DOS Programming

[ddrueckh]

I have started the BRS/Balling hybrid method. I want to program my DOS to dose twice as much Balling Part 3 as it doses Alk. My Alk is set up for controlled dosing so the amount of Alk will change over time. Is there a way for me to do this? Thanks!

@SuncrestReef

When I ran DOS pumps, you could program each pump to dose how many mls that you wanted.

Has that changed?

Thanks!

Edit:
Must be a Trident monitor / controller reefer???

Just configure the DOS head that pumps the Part 3 to have twice the volume of your DOS alk head, and set its Control Interval with the exact same settings used on the Alk Control Interval. For example:

Alk volume: 50 mL
Control Interval:

Part 3 volume: 100 mL
Control Interval:

This will cause the Part 3 to dose double the base amount, and when the Trident Alk readings change, it will bump up or down the Part 3 in the same proportion as the Alk dosing.

Thank you SuncrestReef...that is exactly what I was looking for.
