If this is posted in the wrong group my apologies in advance.

I've always had MP's and loved the chaotic random flow programming for my SPS. With my new build I went with Tunze 6105's with wide housings connected to my APEX. I've set things up with one running a pulse setting while the other is constant and have them switch back and forth over a period of a few hours but was curious to see what others have done with their programming to accomplish the same.

Anyone here have something like this setup? Care to share?

Thanks!

I would be interested as well. I have my Tunze Streams on 10 different profiles during the day but still not 100% happy with the results

I figured out the code for two tunze pumps that works pretty well.
One pump turns on for 10 seconds then off, the the other turns on for 10 seconds then off. You can also stager them so at times they will both be on for a while before the both start turning off at different times but each lasting 10 seconds to create more random flow.

VarSpd1: don't put in code!

OSC 000:00/000:10/000:10 Then ON
Fallback ON
If Time 20:00 to 07:59 Then OFF
If Time 08:00 to 22:09 Then ON

VarSpd2: don't put in code!

OSC 000:10/000:10/000:10 Then ON
Fallback ON
If Time 20:00 to 07:59 Then OFF
If Time 08:00to 22:09 Then ON

with the ON time of the second pump 10 seconds later they will always be in opposition. On one of the pumps if you change the first 10 to a different start time the pumps will obviously be random and sometimes tandem to each other. HOPE THIS HELPS! Make sure your tunze controllers are on EXTERNAL CONTROL which is the bottom orange/yellow light.
