HYDROS Online Manual HYDROS WaveEngine Understanding the Options Screen

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 EcoTechtm Pumps: It allows you to enable EcoTech mode to pair new pumps and see the different EcoTech pump tiles on the Status screen.  
    • WaveEngine EcoTechTM 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.
