Wxm won't control the vectra.

Just my two cents... Even though you can't control the Vectra I still say WXM. I control everything via Apex except my Waveline pump (other than on/off). The point is who cares. For most setups there is absolutely no need to control the speed of your main pump other than on/off (on Apex power bar) for feeding. You dial in a speed that works for you and leave it there. Changing the speed of the main pump affects water level which affects your skimmer and ATO (in most cases). I can see some situations for maybe wanting to control it like maybe closed loop but other than that control is pretty much pointless.

Exactly what I was just getting ready to type!

Pretty much nailed it right on the head
