INSTALLATION
The P1 Dosing Pump is the latest state of the art controllable dosing system
from D-D The Aquarium Solution. The pump can be easily controlled using
an app to form a direct wireless connection using the Bluetooth functionality
of your mobile device.
1. Attach the dosing pump head to the main unit by lining up the centre of
the dosing head onto the shaft on the front of P1 unit and push the head in
until it snaps into place. You can install the head with the tubing up, down,
left or right to suit your particular setup.
2. Choose a position for your P1 with easy access; it should be close to an
electrical power source, close to sump or location where the dosing tubing
will be installed and also have easy access to dosing containers that will
hold the solutions. The unit should also be installed higher than the sump
but not directly above water - this is to prevent siphoning.
3. Connect the tubing by attaching the included PVC clear tubing to the
unions already attached to the doser head and then we are ready to
configure the P1. The intake is the right most tube and the output to the left
when installed facing downwards.

OPERATION
The P1 Pump is a custom version of the Kamoer X1 Pump made
specifically for D-D The Aquarium Solution and uses the standard
‘X1 Pump’ App.
1. Download and install the ‘X1 Pump’ App from the Google Play or
Apple App Store and make sure that Bluetooth is enabled on your
mobile device.
2. Start the app and click on the upper left-hand corner ‘Plus Symbol’
to add a new device. Tap on the Bluetooth symbol to let the app scan
the surrounding area and find your P1 pump. All done! Your P1 device is
now connected.
3. Name your pump by tapping on the three dots to the right of
the pump and select ‘Set Nickname’. Type in your new name and
tap ‘Confirm’.
If you have multiple P1 Pumps, you can daisy-chain them together and
easily assign them to dierent groups to make things a little more
organised. To create or assign an P1 pump to a group, just tap on the
three dots to the right of the P1 pump and tap on ‘Group Select’. Type
in or select your already created group name. This feature is great if
you have multiple systems with multiple P1 Pumps.

CALIBRATION
1. After connecting to the P1 Pump, the next step in the process is to
calibrate it. Tap on the pump name to load the configuration page.
Now tap on ‘Settings’ located on the upper right-hand corner. Now
select ‘Flow Calibration’.
2. Prime the line to purge out any excess air. If air is still in the line the
calibration will be inaccurate. Once you see all air has been purged
from the line and water starts to pour out, tap on ‘Stop’.
3. Enter the volume of liquid in the measuring cylinder and tap on
‘Complete’. For increased accuracy, we recommend that you calibrate
the P1 pump every 4-6 weeks.
DOSING METHODS
The P1 has two methods of operation, ‘Manual’ for single one-time
dosing and ‘Planned’ for a custom 12 stage, 24 hour dosing schedule.
MANUAL ADD
To dose manually, select ‘Manual Add’ from the
‘Main’ screen. Tap the centre of the circle to
enter your volume amount in millilitres. Tap on
‘Confirm’ and then tap on ‘Start adding’. The
screen will show you a real-time countdown as
the solution is being added.
PLANNED ADD
Planned Add allows you to create a more intricate
schedule of up to 12 dierent time points in a 24
hour period or to automate a single dosing on a
daily basis at the same time each day.
To create a new plan, just tap on the pump name
you wish to configure and from the top menu,
select ‘Plan Add’.

At the top of the screen you will see the container section. This is a
really handy section that allows you to approximate how much solution
there is left in the container based on your current dosing schedule.
In order for this to work correctly, you must enter the volume of your
container to the best of your ability.
The next section is the cycle. Here you are able to determine if you
want to dose on a daily basis or as infrequent as once every 31 days.
You can also set the pump to dose on a weekly basis which allows you
to then select which days of the week you want to dose.
To select the days of the week you want to dose, just tap on the day
until a blue check mark is added to the right side.
The final and bottom section is your actual schedule. Here you can
tell the doser to administer a daily total volume and spread it evenly
12 times in a day.
To create a repeating schedule, tap on the ‘Plus Symbol’ at the bottom
right of the app.
For an automated single dose regiment that repeats itself daily, select
‘Add Plan’. To create a more intricate schedule that divides a total
volume into multiple equal amounts, then select ‘Quick Plan’.
The Anti-chemical interference setting allows you have another plan or
pump dosing at the same time, one pump will delay administering the
chemical by 5 minutes to ensure that the two chemicals do not mix.
Once you have configured all settings, tap on ‘Save’ at the upper
right hand corner. The main screen will now show your entire dosing
schedule and is now set to begin automatically dosing.
