Current IC Loop Bluetooth

[becca10]

I just got my Bluetooth controller today and put the system up. I have the lights and wave pumps on it and it works great. However, I am unable to get my return pump to work on the system. Any thoughts techie people out there? I believe I have the 1050 return pump from Current.

Have you tried emailing current?

 

[becca10]

Not yet. Been busy with tank maintenance. Will do

Hello,

I was selected also to do a beta test on the blue tooth as well and do to my system being kinda complex, I needed help. I use two current eflux 3500 gph return pump, four 2100 gph wave makers, but I don’t run the ic loop lights. I run the current orbit marine pros the ones right before the ic. So I’m short the blue tooth doesn’t work w my lights which I knew. However it does with everything else I have running. I will try and find the email Brandon sent me on how to hook my system up. It works really good in all respect. I don’t have a smart phone but use my Apple MacBook Pro for it, which is why I need help. But the stuff current comes out with is just awesome.

Does it work with everything else, and have you linked your return manifold to the wave maker manifolds. I have to look but it should go into number 4 port and into 1 port on the return pump manifold. I’m not certain but may have to go take a picture of it.

Ave you tried the feed button on your remote? That should tell you if it’s working, it should drop down to 30% power if it is.

A pic would be great. Thank you!

I just received my Bluetooth controller aswell. Long time waiting. Hope you got the 50% off coupon from them. If not let me know I'll send you the coupon code. Hooked up my setup yesterday to my lights and almost missed the part where it says to not use the existing black and blue modules. Does your power inverter for the pump light up? And in the app do you have the pump switch turned to on?

Hello,

Here is how I am currently running my system. I have two of the 72 inch orbit marine pros (these will not work on the new blue tooth system). I am running twin 3500 gph return pumps, four of the 2100 gph wave makers. You have to connect them (Daisy chained in order for it to work correctly). I am still having issues trying to get both return pumps to work with the blue tooth. I can get one to w out any problems, just not both. I may need to run two of them.

Also, as some may or may not know, my tank is only about 6 months old, it’s 240 gallons. Any suggestions on how to make it even better, I’d love to hear.

How do u like the lights so far? I'm still setting up the tank on mine with the ic pros. If you had a choice would you go with another brand of lights or have these done good for you ?

 

[Sarah24!]

I don’t have the ic pro lights. I have the current orbit marine pro 72 inch. They came out right before the ic lights did. But they are truly amazing I will never get rid of them. My tank is only about 6 months old and the growth is amazing. The ic lights are really good also, but current said they wouldn’t do well w tanks larger than 125. The ones I have can go deeper, and grow sps better in larger tanks.

I got lucky than, mines a 120g .

loving mine the blue tooth is great had a slight hiccup just re did it and has been working great since.
i also got a free set of speakers with it as well as half off . the speakers add nice touch to the environmental effect of night ,lightning , storm mode high tide low tide

Hello,

I had no idea they made speakers for this system etc. Do you happen to have pictures of how your blue tooth system is set up and or speakers? Does it actually make natural ocean sounds, waves, thunder, etc?

 

[nemesistundra85]

I got the same speakers, I'm not sure if the extra usb port will power them. I will try to hook them up and take a pic, maybe even a video [emoji6]

If wasnt answered the dc flow pump hubs might need an update.
The original hubs (ones ordered after release notice should) do not connect to the bluetooth hub, ordered mine yesterday after reading through their facebook page.
They had an email or something to contact them about replacement hubs.

Here's a pic and video, noise in the background from family not listening to be quite for 10 sec9nds lol

 

[Darryl]

yup thats them and there is a volume control on the back of the controller speaker (the one with usb power plug, speaker connection to controller and cable to second speaker)

yes

 

[becca10]

I have the 72 inch ic Pros on a 6 foot 135 gal tank. So far I love the set up. I need to get a par meter to tweak the lights. The family loves the storm systems with the speakers. Yes I got them with my order. I didn’t get the email on the replacement hub. I will check the Facebook page and see it that resolves my problem. Everything else is working great!
