The ProfiLux does way more than just lights, you have just come into the forum when the hot topic is lights.
Below you will find the basic list of what the GHL can do for you. But to keep it simple before you read that lot, the ProfiLux is a complete aquatic system controller there is literally nothing it can not do that is available to the reef keeper to control, ph, orp salinity, Tunze pumps, oxygen, humidity, full lighting control as you know, internet capabilities, dosing pump control chiller control, full enviromental control temp control, level control, water level alarm the list is endless it seems, in fact over 1,000 parmeters can be controlled.
The list below actually is out of date, but gives you a the basics.
PLEASE gives us a shout and we will happily talk through with you your aqautic controller needs you can reach us at
sales@aqua-digital.com we are the distributors so if you chose to purchase we would hand you over to one of our dedicated retailers.
Heres the basics below
GHL ProfiLux plus II High tech aquarium compter system that offers functionality at highly reliable level even on the most damanding of aquatic systems!
The GHL aquatic computer systems run on a 24MHz 16Bit RISC-controller with specialized operating systems developed by GHL for all control tasks in the Aquarium for a maximum security and Performance.Simply and intuitive, for many functions no Expanding module are necessary, many functions are already "Onboard".
