Safety
PLEASE READ AND FOLLOW ALL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
THIS DEVICE IS INTENDED FOR HOUSEHOLD AND INDOOR USE ONLY.
DANGER: To avoid possible electric shock, special care should be taken when handling a wet aquarium. For
each of the following situations, do not attempt repairs yourself; return the appliance to an authorized
service facility for service or discard the appliance.
WARNING: To guard against injury, basic safety precautions should be observed, including the following:
Do not operate any appliance if it has a damaged cord or plug, if it is malfunctioning, or if it is dropped or
damaged in any manner.
To avoid the possibility of the appliance, plug or receptacle getting wet, position the aquarium stand and tank
to one side of a wall-mounted receptacle to prevent water from dripping onto the receptacle or plug. You
should create a "drip loop" (see Figure 1) for each cord connecting an aquarium appliance to a receptacle. The
"drip loop" is that part of the cord below the level of the receptacle, or the connector. Use an extension cord, if
necessary, to prevent water traveling along the cord and coming into contact with the receptacle. If the plug or
receptacle does get wet, DO NOT unplug the cord. Disconnect the fuse or circuit breaker that supplies power to
the appliance. Then unplug the device and examine for presence of water in the receptacle.

Installation
The ReefDose unit is splashproof and designed to work inside an aquarium cabinet.
It is not waterproof and therefore it is not advisable to mount it directly above open water.
The ReefDose can be mounted directly of any vertical surface
using the mounting bracket provided, which should be
securely screwed to the surface. Self-adhesive pads are not
recommended.
Alternatively, the ReefDose may also be placed directly on
any at surface such as a shelf, on either its bottom, top, back
or both sides (see gure 2) without any impediment to its
functions and operation. If placed on its bottom surface, make
sure that the dosing tubes are not restricted in any way.
Before on-boarding the ReefDose to your ReefBeat, the individual head priming buttons are active so that you
can test that the heads are working and install the supplement containers and prime them ready for calibration.
Once the ReefDose is on-boarded to the App, the priming buttons are deactivated by default to prevent accidental
supplementing. They can be activated as and when required from the ReefBeat App as described below.

Connecting Heads to supplement containers
The dosing heads rotate in the clockwise direction. Connect a flexible tube from the supplement container to
the inlet (left hose-barb) of each dosing head. Connect a flexible tube to the head outlet (right hose barb)
and secure the end of the outlet tube in a suitable location above the sump.
The inlet and outlet hose barbs include lock nuts that are designed for flexible tubing with the approximate
internal diameter of 3mm (1/8”) and external diameter of 5mm (3/16” – ¼”).
It is highly recommended to use tubing that is highly impermeable to air such as the TPE tubing provided by
Red Sea. Regular silicone air-line will negatively affect the accuracy of the dosing.
To attach and secure the flexible tubing:
1. Remove the dosing head by gently squeezing
the top and bottom fasteners and pull it away
from the unit.
2. Rotate the lock-nut clockwise to the fully raised
position.
3. Push the flexible tube on to the hose barb until it
touches the lock-nut.
4. Rotate the lock-nut counter-clockwise over the
tube. Do not overtighten.
5. When the inlet and outlet tubes are secured in place push the head
back onto the unit. If necessary gently squeeze the top and/or
bottom fasteners to snap it into position.
Note: there is no need to align the head with the drive shaft as it has a mechanism that will automatically
engage when the head begins to rotate.

