Just installed my Apex over the past few days, got wireless and Internet access running and have fallen in love for the first time in years.
I am interested in what others are using their Apex to control.
So far I have:
Lights and light fan on a timer.
pH probe to control the solenoid feeding CO2 to my calcium reactor.
Heater controlled by the temperature probe (heater is set 2 degrees above the controller's heat setting for redundancy).
I am working on installing a float switch to shut off the skimmer, then I can be more aggressive about tuning my skimmer without worrying about it overflowing.
Is there anybody running the controller for other or non-standard uses, I would like to hear about other ideas to make the most of this equipment.
