Low reference value
In settings, choose this value with one decimal. "
When the measured dKH is below Low reference value, and ”action mode” is
enabled, Alkatronic will dose carbonate."
Algorithm for dosing carbonates
When Alkatronic calculates the proper dose of carbonates, it uses the aquarium
volume you have set, and the difference between the measured dKH and the value
of ”low reference value”. "
Alkatronic is using the following algorithms to dose the lacking dKH in a smooth and
safe way:"
•
If the difference of dKH and low reference value > 0.14, then the half
dose of lacking alkalinity is dosed. "
•
If the difference of dKH and low reference value < 0.14, then the whole
dose of lacking alkalinity is dosed. "
•
If the difference of dKH and low reference value > 0.9, then Alkatronic will
never dose more than 0.45 dKH at same time. "
With these algorithms, you will reach the target in a safe and smooth way, mostly
within 1-3 doses. Remember that when machine is doing an action, it will do
next measure (and if needed an action again) every 2 hours. When the dKH value
are back within the reference intervals, the measurement frequency is back
according to the settings. "
High reference value
When the measured dKH is above High reference value, and ”action mode” is
enabled, Alkatronic will shut off the socket."
"
When dKH is below your settled High reference value, Alkatronic will keep the
socket open."
As long as the dKH is outside these reference values, Alkatronic will measure
at an interval of 2 hours, independently of the measurement interval you have
selected in settings. When the dKH is back again within the settled reference
values, the machine will continue to measure according to your settings in
”measurement interval”. "
Action mode
When action mode is set to off (white), no actions
like dosing carbonates and/or closing the socket,
will be taken. When action mode is set to on(orange),
the machine will interact according to the
