Profilux II plus aquarium controller

[Matthias Gross]

@AquariumSpecialty:
"the PC must be directly connected to the internet " - I am not sure where you read this.
The tutorial says:
"The initial configuration (meaning the add-on card still has the settings as supplied by us ) of a WLAN card is exclusively possible over a so-called Ad hoc connection. That means that the PC must be connected directly (without routers or something similar) with the PLM WLAN card!"

Summary: PC<->PLM-WLAN connection must be directly and ad hoc.

A very important request to all the guys with a PLM-LAN or PLM-WLAN:
Please read the instructions & tutorial carefully and follow them absolutely exactly. Any uncorrect setting will cause failure.

Redirector & DeviceInstaller
They should be on the CD which was shipped with ProfiLux.
Or download it directly by Lantronix:

I'm looking to by the wireless package and I have few questions after having gone over this thread:

1) As I understand the unit isn't mac compatable unless your using a window's emulator program is this correct?
2) Are there any future plans for the following monitors: nitrates, calcium, alk, and salinity?

Hi,

here the answers:
1) As I understand the unit isn't mac compatable unless your using a window's emulator program is this correct?
- Yes, the software ProfiLuxControl is written for Windows. But i am not sure if the WLAN/LAN-configuration tools (DeviceInstaller/Redirector) work under emulator since they use direct hardware access. This software is developed by Lantronix- so we have no access to the detaills regarding this software
2) Are there any future plans for the following monitors: nitrates, calcium, alk, and salinity?
- Monitoring/measuring salinity is allready possible with our conductivity extension card and the cond.-probe.
The problem for the other ones is the extremely high price for good and suitable probes. I think no one will pay these prices. And we don't want to offer cheap, not reliable probes. I hope we will find a solution for this dilemma in the future.

Regards
Matthias

As a suggetion I would hope that in the future some changes could be made to make it mac compatable. Unfortunately as it stands I won't be purchasing what sounds to be a wonderful controller.

I wish you luck, and I hope in the future I can again look at purchasing your product.
