Apex ?

Have you been able to access the apex with port forwarding? While your on your wifi and outside of the house?

Theres 3 ways to access the apex. 1st is from the headunit. Second is from your browsers while logged on to your network by accessing the 80 port. 3rd is the easiest wich is the fusion "cloud" dashboard which is still accessed on the 80port either wired or wirelessly.

So
1 headunit
2 classic dashboard using a browser and 80 port.
3 fusion dashboard cloud service

At this moment im actually trying to make mine wireless with a gamenet dongle. But thats not so easy. I was accessing the fusion dashboard wired. But cant install this dongle yet.

Well eventually make it work


EDIT. guess youre much farther than i am. The cool part is when those guys order the orange amazon fire tablet and turn it into a touch screen controller. Thats swagg

Idk what any of that means but i didnt have to do any port forwarding to get access to my phone and yes i can control anywhere in house out of house and out of state but im hardwired into my system non of that gaming gear crap i guess that makes the difference
 
New apex question so i was installing a ceiling fan in spare room and had to run all the wiring so had to shut power off . Well my reef keeper came back online no issues but apex didnt reconnect to and it is hard wired is this a common issue or what

Mine does that sometimes. I just restart my apex and it reconnects. With the new heartbeat feature that's all I ever have to do. If I lose the connection for whatever reason I just restart apex and everything is good

I should add that the issue is not only is it going offline but the channels that were set to auto didnt turn back on when was suposse to. The channels that were set to on how ever did turn back on. So it concerns me that during a power outage even with my back up generater that some important channels like my cal reactor will not work as they should . If that makes more sense .
 
Sounds like you may need a firmware update...

FALLBACK (ON or OFF) code dictates what happens to each outlet (set to Auto) when the brain loses power.

My primary "power outage" issue is the net router reboots slower than the Apex, so the Apex can't reconnect and won't retry. A UPS on the router addresses this...

I'd encourage setting up some fake outages to debug....sucks being on the road and having a nagging feeling "the whole thing could crash and there is nothing I can do about it" :thumpdown:

Wait is fall back suposse to be on or off when on auto
 
Fallback in terms of if something fails in program what state should the outlet return to...
Do you want the item to turn back on in an event of failure? Like your cal reactor.

Check firmware i believe should be over 4.00?

Depends on the outlet.

For example, I have my return pump is FALLBACK = ON and my ATO is FALLBACK = OFF.

Ok yea i thought thats what that fall back was for i have them off dont have much connected to apex yet for this reason cant trust it til i know it . So only crap i dont really need is on it so far Except cal reactor but dont even need the co2 on yet . I will find someone to update it for me and go from there i bet my internet is slower then my apex also so that can be issue
