ReefRhythm - Advance Stepper Motor Controller with OpenSource

[yury88]

Ohhh, sorry for my carelessness
I had the connection Rx/Rx and Tx/Tx

Changed, now the engine works from the controller

Buyaaa!
I've made this mistake often, it's kinda tricky that you need to connect Rx to Tx, not Rx to Rx

@yury88
I try to go to the local server, doser.local

But for some reason the page does not load, as if the address for the browser is not correct...
What could be the reason?

Hmm, I will double check these feature. Maybe I'm overlook something and its a bug.
Please use IP to connect for now.

Oh, my bad- its a bug!
Thank you for reporting.
Already fixed in v0.9.5

You can upgrade firmware pushing the "starting upgrade" button on OTA page.
Give it some time like 10min to upgrade and than restart the page
And do not forget to to push "cancel rollback" on OTA page after firmware upgrade.

<hostname>.local will start working again after upgrade.

Mqtt broker- IP/Domain name of your broker
Login/password...

If possible, more details...
I understood that I need to install the client "MQTT Explorer" first? I downloaded it.
And then... at the first launch, it offers to enter some data...
And login/password, where to create it?

And in the dozer settings in the "MQTT" tab
MQTT broker - do I need to specify the same IP address here as for managing the dozer?

Thank you, it's already working

I just wish I could change the color of the text (displaying the firmware version) from blue to another, because it blends in with the black background

Try to switch Themes in settings-> other.
Maybe one of Theme will work better for you.

First I should ask- do you have MQTT server?
Its usually hosted on reef-pi or Home Assistant.

Idea about this that users can have "Smart home" system that can integrate with devices using MQTT Broker(server)
In our case, for aquarium needs, its a replacement for all these fancy aquarium controllers like Neptune System. But you still need to invest in some kind of Single board computer to run "Smart home" system

No, it's not interesting
To tell the truth, I liked this topic.
Well, it's not critical

Ah, there is no server.
I thought this controller would collect the dosing data...

Its has basic functionality like "container with remaining"

I want also to keep data on microcontroller, but I have problem with long-term consequences if I will write all these on build-in flash disk.
Because it has limited write cycles. So it will break the controller after some time.

Yes, and is it also possible to set up notifications about the end of the solution (in % or...) via a Telegram bot?

Yes, telegram notification will be added, its has super light weight API that easy to implement.
