Connection and initial Setup
Download and install the ReefBeat-App from the app Store or Google
Play as appropriate for your Mobile Device. (In countries without
access to Google Play, an APK file and installation instructions can be
downloaded from Red Sea's website.)
After installing ReefBeat, you will be guided through the set-up of your
ReefBeat user account and aquariums, then you can start adding your
Red Sea connected devices. All your user account details can be edited,
but only when your mobile is connected to the internet.
For full functionality Red Sea's connected devices should be connected to
the internet and your aquariums should be set to "Online". If you do not
have an available Wi-Fi network at your Aquarium, set it as "Offline". You
can change this setting later when Wi-Fi becomes available.
Make sure that you select the correct world time zone for where your
aquarium is located. The default is the same time zone as your mobile
which might be set for a different location. There is also a "Daylight
saving Time" (DST) toggle that needs to be manually switched at the
beginning and end of DST for your location.
If you have set up more than one aquarium, select the aquarium from
the dropdown menu at the top of the screen before proceeding.
When first connecting a new device it should be in AP mode and the
setting indicator LED should be blinking. If not, set your RRDC to AP mode
by pressing the settings button until the settings indicator LED starts
blinking (approximately 5 seconds).
Tap the Add Device button from the Device Manager page, select the
icon and follow the instructions in the app. This may take a few seconds.
If no devices appear on the list, check that the RRDC is in AP mode and/
or refresh the page.
ReefBeat-App will now display a list of Wi-Fi networks and signal
strengths that are available to the RRDC from its current location.
Select your preferred network and wait a few moments while the RRDC
connects to it. The indicator LED will now be a solid red. Follow the
instructions on the app for initial settings.
If you have set the aquarium to Offline, select the “Direct Mode” option
at the top of the screen to skip the network connection. The indicator
LED will continue to blink as the RRDC Wi-Fi remains in AP mode.
Follow the instructions in the app for connecting the RRDC to the
ReefBeat App and cloud.
If you already have the pumps connected to the ReefRun Dual Controller
follow the instructions in the App for setting them up. Pumps can be
added or deleted and their settings can be changed at any time.
Setting up ReefRun DC pumps
Follow the instructions in the App to setup your pumps.
The RRDC automatically identifies which model of pump has been setup
on each of the two ports.
Set the desired flow intensity for each pump by toggling between the
2 tabs on the settings page. Before saving, you can check the effect of
the intensity by pressing the preview button. Each pump can also be
switched OFF from the settings page without losing its intensity setting,
which will be reinstated when the pump is turned back ON. Remember
to press the save button at the top of the screen to implement the
desired intensity.
By default, the pump will run continuously 24/7 at the flow intensity
shown in the settings page of the App. If you wish to set a customized
daily schedule or use the pumps as wave pumps see the instructions
below.
If you are running dual return pumps they can be “linked” to work
