reef-pi :: An opensource reef tank controller based on Raspberry Pi.

I always end up buying about three different size assemblies and returning two [emoji854]

Agree on the hard plumbing. For the same purpose, use pressure rated (labeled for ice maker use) tubing on the inlets to the RODI.

All of my filter stack sits in the garage. The manifold of my cheap RODI bought back in like 2004 gave out a few years ago - high pressure water jets while I was out traveling are suboptimal. But it’s just unfinished garage drywall in the end, and a dry hot summer limited damage.

When I am in the middle of a Reno project , or just finished thou i do everything i can to avoid any chance of leaks and have never had a major one. I stress over and over to the customer to check for even a tiny Drop of water.. I place a paper towel under all faucets , traps under the sink and tell them one drop of water call me Immediately. My Liability insurance is high enough and the Average home i work in is valued at over million dollars.
Not to mention those quick connect fittings are STUPID Expensive.. I can buy a torch fittings and everything else to do it right for the cost of 3 shark-crap fittings...

This is why i have 90% Customer retention rate .I only loose customers because they find someone cheaper. Which we know is not always a Better Value.


Anyway sorry for getting WAY WAY OFF TOPIC @Ranjib

Get one T adapter 3/8 to 3/8 male
get one Shut off valve 3/8 to what ever your ro line adapter is .. i think that is 5/8 (take with you to match up )
1 Short 3/8 to 3/8 Water line .
Turn off the water and Remove that water line. Install the new short 3/8 line .
Install the removed line to the end of the 3/8 t adapter
Install the new valve on the other side of the t adapter..
install your supply line to rodi unit adapter to the out side of the newly installed valve.
You can now turn the Rodi on and off without messing with the sink aerator .

You can also get a Glue on saddle valve for the drain under the sink.

Hope this helps. Those spigot adapters in your image above are a flood waiting to happen from my Experience ..

Got it. Let me read through these things, understand what they mean . I am thinking whether to go to home depot or order from amazon. I found these: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B004Q01GEE/ and https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01KE8UO94/
Thank you so much.

Nah, its all good. I love reading about this and getting to know stuff like this from all of you. We (software engineers) are pretty bad at most home stuff (elctrical, plumbing etc). I think these are very very useful skills.

Insurance claim waiting to happen. The water needs to disconnect from a threaded metal mechanical part. The water pressure can be as much as 80 psi . these plastic parts, Compression fittings will Leak. I cant wait until plumbing codes catch up and BAN any and all Compression fittings
But until then i will keep making money on repairing the damage they cause when they leak

Oh how much I wish I had 80psi...I am happy to get over 45.
I agree that hard plumbed fittings are preferred, and I probably worry less on fittings for the RO system since mine is out in my garage.
If the system is left on all the time relying on a solenoid or float valve to turn off the system, and the valve only used for maintenance purposes, is it that different from all of the push-to-connect fittings all over the RO system? You would still have the shut off at the wall for emergency purposes.

I'm pushing 100psi through my rodi, no leaks yet touch wood

This is why i have 4 Bins in the back of my van full of random plumbing stuff.. I almost Never return things under the impression i will use it eventually. For the Record i am NOT a plumber but do lots of Plumbing as part of my Projects. It would just not be cost effective to bring in my Plumber Sub contractor for every tiny plumbing change or issue.

Yesterday night I started working on the driver for @Roberto_b ’s ph board. I am very excited about this , and thankful to @Roberto_b . This is the first reef-pi board that address one gap (analog reading/input ) currently we have in supply chain. The atlas scientific counterpart is pretty expensive and uses proprietary code. Although this board was designed for reef-pi , I think other diy projects will be able to use it without any issue. As an added bonus the driver will also unlock the base board (all in one board for pico tanks) ph capability , thanks to @theatrus on keeping the api compatible . I don’t know how this approach will perform yet, as there are several other things that needs to be done right (calibration for example ) , but I’m positive . At least we’ll get a platform to improve upon .

Looks like you have to remove the '#' before dtparam=i2c_arm=on to enable i2c

2nd issue is WLAN related, can you run ifconfig?

For some reason it's not showing the wlan0 interface. What shows: sudo ifdown wlan0 && sudo ifup wlan0 ?

I think he is using lan. Change Config -> Settings -> interface , from wlan0 to eth0 , and reload. reef-pi should be working just fine, even with that issue

CONFIG.TXT:

# For more options and information see
# http://rpf.io/configtxt
# Some settings may impact device functionality. See link above for details

# uncomment if you get no picture on HDMI for a default "safe" mode
#hdmi_safe=1

# uncomment this if your display has a black border of unused pixels visible
# and your display can output without overscan
#disable_overscan=1

# uncomment the following to adjust overscan. Use positive numbers if console
# goes off screen, and negative if there is too much border
#overscan_left=16
#overscan_right=16
#overscan_top=16
#overscan_bottom=16

# uncomment to force a console size. By default it will be display's size minus
# overscan.
#framebuffer_width=1280
#framebuffer_height=720

# uncomment if hdmi display is not detected and composite is being output
#hdmi_force_hotplug=1

# uncomment to force a specific HDMI mode (this will force VGA)
#hdmi_group=1
#hdmi_mode=1

# uncomment to force a HDMI mode rather than DVI. This can make audio work in
# DMT (computer monitor) modes
#hdmi_drive=2

# uncomment to increase signal to HDMI, if you have interference, blanking, or
# no display
#config_hdmi_boost=4

# uncomment for composite PAL
#sdtv_mode=2

#uncomment to overclock the arm. 700 MHz is the default.
arm_freq=1000

# Uncomment some or all of these to enable the optional hardware interfaces
#dtparam=i2c_arm=on
#dtparam=i2s=on
#dtparam=spi=on

# Uncomment this to enable the lirc-rpi module
#dtoverlay=lirc-rpi

# Additional overlays and parameters are documented /boot/overlays/README

# Enable audio (loads snd_bcm2835)

Thank you for your help...Tj Allen NAVY Vet.

Can you share screenshot of your UI. The problem areas, like how you are not able to choose outlets, etc

I verified my config.txt file and found following differences:

#uncomment to overclock the arm. 700 MHz is the default.
arm_freq=1000

Please disable, this high frequency may cause (power) issues. Are you using an USB wlan stick?

# Uncomment some or all of these to enable the optional hardware interfaces
#dtparam=i2c_arm=on
#dtparam=i2s=on
#dtparam=spi=on

change to:
dtparam=i2c_arm=on
#dtparam=i2s=on
dtparam=spi=off
I also have enable_uart=1 but I don't think you will need this

# Enable audio (loads snd_bcm2835)
dtparam=audio=on
gpu_mem=96
dtoverlay=w1-gpio
core_freq=500
sdram_freq=500
over_voltage=2

Remove:
core_freq=500
sdram_freq=500
over_voltage=2

It very much looks like you're trying to overclock the rpi and if you're using an USB wlan stick then most likely you have a power supply issue.

Thank you for helping and what shall i do?

enter the phrase "sudo ifdown wlan0 && sudo ifup wlan0" (without ") and press enter, same as you did "ifconfig"
