The bluetooth plug is it to control the feeder pump to the cr or the co2 solenoid ???
I must have bad luck then, every time I look they are sold out.
Super stoked to get the Alkatronic for my Birthday today. My tank is about 4 weeks away from starting the cycle, as you can see the tank isis on half full of water. I'm waiting for a different overflow box to come in. Wasn't a fan of the first one so had to drain a bit to take box out.
I am not at all sure how to get the Alkotronic all dialed in, running and hooked up to the cloud and all, but I am ready to learn and hoping it keeps my all parameter happy and stable. I am hopeful that some of you might help me out, @BrianReefer and @mitch91175
Don’t be intimidated, it’s super easy . Most important, make sure you mix the solution correctly. Either by volume or weight, it’s 4 parts RODI to 1 part solution, and it must be EXACT. Then download app, install the tubing, and follow the pump calibration procedure, which is a straight forward process which you’ll repeat every 3 weeks and now takes me about 10 min total. PH calibration easy too. Don’t set it to dose (aka action mode) initially - let it run a few days, monitor readings. Once you know it’s stable, set your range and move it to action mode. Just jump in and set it up. Within an hour you’ll be up and running. Ping me with any questions.
I would suggest printing the manual or at least sitting down with it on a computer and going over it a few times. I did that before setting mine up and I think it helped a lot and made the processes smooth with no issues.
just wondering i mixed 250ml to 1000 ml rodi. test keeps going below 5.3 so machine states to retest. everything has been calibrated twice. so what am i doing incorrectly? ph probe has also been calibrated. tia
Why salt do you use? What test kit are you using to compare it to and what measurement is that kit giving you? Did you also run the “test pump accuracy” for the 3 pumps to confirm they’re dispensing the right amounts (50ml, 10ml, etc). You can also run test pump accuracy on the PH probe in 7 or 4 solution. Try all of those and lmk what test kit you’re comparing to.

So after 12 hours or so this thing is massively more frustrating to use than the KH guardian I have on my big tank. The android app and Bluetooth is painful. I have calibrated 10+ times and it just retests because it is all over the place every test. Gonna keep messing with it in hopes it starts working properly.
