@rvitko,
I have two new 6105 Eco pumps with the 7020 controllers. I'm having trouble with the food timer. I am using them in manual mode, connected to each other via 3.5 mm aux cable, with one set in manual mode and the other in analog mode as leader and follower. I tried using the Tunze hub, was able to connect both pumps to the hub but found it confusing to use and would prefer to just use the 7020 controllers, for now at least.

The problem is that when I press the food timer button it only shuts off for one minute, not 10. When they are not linked via aux cable and both are in manual mode the food timers only pauses the pumps for one minute, not 10 minutes like the manual says it should. When I have them linked as leader and follower, with both food timers activated the leader shuts off for 1 minute and the follower stays off for 10 minutes. If I reverse the settings, i.e. switch which one is set in manual mode and which is in analog mode they both turn back on after 1 minute. What is going on here? Is there a way to reset the duration of the food timer without connecting to the Tunze hub? Also, when they are linked as leader and follower is pressing the food timer button on one of them supposed to shut both pumps off, or do I need to push the food timer button on both of them? Thanks.
