Apex FMM/Dos/Dos container

[kevin_e]

Hey guys. I see Neptune system sells optical "probes" as individual entities, similar to what comes on the dosing container and top off system.

I know the Dos and container can track the fluid volume and provide almost real time levels and can also notify you when it is low. I also know that Apex can track your testing data inputs in Fusion and can suggest a dosing regime based on that data.

Can this same feature be created using a FMM and neptune optical "probes" with, say, the BRS space saving jug and Drew's dosers? Does the Apex track the ml dosages or is it the Dos system that does the calculations etc.?

Thanks!

The fluid level tracking is part of the DOS. However, if you google diy apex dos levels you will get some good info. I built a cable and I’m using the sensor to show me the water level in 55g barrel for auto water changes

I'll look into it. Does it use the FMM?

Im also wondering if we can track fluid levels in the ATO resevior using the FMM and corresponding optical. I'm guessing not as the ATK system probably doesn't calculate the amlunt of top off water going into the tank, or does it? I know if can "learn" the typical time it takes to fill the tank.

A low water warning may be sufficidnt as a reminder to fill my ATO.
