It can be used as a standalone controller for saltwater aquariums, freshwater tanks, pond applications, or it can be added to other HYDROS Controls to build a more extensive system. The Control X4 operates on a HYDROS Safety Net and is rated IP65 to keep your equipment and aquatic life alive and thriving.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWhat you can expect from your HYDROS Smart Device\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eControl your HYDROS device(s) from anywhere in the world using the technologically advanced HYDROS cloud-based app\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAbility to monitor and control your HYDROS device(s) locally through WiFi\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eA fast dual-core 32-bit processor that allows control decisions to be made within each device\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eInternal health monitoring to report voltages, currents, CPU status, and the internal temperature of each device\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eHYDROS Command Bus connections to transfer data and power to devices\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSense Port (4 Available)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe Sense Port is a new concept in aquarium parameter measurement. HYDROS devices include several Sense Ports. A Sense Port is a generic input port that can accept data from numerous different types of sensors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eDrive Port (2 Available)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe Drive Ports provide switched 12V DC power for running small lights, motors, pumps, fans, and other accessories. The exact current being supplied by each port is continuously monitored by the Control, so if a motor or pump quits drawing current or draws too much, you will be immediately notified.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cstrong style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eProbe Port (2 Available)\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-content-type=\"text\" data-appearance=\"default\" data-element=\"main\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eOne of the most remarkable ports on the HYDROS Control X4 is the Probe Port. You can connect an ORP or a pH probe to the Probe Port but, this is no ordinary pH input! The circuitry is based on an ultra-high-quality input chip specifically designed for these types of probes. Each pH input provides digital galvanic isolation from the rest of the system. Galvanic isolation prevents interference with other accessories connected to the system like motors and pumps. Digital Galvanic isolation preserves the accuracy of the measurement by converting the signal to a digital domain before crossing the isolation threshold.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e0-10V Port\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe HYDROS Control X4 has 0-10V I\/O (input and output) ports that allow it to control and receive commands from other HYDROS devices and accessories from other brands. A legacy automation system can provide input via the 0-10V Ports. They can control variable speed pumps and can also be used to monitor simple switch closures, like push buttons or float switches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eCommand Bus (2 Available)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe HYDROS Command Bus is used to power the Control as well as communicate with other HYDROS devices for the ultimate failsafe.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Seastainable","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47171398435089,"sku":"HDRS-CX4PK","price":337.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0798\/2848\/4369\/files\/control_x4_starter_pack_white.webp?v=1701717933","url":"https:\/\/seastainablesupply.com\/products\/hydros-control-x4-starter-pack","provider":"Seastainable Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
