I have read many threads on Apex over the years and everything it will do amazes me. I was sure I would never take the time to learn how though.My system got big enough that some simple tasks had become real chores to do. For many things the Hydros has task oriented pages that are simple to set up and use. So I got one and let it do them for me.I started with an ATO/AWC system using an Hydros XS, WIFI power bar, 3 Maxijet pumps and 4 water level sensors. This also allowed me to monitor the level and shut my skimmers down if the bucket is full. Those functions filled the XS up using all it's sensor ports.I recently created a collective by adding an Hydros X4 to my XS. This gave me a diverse set of new capabilities that are programmed in the same way and the same place. It looks like all one machine.So I now have a pH probe, ORP probe, temperature tracking and control my RODI fill for my ATO with automictic flushing of the membrane.I am now building a kalk stirrer that will control two outlets of a second power bar that will turn off and on the feed pump and stirrer motor. It will be regulated by the pH probe.I am not an App person. I program my Hydros through a web portal from My PC. I only use the phone app if I want to see the state of something in the fish room.It is capable of controlling return pumps, flow pumps, lights and all sorts of things. Most of those were already controlled by something for me so I haven't bothered moving them to Hydros. I doubt I ever will.</blockquote>
