Tunzi

[Tony Romano]

Is the Tunzi control expandable?

 

[AQD_ottawa]

in what way?

 

[Tony Romano]

more than 4 pumps - 2d set of 4....

 

[AQD_ottawa]

As far as i am aware 4 is the controllable max, but i am not sure if you can split it further with the YL2-1 splitter.

matthias should be able to answer this better tomorrow for you.

I know a lot but not everything!

My question would be, why do you need more than 4? Thats a lot of power.

 

[Tony Romano]

2 tanks - low flow spread out.

Also I think I see how all this works now. (In basic understaning that is)

At first I want to be able to add #s of functions like Illumination or pumps, I now see limits of software.

 

[AQD_ottawa]

There are very few limits, it all depends on what you are trying to achieve, if you are looking outside the box to coin a phrase then it is hard to accomodate everyones personal preferences, although i think GHL do more than any other manufacturer to try and achieve this.

I think as you get to know the unit better you will find very few limtations.

If you are running two tanks as per your thread suggests then maybe look at the future and networking two profiLux's via the RS485 expansions. They will run independant from each other sharing a common software program.

 

[Tony Romano]

Yep - I agree - just telling my wife we need a 2d one some day...

 

[Tony Romano]

Can you delete threads - i don't want to junk up site...

ProfiLux can control up to 4 pumps or pumpgroups independently
The pumps in one group would run simultaneously

-> for example you can control 4 groups, each group consists of 2 pumps -> you can control 8 pumps

Keep in mind: we are talking here about dimmable pumps (variable speed) - not only about on and off!

If you additionally want to control other non-dimmable pumps you have even more independent working channels!
But to control pumps only by switching on and off is simple and should be naturally existing in any controller - that's why we usually even don't mention this...

Summary:
- dimming of up to 4 pumps (or groups of pumps) independently
- switching of on/off of simple pumps

 

[Tony Romano]

Ok I did not pick up of 4 independently, that actually gets me where I want to be.

On the on\off I get impression the digital power bars really are not intended for constant on off.

Thanks - day 2 chiller being controlled by ProfiLux!

 

[AQD_ottawa]

Yep you ar right, constant on off switching is not a good move for any power bar, no matter who makes it really.
