Adding a Skimmer Water Level Sensor is very simple.
TIP:
When DRY: This is the normal state and will trigger no action.
When WET: This is the active state. When the sensor becomes wet, it will trigger an action.
Step 1: Physically Connect the Sensor
- Connect the sensor to your Control unit’s Sense Port (GREEN).
- Please safely secure the sensor in your aquarium, making sure that the sensor cannot become dislodged.
Step 2: Create the INPUT Sensor
- From the STATUS screen, tap the three horizontal dots to the right of the INPUTS label.
- Select “Add / Edit Input”
- Tap on the + symbol in the bottom-right corner
- Enter the name you wish to assign to your input and tap “Create.”
Step 3: Configure INPUT Sensor
- Type: Select Sense Port
- Sense Port: Select the port number where you physically connected the input sensor
- Sense Mode: Select Skimmer Water Level
- Notification Level: This option lets you specify the notification level you want to receive. You will receive notifications when:
- The sensor becomes WET
- Control has lost connection to the sensor
- Is Invisible: If you choose to hide the input from the status screen, it will only become visible on pages that have “Show Invisible” selected.
Step 4: Upload Changes
Once you have configured your INPUT, tap on the yellow bar at the bottom of the screen to upload your changes to the cloud and the individual HYDROS devices.
Rename Input & Change Icon
- From the STATUS screen, tap on the Input you wish to modify.
- On the popup, tap on the “Gear” icon on the bottom right.
- From the Input setup page, tap on the “Pencil” icon on the top left.
- Type in the new name you wish
- If you wish to change the default icon, please tap on “Change Icon.”