Introduction to the ReefBeat App
All of Red Sea's connected devices must be operated via the ReefBeat App which must be installed on a
mobile device with an internet connection (including tablets). See the full list of supported mobile devices
on our website.
Through your personal user account on the cloud, ReefBeat enables you to set up and manage any number
of aquariums and add multiple devices to each of them.
For full functionality, each ReefDose must have a permanent connection to the internet through your home
Wi-Fi network. In this mode of operation, you will be able to see the current status of your ReefDose units,
change the settings or receive notications on your mobile whenever you have access to the internet.
The ReefBeat homepage will show you the current status of all of your connected devices, and links you
directly to the Settings Dashboard of each unit.
You can install the ReefBeat on multiple mobile devices by entering the same user account details. All
mobile devices will have the same rights for operating and changing all of the settings. You should keep this
in mind before giving your user details to any 3rd party.
In the event that you do not have a home network or your home network does not have an active internet
connection, you can connect and control your ReefDose units in Ofine or Direct Mode. However, certain
functionality such as remote access, multiple mobile devices or status notications will not be available.
ReefBeat is constantly under development. For the most up to date operation instructions, view or download
the latest user guide from the Red Sea website at www.redseash.com
If this is your rst Red Sea connected device, it is recommended that you complete the physical installation
of your ReefDose units before installing the ReefBeat App.

Connection and initial setup
Installing ReefBeat
Download ReefBeat from the App Store or Google Play, as appropriate for your mobile device (In countries
without access to Google Play, an APK file and installation instructions can be downloaded from Red Sea's
website).
After installing ReefBeat, you will be guided through the set-up of your ReefBeat user account and
aquariums, and then you can start adding your Red Sea connected devices. All of your user account details
can be edited only when your mobile is connected to the internet.
For full functionality Red Sea's connected devices should be connected to the internet and your aquariums
should be set to "Online". In the event that you do not have an available Wi-Fi network at your aquarium,
set it as "Offline". You can change this setting later when Wi-Fi becomes available.
Make sure that you select the correct world time zone for where your aquarium is located. The default is the
same time zone as your mobile which might be set for a different location. There is also a "Daylight Saving
Time" (DST) toggle that needs to be manually switched at the beginning and end of DST for your location.
If you've set up more than one aquarium, select the aquarium from the dropdown menu at the top of the
screen before proceeding.
Adding your first ReefDose to ReefBeat
Set your ReefDose to AP mode by pressing the settings button for 5 seconds (until double blink). The
indicator LED should be blinking.
Tap the Add Device button (+) from the Device Manager page, select the ReefDose 2/4 icon and follow the
instructions on the App.
The AP name of the ReefDose should appear on your Wi-Fi settings screen. This may take a few
seconds. You will need to connect directly to the device and enter the password: “password”
If no devices appear on the list, check that the ReefDose is in AP mode and/or refresh the page.
If you have installed multiple ReefDose units and you have already activated the AP mode on all of
them, you will see a list of all of the ReefDose units. Choose any one of them as the first unit and
continue as instructed by the App.

ENG
Connectivity Modes
For full functionality Red Sea's connected devices must be permanently connected to the Internet and the
aquarium set as "Online".
In the event that you do not have an available Wi-Fi network or your network does not have a permanent
internet connection set your aquarium as "Offline". You can change this setting later if Internet availability
status changes. Note that your mobile must be online for this change to be registered on the ReefBeat cloud.
In both Online and Offline modes, the ReefDose will provide exactly the same performance. The differences
are related to the ease of set up and interaction with other Red Sea connected devices.
Online (Internet) mode - full functionality
With a permanent connection to the internet, your ReefDose will have full functionality and all ReefBeat
cloud related services. This includes real time status of your ReefDose in the ReefBeat homepage and
notifications if communication with the ReefDose has been lost or if it is malfunctioning.
Offline Local Network mode - partial functionality
The ReefDose is connected to a home network without a permanent internet connection, and
aquarium is set as Offline.
In Offline mode, your mobile will need to be connected to the same network as your Red Sea
connected devices in order to communicate with them. When connected to the same network, you
will see the real time status on the homepage and have full functionality, except for Notifications,
which cannot be done offline.
When your mobile is not connected to the same network, no current data about the device will be
shown in the ReefBeat homepage. You can change the settings from Offline to Online from “My
Aquariums” in the homepage main menu.
Offline Direct mode - Limited functionality
If your ReefDose is not connected to a network, you will need to connect to its access point directly
from your mobile every time you wish to access it. When connected to the ReefDose in Direct mode,
you will not have any functionality that relates to other connected devices.
When your mobile is not connected to the ReefDose, no current data about the device will be shown in
the ReefBeat homepage. Notifications are not available for offline units.
When operating in direct mode, you can decide if you want to leave the ReefDose AP active all the
time or turn it on/off with the Settings button for access as needed.
At any point in time, you can connect a Direct mode unit to a Home Network: Device Manager > Device
Line menu > About > Connect.

