Tunze Stream control?

OK, I am getting a strange reading on my status page:

Oct 23 2007 21:11:44
Temp pH ORP
79.9 8.23 331
SKM Auto ON
PUM Auto ON
TU1 Auto PF1
TU2 Auto PF3
FED Auto OFF
TUR Auto OFF
KOR Auto ON
FO1 Auto ON
FO2 Auto ON
FOO ON
Power Failed: None
Power Restored: None

I am not getting a "on" or "off" status for TU1 or TU2. Is this right?

Also, based on Kenargo's post, I changed the program from 030/100 to 000/100 and the waves were amazing. However, the on and off of the 6055 pumps caused a knocking noise that was too distracting to deal with, so I changed it back to 30%.

Here is my program:

SKM#-A10
PUM#-A02
TU1#-E01
TU2#-E02
FED&-A01
TUR$-A09
KOR#-A16
FO1$-C01
FO2$-C02
FOO$-C03

If Time > 00:00 Then TU1 ON

Thanks. The status is messing with a web page I have set up. Click on my home page and you will understand. The only fields possible are either on or off.
 
It looks like the php application reading the status needs to be modified to access the new status display.
 
Guys,
Quick question on placement on a pair of streams: Do they need to be opposing to have optimal efficiency?

If I placed them on a center overflow box pointed away from each other towards the side panels, would this totally defeat the purpose of the Aqua Surf?

Thanks.
 
poor display of tank with returns and stream 6101 ..two per side

top view


( > .........returns facing each other.......< )
( ...............................................................)
( # ..........streams facing each ...........# )
( ............................................................... )
( ...............................................................)
( # ........streams facing each other......# )
(..>..........returns facing each other......<..)

above is a poor draft of my tank.. any ideas on how to set up the tunze 6101.. the > represents the returns for each side of the tank. inother words two per side.. they hit each other and create a large rip tide in a downward fashion...

# represents the streams 6101 .. two per side.. right now they osc between each side.

any ideas.. growing surge, waves... ect.. calm at night..

right now they are just adding more random patterns of flow in the tank... they might be creating waves.. but those are converged on by the returns hitting each other..

ideas please... the tank is about 3 feet deep and 8 to 9 feet long..

thanks

So placing the streams on the center overflow box didn't quite work well.

Would placing both streams on one side of a 180g pointing straight across be a workable option?

Right now they are back to the top corners of the back pane and they are displacing all the sand in the front.

I want to keep one end clear hence the trial of the overflow box & back pane vs one on each end pointed at each other.

Any input would be gratly appreciated, thanks.

I have both of my 6100's on one side...works fine
Click to expand...

Thanks benf.

Do you place the pair at different heights?
 
Are there any plans to add a RND to the PMP statements, similar to how the OSC is implemented ?

Pmp OSC XX/YY/ZZ for PF1

would also be able to be stated as

Pmp RND XX/YY/ZZ for PF1

Just seeing if that is on the horizon (in the next FW update perhaps) ? :)

Thanks
 
The aquasurf is a great product! I was worried about the added code needed to run the pumps because I was already at 99 lines of code on a AQIII (100 max allowed). By changing the season table and using the "If Sun" and "If Moon" commands I was able to squeeze it in.
 
really ? wow. I am worried about the same limitation on our AC Jr (although if I recall it's limitation is 40 statements). 40 statement limitation and we already have 22 now. Factor in wanting to control 4 pumps, with some sort of randomness and day/night modes and that puts us approx 5 statements over our limit (with the code I came up with so far).

Curt,

Do the PMP definition statements count against our total statement count ? Or are they somehow transmitted to the AS and maintained there in additional flash memory ? I would guess no since the AC Jr, III and III Pro have different maximum profile capacities. But it would be nice if the profiles are kept on the AS and didn't take away from the available resources on the controllers (and just calls to the various Profiles were all the Controller had to send down for the AS to suss out and implement).

Also, for the "optional" power supply, what is required ? IE: load side volts, current and power connector (IE: 8 mm connector, center positive).

Thanks :)
