    issues programming ph probe in calcium reactor

    hello everyone, I am trying to program my apex to turn on and off my co2 regulator and I am having some problems that aren't making sense to me. The probe in the reactor is pH2 and is enabled and is logging and reading fine. When I go to program using either the advanced or just the basic ph setup it will not allow me to program using "pH2" but if I use any of my other ph probes it will go thru.

    Any help will be greatly appreciated

    Hey there. I did the same thing, and got the same error. It's a know issue with the way the name of the probe. Rename your probe to pH_CaR, or something like that.

    This is the solution.
    Please do not send me PMs with technical questions or requesting assistance - use the forums for Apex help. PM me ONLY if the matter is of a private or personal nature. Thanks.