Note: Each head needs to be set up individually before it can be programmed with an automated
schedule or give a manual dose. See the “Head Settings” section below.
Initial settings
The AP name of each ReefDose is the default name for the device in the App. However, you can set a new
name during the on-boarding or at a later time using the “Rename” function from the Device Manager.
Once ReefDose is successfully on-boarded to ReefBeat you are asked to set a few Device Settings and
notification settings for your ReefDose, all of which may be changed in the future from the 3-dots menu of
the Dashboard.
1. Device Settings
“Supplement Volume Monitor”: enter the number of days for receiving low supplement notification.
Default is set at 3 days.
“Delay Between Heads”: select a time gap between dosing of different heads, to prevent unwanted
chemical interactions. Minimum setting is 15 seconds (default), maximum is 5 minutes.
These settings can be edited at any time from: Dashboard > 3dots menu > Device Settings
2. Notifications Setup
Select which notifications you would like to receive to your mobile when the App is closed.
“Head malfunction”: receive a notification if a head is missing or not attached properly during a
scheduled dose.
“Missed dose”: receive a notification at 12:00 if scheduled doses from the previous day were not
compensated and you have not yet opened the App to see the automated pop-up.
“Stock Level Monitor”: receive a notification when supplements need to be replenished.
These settings can be edited at any time from: Homepage > 3dots menu > Notification Settings

Adding additional ReefDose units
To connect an additional unit, open the Device Manager page from the Dashboard 3-dot menu and repeat the
process as above. Make sure that you connect all the units for one aquarium to the same home network.
Each unit will run independently of each other, therefore all supplements that may have a chemical interaction
if dosed together (such as calcium and KH) should be dosed from the same device.
Re-onboarding a deleted ReefDose unit
When on-boarding a ReefDose unit that was previously connected you are given the option of restoring all of
the previous settings.
ReefBeat Homepage
The ReefBeat homepage will show you the current status of all of your connected devices, and links you
directly to the settings Dashboard of your ReefDose. The homepage also has “Quick actions” buttons for
implementing frequent or important functions across all of the ReefBeat connected devices. The Quick
actions settings page and Device Manager are accessible from the 3-dot menu of the homepage.
If you have multiple ReefBeat devices, you can drag and drop the “device cards” to customize their order of
presentation in the homepage. You can also make the ReefDose card more compact by deciding which of
the heads details you want shown in the Homepage or even remove them all and just use it to access the
ReefDose dashboard.
Red Sea ReefDose®

