I’m glad to announce that I’ve added the ability to fetch data from Profilux aquarium controllers. Due to the modular design of the controller, implementing this was quite interesting. The part I’m most excited about is my discovery mechanism; you never have to tell me what probes you are using. My code will scan your controller and configure your account appropriately. You can even do a manual re-scan if you add new devices via an extension port, or choose to deactivate ports which are installed but you are not monitoring. For a live example, check out my data page.
Also, while I was at it, I added the option to convert temperature probe readings between Celsius and Fahrenheit. The AquaController and Profilux controllers both return data in degrees Celsius, but due to the fact that I live in the US, I like my temperatures in Fahrenheit. :]
Now that Profilux support is added and my aquarium is sitting in my apartment (!), I should be back to updating the site regularly, since I’m sure I’l find more things I need in order to share my tank (and hopefully help you share yours) with the world.
