CONNECTING THE KH MANAGER
The KH Manager can be connected by Wi-Fi to the cloud to allow remote connection or directly to your mobile device using Bluetooth for local control.
Remote Access Cloud Connection
- Ensure that your mobile device is connected to your home 2.4G Wi-Fi network and that all app permissions for the Kamoer Remote app on your mobile device are set to ON. Please note connection to a 5G Wi-Fi network is not possible.
- Open the Kamoer Remote app and login to your account, tap the icon in the top right corner and select KH Manager from the D-D H2Ocean device list.
- The Bluetooth connection page will initially appear, tap on the serial number and icon relating to your device. This will then bring up the list of all available home Wi-Fi networks.
- Select your home Wi-Fi network from the available list, carefully enter your password and tap ‘Next’.
- Connection to the KH Manager will begin, once complete the app will advise of ‘Successful Connection’ and prompt to press ’Start To Use’. A white Wi-Fi symbol will be displayed on the KH Manager’s LCD screen.
Local Bluetooth Connection
- Ensure that all app permissions for the Kamoer Remote app on your mobile device are set to ON.
- The app will scan for available Bluetooth devices, once found they will display on the screen. Tap on the icon and serial number relating to your KH Manager. This will then take you to the settings pages for the unit.
- From the drop down menu at the top, switch to ’Bluetooth Mode’
INSTALLING THE KH MANAGER
- THE KH MANAGER MUST BE INSTALLED ON A FLAT, LEVEL AND STABLE SURFACE.
- Attach the tubing using the twist lock connectors as shown in the diagram above, matching the coloured hose to the correct coloured port. It is important that any hose connections are properly locked, to avoid air being drawn in. Ensure that the supplied filter is fitted to the end of the green pipe which takes sample water from the sump and is positioned so that the end will always remain submerged but will not draw in debris which may clog the hose and cause false test results.
- Go back to your mobile device and open the Kamoer Remote app. Select your KH Manager from the ‘My Devices’ screen.
- Initial calibration: On first use, the app will prompt to calibrate the pH probe, the Tank Water pump and the KH Solution pump. Follow the on-screen calibration instructions carefully. Please note this stage of the setup must be done accurately as failure to do so will cause inaccurate results. If the initial prompt does not automatically appear go to settings, select guide and follow the steps shown in the app.
- Once this initial calibration procedure is complete it is also possible to calibrate the Reagent pump. This is not essential but can achieve a greater accuracy in testing to perform this go to the settings page select ‘Maintain’ and then ‘Calibration’.
- Insert the stirring bead into the glass beaker and put the beaker in place in the KH Manager. It is important that the drain tube is positioned so that the end is touching the bottom of the beaker and that the water supply tube is located over the beaker. Re-attach the front cover plate and insert the probe. The pH probe will be held close to the front of the beaker and should be positioned so the tip sits just above the height of the stirring bead.
- In the Kamoer Remote app open the settings menu, go to ‘Maintain’ and then select ‘Running Pumps’, this allows you to run each pump head to confirm there is no air in the tubing. It is recommended to run the Tank Water pump (‘Saltwater Pump’) and Reagent pump to check that they are correctly dropping into the beaker and all air is purged.
- The magnetic stirrer (‘Stirring Pump’) is factory set at 50% power. If when running, the stirring bead jumps and does not spin smoothly this setting should be reduced.
- Return to the main settings page, choose ‘Test’ from the bottom of the screen and select the icon in the top right, this will allow you to set the number of times that the beaker will be flushed with tank water before each test, it is recommended to set this between 3 and 4 times.
- Initial test: Return to the ‘Manual’ test page and press ‘Start’, this will initiate a one off manual test to confirm that the KH manager is operating correctly. It is highly recommended after any calibration and before setting the device for automatic testing to perform a manual test.
- The KH Manager is now ready to program for automatic monitoring and dosing.