Note: If you wish to change the supplement you are using in any given head, you must delete the head
then setup the head again from the beginning.
Homepage > Dashboard > Setup Head
Naming
If you are using Red Sea supplements, simply select from the drop-down list. If not, select “other” and enter a
supplement name of your choice. Please note that the first 3 letters of the name will be used to present this
supplement in the dosing log.
The information provided for the “other” supplements will automatically be added to your supplement library.
Priming
Priming fills the dosing tube with the supplement from the container to the tip of the dosing tube. Make sure
that the supplement is at the end of the outlet dosing tube before proceeding to the calibration.
The head can be primed either by pressing and holding the priming button on the device or by pressing
“Start” / “Stop” priming buttons in the App. To prevent accidents, the priming button in the App switches
off automatically after approximately 20ml which should be enough time to fill about 3m (10’) of tubing. If
necessary, you can restart the priming from the App as required.
ReefDose - head setup & calibration
Each individual dosing head needs to be set up before it can be used. The setup process for each head
includes defining the supplement and calibrating the head for that specific supplement. Calibration is
essential due to the varying viscosity of different supplements and the small differences in the components
of each head.
The calibration sets the exact volume of supplement that is dosed by each of the 3 rollers of the dosing
head and is normally in the range of 0.06 to 0.07 ml per roller.
In order for your head to work accurately, it must be calibrated the first time you use it to dose a new
supplement, then re-calibrated each time you replace the heads’ internal dosing tube. The accuracy of
the calibration will determine the accuracy of the dosing and therefore it is important to do this process
correctly. After initial head setup, each head can be recalibrated at any time either from the Head Setup
page or from the 3dots menu of the ReefDose dashboard Dashboard > 3dots menu > Recalibrate
Red Sea ReefDose®
19
ENG
Calibration
The instructions in the App will guide you through a simple calibration process using the laboratory grade
measuring cylinder provided with the unit.
Make sure that the measuring cylinder is clean and dry before each measurement as any drops left inside
will affect the accuracy of the reading.
Due to the physical properties of liquids the surface of the liquid inside a measuring cylinder is flat in the
middle but rise slightly at the sides. The correct measurement is at the center (lower part) of the surface
and not the sides.
The measuring cylinder has printed graduations every 0.1ml however you should estimate the volume to
the nearest 0.05ml which is half way between the printed graduations.
Always hold the tip of the dosing tube at the center of the cylinder so that the drops do not stick to the
cylinder walls.
During the calibration process the ReefDose doses a predetermined number of rotations of the dosing head
that should give a volume of between 4 and 5ml. Once you enter the exact volume into the App it will
give a confirmation dose of exactly 4ml so that you can confirm that the calibration was done correctly. The
confirmation dose should be between 3.95 and 4.05ml. If not, you will be guided to repeat the calibration
process again.

Scheduling
Automatic Dosing Schedule
A selection of “quick-set” automated dosing schedules can be set to run for each head on a regular daily
basis, or on selected days of the week. Additional manual doses can be added at any time and without
disrupting an automated schedule. The schedule can also be switched on and off as required, without losing
your settings.
Single dose, Hourly dose and Custom Periods dose schedules are based on a desired total daily dose (total
amount of supplement that should be dosed per day) for each head. The schedule will divide the total daily
dose volume equally between the total number (1-24) doses per day, so that you can easily update your
daily dose volume anytime. Individual doses may vary by up to 1 drop throughout the day to ensure the
single drop accuracy for the complete daily dose. The total daily dose per head can be from 0.2ml up to
1000ml in increments of 0.1ml, however the smallest individual dose is limited to 0.2ml.
You can change the total daily dose or the number of doses whenever desired. ReefDose will automatically
recalculate the dosing schedule for the rest of the day and if necessary will present you with options
regarding how to proceed. For example, if you increase the daily dose in the middle of the day when some
doses have already been given and there are still some more doses to give, ReefBeat will prompt you to
choose between dosing the new volume per dose for the remaining doses of today, or increase them to
compensate for the doses that were already given at the previous volume.
The Timer schedule enables you to set up to 24 doses each with its unique volume and specific time. The
ReefBeat will present the total daily dose, however, this is the sum of the individual doses and therefore
any changes to the schedule need to be done at the level of the individually set doses. When setting a
timer schedule the new schedule will be implemented immediately, without taking into account any of the
doses that may have been given earlier.
The automatic schedules can operate on three possible Dosing rates:
1) Whisper – approximately 15ml/minute.
2) Regular – approximately 30ml/minute.
3) Turbo – approximately 45ml/minute.
The dosing rate selected In Single dose and Hourly dose is applied to all doses in the schedule. In Custom
dose, a dosing rate is selected for each time period. In Timer schedule, the dosing rate can be selected for
each individual dose.
The “Dynamic Dosing Queue” in the unit combines the setting for the individual heads into a coordinated
