If Time 08:00 to 09:00 Then ReefCrst
If Time 09:00 to 10:00 Then Lagoon
If Time 10:00 to 12:00 Then Pulse
If Time 12:00 to 13:00 Then TidalSwl
If Time 13:00 to 14:00 Then TidalSwl
If Time 14:00 to 16:00 Then Pulse
If Time 16:00 to 18:00 Then Nutrient
If Time 18:00 to 19:00 Then ReefCrst
If Time 19:00 to 20:00 Then ReefCrst

can you let us know how big your tank is and/or dimensions? your power lvls are set pretty high so if ppl were to copy your settings they should adjust that according comparing to your tank size. Thanks

Looks pretty good, but there is quite a bit of redundancy in your programming for the first pump. Here is a slimmed down version:

Fallback ON
Set Pulse
If Time 06:00 to 09:00 Then ReefCrst
If Time 09:00 to 10:00 Then Lagoon
If Time 12:00 to 14:00 Then TidalSwl
If Time 16:00 to 18:00 Then Nutrient
If Time 18:00 to 20:00 Then ReefCrst
If Time 20:00 to 21:00 Then Lagoon
If Time 22:00 to 06:00 Then Night
If FeedA 000 Then Slow
If FeedD 000 Then OFF .

Personally, I don't vary mine as much as many of the modes have built-in variability. I also mostly run sync as the pumps are running together more efficiently that way. I only run anti-sync a few times a day to stir up any dead pockets.

What mode will the vortechs run from 14:00-16:00, since you didn't have a setting for that period?

Looks pretty good, but there is quite a bit of redundancy in your programming for the first pump. Here is a slimmed down version:

Fallback ON
Set Pulse
If Time 06:00 to 09:00 Then ReefCrst
If Time 09:00 to 10:00 Then Lagoon
If Time 12:00 to 14:00 Then TidalSwl
If Time 16:00 to 18:00 Then Nutrient
If Time 18:00 to 20:00 Then ReefCrst
If Time 20:00 to 21:00 Then Lagoon
If Time 22:00 to 06:00 Then Night
If FeedA 000 Then Slow
If FeedD 000 Then OFF .

Good info.
Had my apex just setup but didn't program the WXM yet.
Something to do for my first day off this year.

I was programming my two MP40's yesterday and was seeing conflicting info. One says to set both as slaves and the other says to set one as master and the other as slave. Which way should it be? I set both as slaves and everything seemed to work.
