    Dual IC-40 on Nixie NodeJS Standalone + Intellichlor power center

    The link has excellent information. I searched but had not seen that before, much appreciated. I will adjust to place these in series and will get a second power center. Any idea how the nixie standalone handles multiple swgs as far as control is concerned. I understand that I will be...

    Dual IC-40 on Nixie NodeJS Standalone + Intellichlor power center

    Thanks for the reply awj22. Would putting them in series cause the 2nd unit to read the elevated salt content from the first unit and not come on? It would certainly be easier to fit than parallel and would alleviate the flow rate issue I would have from splitting them. As for the power...

    Installing easytouch 8 with nodejs-poolController

    To follow up and close this out, I have finished the Nixie Standalone installation and am happier with the results than I can tell you. I rebuilt it over and over again until I learned the ins and outs, and can now go from a blank Raspberrypi to a fully loaded and running system in under an...

    Dual IC-40 on Nixie NodeJS Standalone + Intellichlor power center

    Howdy all! I've posted previously about replacing my compool control with the Nixie Nodejs Stand Alone running on a Raspberrypi, as well as where to place my chlorine generator. I'm happy to say that I've completed the Nixie installation and could not be more pleased... I wish I would have...

    Installing easytouch 8 with nodejs-poolController

    Thank you! Mine is "new", and it seemed to test okay... no errors, and all was working (though not fully connected or programmed) until I left it on for an hour or so. The relays started buzzing... and I soon saw a small bit of smoke from one of the transistors and the low voltage breaker...

    Installing easytouch 8 with nodejs-poolController

    So I know I was “a bit” wordy on this thread which makes it hard to read. Sorry. I do have a question regarding jsnode-Poolcontroller. I have installed everything I can to be ready to install the new easytouch. The question is, will I need to install and get the easytouch configured using...

    Installing easytouch 8 with nodejs-poolController

    Several months ago I posted about installing a swcg and received great advise. Thank you! I have a 38,000 gal pool with attached hot tub in a heavily treed Texas backyard. It still has the original Compool CP3400 controller from 20 years ago. My goal is to convert to an automation system and...
