    No Display, just a Tablet. Audible Alarms?

    Hello everyone, I have the new 2016 Apex System, but I do not have a Display as it doesn't come with one. I am using a Cheap Android tablet I had laying around with it and have it installed under the tank on the stand. Can this be set up to receive audible alarms?

    Thanks!

    No. Only the Neptune display will play warning and alarm tones. You can have the Apex send text or email notices and have the tablet play long notification tones for them but that is the closest you will get with an external display.

    No, it cannot. Audible alarm tones require the display module.
    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.

    if you have an open outlet you could find some type of plug in horn and have the outlet turn on in the same conditions that the alarms would

    You can also do the above if you have an open acc port is well. There are a plethora of alarms and buzzers that are used in industry and HVAC of which 24V is basically the standard.

    You might be an engineer if...You have no life and can prove it mathematically.
