Help me to choose dosing pump

Smprc · Jun 3, 2018

Mac...I do not know, you should try and spend some time on the GHL wesbite and read the manual. I do not know if they have MAC software. btw, one thing you will need to order is the tubing. I purchased some cheap plastic chemistry flasks so that I can measure exactly to the milliliter for the calibration.

can you also tell me where can I find manuals to get information on calibration and settings? on the site I found a small guide but no information on calibration etc.

This is the manual in english. Like anything, it feels confusing at first, but take your time you will figure it out.

All Manuals and downloads are in the same place on the GHL site.

Here is the doser 2.1 stand alone manual.

If you have a Mac you can run GCC the main configuration software thru an emulator program such as VMware Fusion
https://www.vmware.com/products/fusion.html
I run it from a boot camp install of windows. As some times if you need to do a Firmware upgrade you will need to have Windows have full access of a USB port. Which Emulators really don't have access too.

I have already downloaded the manuals from the site but do not give any information about calibration etc.

is this manual correct for the latest firmware?

reefwiser · Jun 5, 2018

The latest firmware is in the current download of GCC

Calibration is done in the application.

This is screenshot from the GHL connect app for the phone.

the new ghl doser 2.1 that I get home will be already updated to the latest firmware or do I have to update it?

reefwiser · Jun 6, 2018

It could be one firmware behind sometimes. Which is normal for any piece of electronic hardware.

Will not stop it from working thou. One could run a dosing pump using older firmware all the time.

Ok, perfect

Guys i have a problem with mi ghl doser 2.1...

I turned the pump on and followed these instructions to connect with my iPhone X via the ghl connect app:
Please follow these steps if you wish to have a direct Wi-Fi connection to your doser.
1. Go to your device’s Wi-Fi settings and search for available Wi-Fi networks. You should see “GHL Doser 2.1” listed.
2. Select “GHL Doser 2.1” and wait for your device to successfully connect to the doser’s Wi-Fi.
3. Once your device has connected to the doser, open the “GHL Control” app.
4. On the top right part of the screen, you will see a gear icon. Tap on it and select,
“Add New Connection”.
5. You will then see two fill-in blanks, “Name” and “Host”. Give this connection any
name you wish. Please enter 10.10.100.254 into the “Host” section and tap “OK”.
6. Select the connection you just made and the device will connect to the doser.

after connecting and setting these doses, I close the application and the pump doses regularly at the indicated intervals. if after a few hours I open the application and I connect to the pump, this Ibiza to dose uncontrollably ... how is it possible?
