Ecotech Versa

[infinite0180]

Yes, if the rotor had to turn backwards 20 degrees to park, it will advance 20 degree forward before counting the next dose event.

I figured! Thats genius if you ask me! I hate the half drops at the end of the tube!

You pretty much have it right. Think of a normal dosing pump, lets say you're dosing alkalinity, occasionally your going to get that half drop at the end of the tube that refuses to drop into the tank. Eventually that alkalinity dries and crusts over the outlet. When the Versa parks, it pulls that half drop back in keeping the tip clean longer and keeps that fluid for the next dosing event.

What if you're micro dosing a trace element that requires a precise 6 ml/day and you have that spread out to dose every hour (0.25ml every hour). Lets say say that 12 of those 24 dosing periods half a drop gets stuck at the tip and evaporates, that means it doesn't get added to the tank. You're not really dosing 6ml are you? Today you had 12 half drops evaporate, tomorrow you get lucky and only 6 half drops evaporate, the next day 18....etc. Your dosing isn't consistent, pulling it back in aids in complete accuracy. Keep in mind that these are simply scenarios to further explain the reasoning and purpose for the function.

In terms of added wear, of course the pump has to run longer to park, any wear that might be added is extremely insignificant compared to the benefits of having that feature. There's also a benefit to having the rollers pinch the tube in the same place every time which extends the life of the tube.

Fancy, thanks!

I got the 4 pack and am going to install today but it can find them any more. It paired up at first, hard crashed the app, and now it won't find my tank. Anyone have any ideas.

Have you tried to add a new tank? curious if you attempted to add other ETM products... lights vortechs etc???

I'll try a new tank. No I didn't try any pumps or lights. I didn't think it supported them yet.

 

[Dvanlier05]

Any other ideas @Sisterlimonpot. All it does is say it cant connect and move closer to the tank but phone and tablet are right next to the pump. Thanks for your help. I might just have to wait till Monday to talk to Ecotech.

I had that problem with möbius. My first versa was broken so ETM sent me a replacement. Möbius could not find the new pump. Got on the phone with them and was advised to delete my current tank and start over. Then möbius could find the new pump.

Thanks I'll give it a try

I also found that I couldn’t seem to run möbius on multiple devices. Had to fully close the other ones. I think I understand why mobius hasn’t been expanded yet to other devices, it seems a bit clunky to me. Of course, it could just be me who’s clunky LOL.

 

[Dvanlier05]

Nope still nothing. I guess I'll have to talk with them on Monday. Thanks everyone.

Are you saying that you can't even get to this screen here?

Have you tried removing and restarting the app???

 

[Dvanlier05]

I get that screen, it shows that 4 pumps are linked to the tank when I click on the tank. At that screen it gives me the wheel while trying to connect to the pumps. Unfortunately it does not connect and says to move closer to the tank or select a different one. Both lights on the pump are on too.
I deleted the app and reinstalled. I've tried deleting my tank profile and starting over. It's only open on one device. Not sure what else to try.

 

[Dvanlier05]

This is what I see

 

[Sisterlimonpot]

Did you try to remove the app and reinstall it?

 

[Dvanlier05]

Yep on the app. Deleted my original tank with the 4 pumps. Created a new one, re set the pumps bc they were already paired to a tank. It linked the 4 pumps to my new tank but when it takes me to the main screen to program them i get those pics.

 

[Sisterlimonpot]

No idea... Is your bluetooth on? can you select the gear icon on the bottom right?

 

[Dvanlier05]

Yes its on... Nope on all three across the bottom. I can only select the tank while the wheel is spinning.

Hello Sisterlimonpot, Would you have a clue as to when the Möbius app will become available? Im on the fence with purchasing the reef link to control my stuff.

It's available now

I believe Siggy is asking when it will control other ecotech products other than just the versa.

@siggy, I don't have that information. Believe me, I've asked, only to be met with crickets. I can speculate all day long but that's only conjecture. I would hope soon....
