Which model should I buy?

[MAXreefer]

Maybe you can help me deciding which Controller to get and I have also some questions what is possible and what not.
Besides the standard features like controlling 2 heaters, PH and ORP I want to control:

Streams:
1 x Tunze Wavebox
2 x Tunze 6101
2 x Tunze 6055

Dosing pumps:
I want to be able to dose the 2 part (Alk, Ca and Mag)
I guess I need to buy also the Profilux dosing pumps?

Lights:
I have a 72inch AI LED system (6 modules)
Is it possible to control each modul individual?
Can I create the cloudy day, lightning scenarios etc. for the AI LED's?

LAN/WAN
I would like to be able to control/monitor the Controller from the web also

So to make this work which Controller should I get?
What cables, connectors do I need to get extra to connect the Tunzes and AI LED's?
Any other suggestions?

Thanks for any help/suggestions
Michael

Hiya

Good to hear from you.

Because you want to control ORP and use a number of Tunzes this is what i suggest

ProfiLux plus II EX Net-Access pack -

This will give you your LAN connection as well as ORP salinity ph temp, level x 3, Tunze control x 8 and Ai interface

As for the AI this is direct from GHL just now (boy they are quick in repsonse!)

right now ProfiLux can control the blue and white LEDs of the modules separately but the modules can not
be accessed separetly â€"œ better you ask AI if this is possible, if needed we can extend our ProfiLux firmware

clouds, moon, etc. : yes, all simulation programs will work

As for cables -
Ai can supply you then connection cable for your lamps

For the Tunzes you just need the very affordable GHL Tunze cables available at all GHL retailers.

For dosing you are best equipped using the GHL dosers, these are priced well within market of other units but offer so much more in features and interactivity.

I think I have covered everything but please let me know if I have missed something

Thanks for your quick reply and help.
Makes my decision easier for sure

One more quick question:
Having 4 controllable streams and 1 Wavebox how many Tunze cables do I need to control each pump individually (is that possible?)

 

[AQD_ottawa]

Hi

You would need in this case 5 cables as a total of 5 Tunzes.

The tunzes are controlled in groups i.e 2 groups of 2 etc etc.

The manual explains this better but it seems the link is down right now, once up again i will post it for you

Thanks again.

Just ordered the
Profilux plus II EX NET package

GHL profilux dosing pump (3)

Looking forward to get my new toys

Here is the manual link.

I cant get it to load, GHL did say the site was running slow due to heavy traffic so if it does not work for you try again in the morning. Sorry about that

Its working now.

For Tunze control go to section 3.16.9 Current pumps.
