Welcome to the club. It's a great controller. I am enjoying mine. There are great resources here to help you should you run into any issues.

Thanks! It showed up on the same day as my 3d printer. I can't decide what one to play with first!

That's a tough one. I'd go with the Archon FWIW.

Which Archon system did you get or was it an upgade to a RKE/RKL?

 

[NubbsJRN]

I have a RKL currently. I got the number 2 package

Well I got it hooked up to the net. I have been reading for the past hour. Any advice on how to update it?

It comes with version 1.01 so it appears not to do automatic updates yet I am not finding zips I can download

The system tab should give you a line that says updates are available

That's it. Maybe try to reload the page?

It should not have those version if the page is loading correctly. That background is not correct either. What browser are you using to access the Archon?

 

[n2585722]

The system page should look something like this. It was from an iPad using Safari.

Firefox is a good browser to use with the Archon

Well, my Archion survived my first power outage and rebooted perfectly when the power came back on.

I wish the same could be said for my cable modem. It lost the port forwarding so I was not able to access the Archon from outside my wifi

Did you reserve a static IP in your modem for the Archon? If not it could have a different IP address now.

 

[NubbsJRN]

Yep, I did reserve a ip address. It is on 10.0.0.18. That setting stayed, I just lost my port forwarding.

Looking for a little help with Advanced Wavemaker settings. I have both my Tunze pumps in the Archon ports. Trying to set one as master the other opposite. Max 75% minimum 40%. Trying to pulse them with 5 second alternating times.
Pump 1 is fine. Pump #2 will not accept my programming. Keeps reverting to this setting, screen shot attached, (hopefully). Manual does not reflect this new page with the master pump drop down box. I am putting in pump 1 there.

Sorry, I have not used this function. I have Vortech pumps. Lindsey may have used this function. Other than that you might get help from Eric at DA with the setup.
