March 19, 200719 yr comment_152790 Well my new toy arrives this week, Getting bored with the IKS computer so time to test something new. Basically this computer will do anything as you can upgrade it here are some pics. few of its features Modules/expansion cards are placed in the unit, avoiding a big pile of external equipment. No screws, just unclip the sides and your in. Therapy, program a therapy session on your tank, for sick fish through the use of heaters and cooling from 3 to 21 days. The lighting options are crazy to say the least. T-5 dimming,moon phases, rainy days, storms, clouds and burn-in modes,LED dimming. wirless Networking, software and internet (bluetooth/LAN ready Aug. i believe) Ability to control pumps with Variable flow, like tunze. Probe quality is excellent, titanium and platinum. external display with more viewable area Digital Power Bars, There is much more ,level sensors, heat dependant light reduction, reminders and measurement storage Report
March 20, 200719 yr comment_152853 depends on where you buy them from, 350 pounds overseas http://www.aqua-digital.com/ProductDeta ... uctID=1139 but then you are likely to want additional probes with it too so more $$$ Report
March 20, 200719 yr comment_152926 The full package will set you back over $3000. Thnk I will just import an illegal Thai worker and they can manual turn everything on and off. What sort of backup does the system have? I don't think I would trust one system to run the lot. Report
March 20, 200719 yr Author comment_152929 As long as the power is on it will work I have used a IKS for many years and never had a problem as they have safety features built in. The IKS is becoming outdated so i thought i would try a new type as this unit is one of the best around. Having a aquarium computer gives you piece of mind when you go away for a few days/weeks as it will monitor and text/sms you if something goes wrong. here are some pics. Report
March 20, 200719 yr comment_152965 I'll give you $50 for that old, outdated IKS rubbish. :lol: Report
March 20, 200719 yr comment_152968 Deal, what's your bank account number? Actually, I think I have it already. Hehe. Report
June 4, 200719 yr comment_165918 How is this system going? An update please? Agreed.. I'd love to see the web interface this thing provides and if it can be parsed for something like this.. ^ Updated every 5 minutes.. Report
November 12, 200718 yr Author comment_194504 ok, its 1am and i finally got the wireless part going. I can change my settings from my computer. After 7 months of getting it i final got around to set most of it up. This computer does almost everything. SMS texting will be available next month. Hopefully i will have a web cam up so i can check on my tank when i go on holiday. Will get some update photos tomorrow and see if i can connect my nano 6055 to it as it can be used as a Multi controller to pulse pumps. Report
November 13, 200718 yr Author comment_194704 GHL computer with Photo of dosing pump, still to be hooked up. Sysytem is almost 100% up and running. Want to get if fully runing by end year so that it can maybe help before things go wrong and alert me. Nothing worse when coming home and you have no water in the tank. One great feature is that if the temperature of my tank gets to high it will turn of the halides. great for summer. Whilst the full system can be expensive the new light version looks good Report
November 13, 200718 yr comment_194707 Nice setup reef, can you connect the Profilux View II to the new light unit? Report
