A centralised microprocessor controller for aquariums, terrariums or other applications. AT-Control can measure and control pH, ORP (Redox potential), temperature, conductivity, water level and using the numerous timed circuits, lighting, dosing etc.
Programming and control can also be undertaken using a PC via a USB connection. The system is modular in arrangement. It can be enlarged from a basic module to a complete control unit for several aquariums. All the modules are interconnected via USB ports. The data can be downloaded to a PC and shown graphically.
Base unit:
The Base unit consists of the controller containing the microprocessor and the display and a Power Box. Also included are an interface for PC connection, a CD with the software and a temperature probe.
The Power Box is configured with 6 mains power outlets, seven USB sockets and direct connections for level and temperature probes. All other probes are connected via the USB ports and a corresponding Interface Box to the Power Box. If more than seven connections are needed, a USB hub can be added. Several Power Boxes can be connected to one Controller via the USB ports. This enables several aquariums with many different probes to be connected to one AT control unit.
Set points can be programmed as fixed points or as arithmetic curves so, for example, temperature can be programmed to follow a day/night curve and regulated with heaters and chillers.
Special accessories:
Users with a broadband telephone connection can connect the AT control via an ethernet interface to the internet. AT control can then be controlled or programmed from any remote computer with internet access. Using the optional SMS interface, various alarm notifications can be sent directly to a mobile phone.
