Aquatronica becomes AT-Control

[RDS]

Hi,

only a little info: Here in Germany/Austria,... Aqua Medic will release the Aquatronica under a new name (AT-Control) with a new "look" (hardware/software). For example: Now You can change the battery / other battery / Connectors are protected,...
And I think, that it will be cheaper than the Aquatronica (but I don't know).

See following link (http://www.aqua-medic.de/seawater/de/18/AT%2DControl%20system%20set/) (pdf's) - only in German language:

Now I wonder if the "new" AT-Control is compatible with Aquatronica (because I think it's not possible to buy the Aquatronica anymore here in Germany/Austria i :( :confused: )

RDS thank you for the information, the English language manual for the AT-Controller is linked in the Big Controller Comparison Chart. I was told that certain items eg. 110V powerbars/Probes should work with the AT-C but items like Ethernet/Dosing Pump/SMS/Level/Temp will not work. Possibly you could flash the Aquatronica Firmware on the unit and that would allow everything to work, but who is going to be the Guinea pig ;)

RDS if you get an AT-C please let me know, I would love to see a copy of the Software.

Oh no, I was hoping the moduls work with the Aquatronica. It seems that I have to buy new Modul (SMS,...) in UK :(

Sorry but I don't think that I'll get an AT-Control - I already have two Aquatronica systems :D


Moreover, I wonder why Aquatronica builds 2 systems (Aquatronica, AT-Control). What's behind all this?

Companies do it all the time, Just look at this Pet Food scare, it seems like almost every brand of pet food is made by the same company
