RGB LED Control Q

Samstag, 11. Januar 2020, 13:46

Hey,

I got the RGB LED connected to my Aquaero 5 LT.

I would like to set it up like that:
Amb vs Water temp delta 0-8C Blue LED
Above 8.1 Red LED

I tried to use the "Two point controller" but the logic is different I think.

The "Two point controller" allwas to set a Switch on point and a Switch off point...
I tried to set on @ 0C, off @ 8.0C
and another one, on @ 8.1C, off @99C
They both come on together... 100%

Any simple way to do that ?

Thanks
Elior

Hey,

It is not how the two-point controllers work. It's quite porrly explained in the manual, but it seems that it is a threshold controller with hysteresis in ordrer to prevent switching output when source value sits close to the threshold.

So, in order for the blue LED to do what You want you should configure for example:

"switch on at" = 7,5 °C
"switch off at" = 8,0° C

And for the red LED

"switch on at" = 8,0 °C
"switch off at" = 7,5 °C

But it seems that is not all. I was able to do exactly what You seek to do with my Aquaero 5 LT but I had to type numbers for the first controller when temperature was < 7,5 °C while for the second one i had to do modifications when temperature was > 8 °C. At least it seems that it worked that way, may need some testing. I did not check what it gives after a power cycle.

Edit : once setup as above it sems to work of after restart and power on/power off.

Actually, yes.

Set your temperature range from 8C to 8C and then set color 1 to blue and color 2 to red.
As long as the temperature is below 8C, it will show blue, at 8C+ it will show red.
Sample of my setup below (I have threshold set at 7C).
