Ecotech Reef Link and Apex Fusion - Beta Tester..

With all the equipment I have in my setup...
I was asked to test Neptune's Apex Fusion - Been using it for a little over a month - pretty slick interface, have asked for a few minor changes - waiting to see where they go.

Info: I am running 2 Apex systems - one Pro and the other is a Lite version on two tanks.
(Yes, I am going to finish tearing down the small tank and sell the Apex lite.)
But until then, running it has been flawless. Changing systems is just one click...easy.

Now, I have been placed on the Ecotech Reef Link - Beta test that starts in about a week with Ecotech's new software app that runs on a smart phone or Ipad.

I have been drooling on controlling my 4 MP10Wes and the Radion Pro with this software.
Will keep everyone up to date on the progress.

The Bata testing has been out for a while for the lighting however, to control you powerhesds still hasn't been released. I take it your running thus from a droid? I'm looking fwd to controlling my powerheads through ecosmart live.
 
Yes on light - Pumps is in a week... that's what I am most looking forward to.
I have 4 MP10Wes - so I want to setup a 2 x 2 - 2 during day at high rate surge and 2 at a lower setting - tidal combo.
Then night gently - 2 pump action .. shall be interesting what configs can be created.
Could do the whole thing with just 2 ... but I want to have side and front to back action as well.
 
I've been using Fusion since December. The new tables are amazing. Customizing flow and lighting patterns is SO easy and FAST. In the past, it was such a pain in the butt to create profiles and then put in the commands to change different flow patterns through out the day. My Radion Pro lighting schedule with the tables. Getting very good growth and color on SPS and LPS.

 
Just an update...

Ecotech
Been working with Shaun at Ecotech..
A bunch of changes from myself and others - product seems to work great at the moment.
Scheduling the pumps is a breeze.
Just connect the pumps one at a time thru the software and then edit - the built in schedule to your liking.
Example below:

Pump 1

10:00am Speed Up 20%-100% 10:00am-11:00pm
11:00pm Reef Crest 100% 11:00pm-3:00pm
3:00pm Export Nutrient 50% 3:00pm-5:00pm
5:00pm Reef Crest 100% 5:00pm-9:00pm
9:00pm Speed Down 100%-20% 9:00pm-10:00pm
10:00pm Lagoon 20% 10:00pm-10:00am

It works really nicely and you can hit the feed button - to turn down to preset settings..
Also change schedule cycles and mix and match... more to come.

Fusion:
Nothing new since last updates - Been asking for a better scale for parameters - by color or blocks.. still waiting for an update here.
Also I had two Apex's one on main system other on Frag tank.. can't seem to remove one.. requesting support here.
