This may have been asked already, but could we get light programming that can go in 0.1% increments? I believe the current build can go from 1% to 0% but that is somewhat high for the black boxes many of us use if we are looking for moonlighting

It looks like the reef-pi back end can support float values in that range, and the limitation is purely on the UI. I'm wrapping up a bug fix for temperature validation in the next few days, so I'll take a look at what this would take.This may have been asked already, but could we get light programming that can go in 0.1% increments?

That's not a UI/Reefpi limitation, but rather a driver limitation of the drivers used by black boxes. Their 1% (at least for 0-1% range) is not actual 1%, it's more like 5-10%
Below certain voltage/frequency you will have flicker because drivers can't deliver what's being asked of them by the leds so for the initial step (turn on) it provides power equivalent to 5-10% normal power to turn the leds on and have them not flicker (after that 1% steps are fairly linear) . If you want moonlights you'll need to come up with external solution (there is talk of it in @Michael Lane 's viparspectra control board thread).
This is being developed. The new feature is called journal. Users will be able to define parameters (name, description, unit etc) and then add entries (timestamp and values) against specific parameter. Currently API is completed, we are working for getting the UI ready. Not sure if it will be done by 4.0 release or not.. but its comingIt might be nice if reef-pi included the ability to "Manually" monitor some parameters that aren't measured automatically like temp and pH etc.
Like the things we do manual tests for - Alk / Ca / Phos etc. So just a feature where you can create a graph that you can display in your dashboard if you like and you manually add the datapoints
Alert/Reminder as macro step is already shipped. Does this solves your use case ?Alerts
I have been thinking that it would be nice to have a more customizable Alert function. At the moment, you can set up alerts under the corresponding pH / Temp / ATO etc page, but I was think it might be nice to have all your alerts under a separate tab. Sort of like MS Outlook handles "Message Rules". So you can create all your alerts in one place with a system of drop-downs.
Might also be nice to have an option of an alert in a Macro - particularly when Inputs triggering a Macro functionality is fixed
synchronize with?? specific lat/long to simulate a biotope? I have pondered about this.. but still need to gather specifics.Great thread, I'm following along there too. I'm adding LED strips to my black box, so I think 0.1% values would still be valuable with the external moonlights even if the vipars can't handle it.
Speaking of moonlights, someone should whip up a lunar schedule for reef pi to synchronize with. Would be very neat!
Nice. Thank youThis is being developed. The new feature is called journal.

It addresses the alert add a macro step. I think I may have posted this not too long before it was implemented.Alert/Reminder as macro step is already shipped. Does this solves your use case ?
Its just the IP address or "hostname".local you have been accessing reef-pi through. UI and functionality has been changing pretty significantly over the past two years, we are on 4.0 now.this might be the dumbest post on this thread but can someone point me to the Reef pi UI? has it changed in the last cpl of years?
the think is I have not been using it. I have a reef pi that I bought I guess a cpl years ago now from a company trying to bring them to market. not sure what happened they just vanished one day. so i never got it up and running. was thinking maybe installing it on the nano? IDKIts just the IP address or "hostname".local you have been accessing reef-pi through. UI and functionality has been changing pretty significantly over the past two years, we are on 4.0 now.
What is the brand name on it? We can help you get it setup as it is fairly easy with the prebuilt units. A build thread for it or posting in the main reef-pi thread is best for helpthe think is I have not been using it.

Found the answer here : https://www.reef2reef.com/threads/r...ler-based-on-raspberry-pi.289256/post-7018764Is there a way to reset the graph data? For example my PH-Historical has some spikes from when I was setting it up and it expands the Y axis too high. Similarly my temp probe was intermittent and now I have some 185 or -1 readings that affect the graph. I am aware that the actual temp graph y axis limits can be set now as of 4.0 but not the historical ones (or I cant figure it out)?
