Digital Aquatics MyReef 2.0 for MAC

[thakki]

Just found out that MyReef 2.0 is only for PC! 

 

I understand that it can be programmed on the controller itself...but wanted more user friendly interface to work with.

 

Read on some online forums that someone installed it inside a VirtualBox on MAC.

 

Anyone here? If so, can you provide some feedback?

I just got a RKL from a friend for a 14 gal Biocube in setting up. I was having major problems getting the setting to function with just the controller so I went on to the Digital Aquatics web sight to download the software and they said it is only programed to function on PC. Im not computer savvy (hence why I have a MAC). I was going to contact bulk reef to see if they have any suggestions. Ill let you know what I find out. Unless you've found new information?

It should work within a virtual box. Can't you get someone to loan you a PC laptop to get it going and update all the firmware?

I went past all these hurdles...finally I managed to set it up on the controller itself...its tedious...but got the job done.

 

Also, the NET module has an option to access the controller via a web service...again not that useful but does give you an interesting UI.
