Jebao mod w/ apex

[ryecoon]

I was hoping to reach out to some of you who have jebao powerheads connected to Apex using mod cord? Ive been getting confused on how to program profiles to have alternate flow, Wave, Lagoon, and low intensity for night. Do i use the same settings as Vortech? pls help. start to finish instructions. thx

 

[Adam Baggett]

I don't but I am very interested as I want to do this also.

 

[gpdno]

Yes.

If you check out the forum at Neptune systems they have a very nice program that I copies.

Yes.

Ive been searching on there and i cant find specific instructions on how to program profiles to do up and down intensity and pulse, wave, lagoon etc.

[ryecoon]

nice. Exactly what i was looking for. So the vortech settings can also work for Jebaos?

 

[gpdno]

Yes. They work fine.

Sweet. I will experiment with both of your profiles. I want to learn what functionality does what. i can never get the OSC settings.

I really need to dissect this and figure out what function does what.

Yep. My light cycle actually does not start until 2:30. I am a night owl.

If you have questions fire away. I am not an expert, but I learned a lot while setting mine up last week.

nice

 

[ryecoon]

Im having a little trouble figuring out what OSC is? and how that works. in lamens terms lol

 

[ryecoon]

the Timers. Are those new profiles and how to i create a Virtual outlet. kinda confused sorry. Im gonna copy these settings but i wanna understand what entering.

 

[EllisJuan]

The timers are virtual outlets. You can create them in the Configuration>Module Setup page. Then you can configure them in the Configuration>Outlet Setup page.

 

[ryecoon]

Okay i will try that.

Im having a little trouble figuring out what OSC is? and how that works. in lamens terms lol

OSC context is basically Off/On/Off. So in my flush outlet program it has "OSC 141:00/003:00/000:00 Then ON". OSC timers restart at midnight. So 141 minutes after midnight (2:21am) the timer turns on for 3 minutes then the timer starts over right away because of the 000:00. The last "000:00" in the statement is what I think confuses most people. If the statement was "OSC 141:00/003:00/010:00 Then ON" it would wait 141 minutes, turn on for 3 minutes, wait 10 minutes, then start the timer over waiting another 141 minutes. So it would basically be 141 off, 3 on, 151 off, 3 on, 151 off, 3 on, etc. I am hoping this makes sense, it is hard to describe. I drew this up to try to visually explain it...
