Auto E.I Dosing

[Ryan Thang To]

How did you stagger the days and program in a rest day?

unfortunately you can't set a rest day. I leave mine to dose 7 days a week. Each week would change.

Cheers

Ryan,

Does yours dose around midnight?

 

[tubamanandy]

If you want to dose alternate days, set channel 1 to 1 days and channel 2 to 2 days then surely you would get alternate dosing starting from tomorrow ?

 

[Matt Horne]

If you set a channel to 1 day then it doses everyday

 

[Ryan Thang To]

Nope. Mine come on when the time is set. Why?

If you like i can do a video. I would have to take the tubing off to show you

That would be great, thank you

Have them both do same day every 2 days at 00:01hrs and 23:59hrs.

Seems to be as close as I can get mine. It's essentially alternating every 24hrs. As above it goes out of sync, so if Monday was Macro week 1, week 2 it's Micro. You also end up dosing water change day.

im uploading the video on youtube now. don't laugh at my voice ok i don't sound like that. I was a bit to close to the camera i think. this is my very first video I ever done where I have to speak. I got nervous

cheers

nope. when you set it at 0 it dose everyday.

 

[jagillham]

My understanding was the number was every X days. Will have to check mine tomorrow.

If I understand your video essentially what you've done is today set channel 1 for every other day. Then tomorrow set channel 2 for every other day. (But you've played with the clock to save waiting and to test?)

The Jabao is a doddle to programme and a delight to use - I inadvertently went into manual when I first used it (handy as it primed the pumps nicely) until I found out how to go into the programming mode

 

[Matt Horne]

OK this pump is driving me insane now. I have programmed it exactly the same way that Legytt has above in the video.

When I test them by setting the date forward it works perfectly, with one pump coming on. Then the second pump coming on the next day etc.

However when I leave it to come on the day after I set it, I watch the time come round and nothing happens! I don't understand why?

Help needed please

Could I ask what calculator you guys to make your liquid solutions? I only have measuring spoons, do I need a set of scales to measure it properly or can I get away with using spoons..?
