Ok as I posted in the other thread I would like to do the following for now with my unit:

- measure and control temperature
- measure ph of tank and also control calcium reactor via ph probe
- control (3) 250w metal halides
- control (2) 2x39w t5 kits
- control 2 tunze powerheads
- control water level in sump

Would the following purchases allow me to do all of that:

- Profilux Advance package
- Ph expansion card
- Second Ph probe

I'm a little confused about what the Advance package includes.

ProfiLux Plus II
· 1 x 6 socket DIGITAL powerbar
· RS232 Connection
· PH port
· PH electrode
· Temperature Sensor
· Temperature port
· Level control port
· 1 x Level sensor Float optical Switch
· RS232 port and pc connection cable
· 1 x Tunze Stream connection cable
· pH calibration fluids
· CD software and manual

Does "1 x Level sensor Float optical Switch" mean it comes with the float sensor and the optical sensor? Is everythig included to actually use the sensors or do i need any more cables or mounting kits etc?

The Advance plus seems to include the nicer sensor mounting bar but lists the sensors individually so I am confused there.

Also, Can I run my 3 mh ballasts off a regular powerbar i already have that is plugged into one socket on the digital powerbar? And also plug both t5 units into another regular powerbar and use a second socket on the digital strip? This would leave me 4 free sockets on there. My thinking is that all my stuff would be well under 15A.

Lets break this down for you, I think i answered this for you today already didnt I:question:

The advance pack

You would need to add

1 x tunze2 cable
1 x YL2-1 splitter
1 x pH expansion card
1 x pH probe

Yes you could run your MH on the 6 way digital as you state, your total load is 6.81 AMPS for the MH, the new digital bars are fitted with 200amp surge protected relays. And you can use your same stated method for your T5's but bearing in mind the MH will all switch on and off at the same time as they are on the same switched circuit same as the T5's

Level sensor -

This kit comes with all you need for level control, the kit includes

1 x FLOAT sensor
1 x Holding braket
1 x Mounting assembly (the acrylic rod assy)

It does not come with the optical sensor

Hope thats helps

Thanks for the fast reply.

I was previously asking about the entry package earlier.

A suggestion I might make is to not mention the word optical in that line for the sensor as it is a little misleading...

I look forward to getting in on one of these asap. Sounds like support is good too!

Hi

what line are you referring to? I am lost sorry.

If we have an item listed somewhere that is not included please let us know.

Please let me know if we can help further

Bets wishes

Listed under the advance:

· 1 x Level sensor Float optical Switch

To me it isn't clear whether that means float switch or optical switch. Or both. I could also be a little slow up top....

Aqua-Digital 04-25-2008 03:03 PM

Hiya

Cant find that anywhere this is what is listed on our website

ProfiLux Plus II with Temperature Probe
Digital 6 socket power bar
GHL pH Probe
RS232 Serial cable 1.8M
Level sensor bracket
Float level sensor
Float sensor holder
Tunze1 control cable
pH7.00 Calibration
pH9.00 calibration

Guess you have seen this on a dealer site? I will inform them to adjust this error, if you can let me know who it is.
