Understanding the Options Screen

The HYDROS App has global options configured based on the region, time, and hobbyist preferences.

To access the OPTIONS page:

1. Go to your device’s STATUS screen.
2. Tap on the upper-left-hand-corner horizontal bars and tap on OPTIONS

Available Options:

• Temperature Format: This allows you to select between Celsius and Fahrenheit scales.
• Volume Unit: This allows you to specify the volume units for your HYDROS.  
• Alkalinity Unit: This allows you to select between dKH, ppm, and meq/L.
• Time Zone: Here, you can select your region’s time zone.
• Mode Control Input: When connecting the HYDROS to a 3rd Party Controller, this specifies which of the four available 0-10V INPUTS connects to the 3rd party controller.
  
  EXAMPLE: If you want to attach the WaveEngine to another controller’s variable speed port, here you specify which port # it is connected to.  It would allow you to set the other controller to feed mode, and the WaveEngine would immediately change to Feeding Mode.
• Party Mode: Additional Light Patterns to fit different holidays.
• LED Mode: This allows you to select two types of lighting schema when the HYDROS is running.
• LED On Time: This allows you to specify the time of the day when the LED MODE will activate.
• LED Off Time: This allows you to specify the time of the day when the LED MODE will deactivate.
• Low Power Exit Delay: This allows you to specify a delay time for the Control unit to wait before changing back to Normal AFTER the power has returned.
• Low Power Mode: This allows you to specify which mode the Control will run when the power is out, and the Control is running off battery power.
• WaveEngine Enable EcoTech^tm Pumps: It allows you to enable EcoTech mode to pair new pumps and see the different EcoTech pump tiles on the Status screen.  
  • WaveEngine EcoTech^TM Pairing Mode: You can set the WaveEngine into pairing mode to add your EcoTech pumps.
• Email Notification Level: Select which alarm level will send an email when triggered.
• Push Notification Level: Select which alarm level will send a push notification when triggered.
• Audible Notification Level: Select which alarm level will trigger the local alarm.
• Disable Cloud Monitoring: If your HYDROS devices are not connected to WiFi and the internet 24/7, you can prevent “Device X Not Connected to Cloud” notifications by enabling this feature.
• Resend Notification After: How long before the controller sends you a repeat notification for the same warning?
