account for the .1 you're missing. So if you're dosing 1ml a minute but it's actually dosing 1.1ml a minute see if itll let you make the total dosage amount 4.5ml which will actually be 5ml total :)

Thanks crabs! I just tried it.. The whole number saves perfectly.. But then when I try to enter a decimal on the total dose section, then the random huge number gets spit out again! I'm stumped..

The dosing function will only work with Digital Aquatics DP1 modules. You will need to use the multi-timer function with a BRS dosing pump.
