I got my heaters hooked up along with my LED strip and fuge lights.

Also hooked up my return pump and skimmer. I have it programmed for my skimmer to shut off when my return pump is shut off for WC's. This is where the sump fills a little higher and I dont want the skimmer to overflow. So then when I turn the return pump back on the skimmer turns back on after 3 minutes. I love this thing!

I'm really going to have to get one of these things. You guys having any issues with something I might be able to help with? I'm slowly building a tutorial on setup, firewall stuff, etc.

Dude, you will be scary with one of these. You'll have it doing things no one knew existed.

After you help Jay with his, you'll be a network config master!

That's awesome Chris. Let the controller do the work for you.

I set up another alert so if my pH drops below 7.8 or above 8.2 I'll get a text.

I also added a bunch of "If" statements so if the temp starts getting too high it will start shutting off lights and pumps.

Thanks again to Josh for the IT help. I'd be ready to throw this thing out the window trying to hook it up to the Internet. Lol. My only issue is that I can't access my controller while at work from my work PC. Probably something wrong on my end. Other than that, love the Apex.

I eventually want to add a web cam as well but have absolutely no idea of where to begin with that.

Got everything hooked up and programmed now. dosing pumps, 2 heaters, skimmer, return pump, LED strip, and fuge light.
