Power outages mess up APEX graphs

[lilrobb]

just realized that every outage messes up my graphs.

The temp, pH, ORP etc drops to zero during the outage and the graph (displaying max and min) now shows a flat line for the rest of the time.

ORP is normally fluctuating between 430 and 470, with an outage to zero the graph for the rest looks like a constant 450 - know what I mean?

Any fixes?

Do you have an UPS hooked up?

Ahhh...!

I was thinking about a ups for my 120 build, and now I have a good reason for it, in addition to powerheads. Thx

Now if only Woot would run a special on them!

Robb, I have no idea how to resolve the graphing problem. I would email Curt at Neptune to see what he says.

Those of you considering the UPS, you should take a look at the Belkin 12V UPS instead. This will plug directly in to the Apex base unit and power it through outages. Of course to receive email alerts and such, you will need a UPS for your home network equipment too (switch, router, modem, etc). The 12V UPSs can be had for less than $20 on ebay.
