from
All electronic components of the aquarium computer must only be operated in sound condition. If the feeder
is damaged please have this replaced by a technician or send us the equipment for repair. Continued operation
may cause a fatal electric shock. Ensure that the controller (1) and power unit (12) do not come into contact
with water.
It is good practice to disconnect all electrical equipment from the mains before placing your hands in the
aquarium.
Hint: It is recommended to use a separate or dedicated, safety-switch protected supply which disconnects the
mains from the aquarium equipment in the event of an electrical fault.
1.2 Installation
Controller
The controller (1) has a mounting recess or slot (2) on the back, which mates with the
mounting rail (3), and may therefore be mounted using the screw set, (4) to a wall or the
11
aquarium cabinet. The 2 metre cable from the Power Unit, provides suffi cient length to
allow positioning of the controller outside the aquarium furniture, so that all values and
1
switch states can be readily viewed.

2
Power unit
The Power unit (12) should
be fi xed onto the side of
the aquarium cabinet, to
minimise any chance of
water contact in the event
of a leakage from the
aquarium or fi lter etc.
12
Temperature Sensor
Position the temperature sensor (11) at a place in the aquarium where
there is a good water current. It should not be attached near heating.
Be sure to mount it securely so that it cannot come loose nor emerge from
the water - this could lead to inaccurate displayed values
and overheating of the aquarium.
