Apex DOS DIY level switch?

Has anyone made a DIY harness that attaches to the 6 pin connector on the DOS unit? The optical sensors used by the DDR are a simple 3 wire switch (GND, +12V, Switch Status). I assume if you know the pinout of the 6 pin connector it would be easy to add level monitoring to any container.

Return Pump Ramp Start when Turned On

I want a programmable return pump to have a soft start whenever it is turned on. I created a ramp profile, but I'm struggling to figure out how to have it activate when the pump is turned on initially. I was hoping that I could have a set of statements like...

fallback on
set on
if outlet pump on then set ramp_profile
defer 5
set normal_profile

Cheers,
Jason

APEX Full vs Reefkeeper Elite

Why would you choose one over the other? I have been looking for a couple weeks and can't see much of a difference in them other than a label.

Can you fill me in? This would be my first time using a controller in 15 years.

Scalability of controllers

Hi -

Looking for information regarding how many modules different controllers can actually support at once. Getting a lot of anecdotal feedback from people locally that do not have any firsthand experience and would like to be better informed before making any (potentially large) purchasing decisions.

I currently have 12 individual systems that I would like to monitor the basics (temp, salinity and pH). Likely will need to cover 20-30 systems when everything is said and done.

Thank you.

I have scoured the internet and not found this information anywhere, so I thought I would post this here as well as on the Neptune Forum. Hopefully the following will be helpful to a fellow reefer.

As this is posted, Abyzz America has the APEX cables in stock and they have been outstanding to work with. Here is a link to the cable you need to connect your APEX and Abyzz pump: http://www.abyzzamerica.com/Abyzz-Interface-Cable-for-APEX-Controller-p/a-va-intapex.htm

Is there a way to select all of my Radion lights to edit all at one time? I would really like to play with the look of the lights but don't want to have to edit them all one at a time.

Thanks!

Today, i plugged the PC4 to computer and changed some name on PC4. I'm not sure if i did/messed up something but after that my Multi-Timer for ALK and CA is not working properly.

I'm sure all settings are right as it used to work fine with same setting and all firmwares are up to date. I have 2 PC4, ALK is at channel...

I just want to make sure before I do it. The wire for the PP 8 from the controller to the pump is a standard Din5 connection? I want to use the APex variable port to control them.

Okay I'm looking into getting a controller for my 120 gallon reef tank. I want to be able to control my return pump, my two heaters, protein skimmer and my dosing pump. I would also like to be able to get email alerts or text alerts is that possible with the jr.? And would I have to buy an extra power bar? Also not sure if it comes with a pH probe or not if anybody can answer my questions it would be greatly appreciated.

Is the only difference between the Mega and the Ultimate controllers, the touchscreen? And if so is it possible to use an ipad or an android device to serve the same purpose?

This will help me decide which one to get.

Apex went off line.

Hello there, my apex keeps losing internet connection. I have the wifi version but I have it connected directly to my router with the Ethernet cable because my router is far from away from my aquarium and signal sucks. So I got this on my home screen. I restarted the modem, reset the apex base unit, made sure all cables are properly connected and nothing. My main issue is if I'm not able to resolve my apex connection will it still control my temp probe and heaters?
