Yes. They will. Thanks!!!

I'm unable to access my reef pi from any browser. I can remote into it through putty via ssh and the ip address. When I try checking to see if the service is running I get the following error:

Any ideas?

Did you update the address? Looks like it’s missing port number . You have to reset it. St

@Ranjib 3.1

So I click configure

Then it shows nothing i had in there

So I set everything I want

And then it ignores temp or ph

This is a bug. I just noticed this. I dont know how i missed this, as i was working to fix this page. Sorry folks :-( . I'll release a patch soon.

Is that what's causing this, and my temp sensors not showing up? I just recently updated to the latest!

I've just noticed something strange. I upgraded from 3.0 to 3.1

On/Off buttons for Temp and ATO show on my laptop and phone, but not on the screen I have attached directly to the Pi. As you can see, the screen attached to the Pi is showing it's running 3.1.

Weird.

whats the screen resolution?

Possibly. The error here indicates at that time the sensor returned corrupted data (checksum mismatched error). reef-pi will discard such result. But if the timeline matches (error logged and spike in the graph), it likely means during that time period there were few values which has checksum correct but incorrect reading.

I'll have to check. Will report back

Is this an acceptable method of running my equipment every 2.5 hours ?

I can't speak to if the syntax is handled the way you think; haven't tried. But 180 would be every 3 hours, right? do you want */150 instead?

lol yes, 150. but would it work?

 

[Ranjib]

Most likely not. You want the equipment to just turn on/off after every 2.5 hours?

 

[Phildago]

yes, its for dosing pumps that are run for 1 second. I'd like to just keep it simple and set the number of minutes. Between each dose. would there be another way to do this?

Im realizing we cant not do this easily, if at all. My first attempt is to come up with two different timers, one with
hour: 1,6,11,16,21 minute: 0, second:0, day/month:*
the other
hour: 3,8,13,18,23 minute 30, second:0, day/month:*
but this leaves the last dosing 1:30 hours apart, not 2:30 :-/

Let me think about this more. If i dont find any decent solution, I'll add a new feature. A simpler timer that just lets you define the periods in between action, instead of calendar time.

Just a lil reef-pi humor !

That sounds amazing. My tank is at that point where it is rapidly accelerating in alk and CA consumption and I have to often adjust the number, dose frequency would be awesome and so much easier

@Ranjib it seems a feature could be a simple entry to let you put in a modulo; it would still mean he'd have to get an even number of times per day, but what about a feature like this:

Enable macro/timer when:
[ dropdown for seconds/minutes/hours/days ]
modulo [ text entry for int value ] [dropdown for seconds/minutes/hours/days/months]
equals [ text entry for int value ]

then he could choose [minutes], type [144], choose [day], type [0].

Whenever the number of minutes in the day % 144 = 0, it runs the macro/timer.
He'd get exactly 10 doses per day

I was thinking more in the line of after every N seconds (or minutes or hours). Simple and intuitive.

Any ideas how to troubleshooting ???

I made a live stream of my tank...no audio. This will let me watch while I'm at work :)

Very nice!

FWIW - had to go to YouTube to watch the video due to your YouTube settings. I presume you already know this but, just in case you do not, figured I would let you know.
