Can this pump be set to run in timed intervals or is it made to run continuously? If I want the pump to dose kalk 12 hours nightly is there a way to do it? TIA

AFAIK you could put it on a timed outlet like a smart plug, or a controller. Then it would run only when the outlet is activated

Thanks for the reply. When I tried with the Apex it seems that when the outlet reactivated the flow rate needs to be reset.

Is it on manual or automatic? I think manual defaults when power is lost but automatic should stay where you have it set

How do you set to automatic? No manual.

It's not the WIFI model.

Ah, you might be out of luck then. Gen one was available with Wi-Fi and I just assumed that’s what you had. Without Wi-Fi, I’m not sure if it defaults every time you power cycle it. I would have thought it would retain its setting though as a lot of people switch them off through a controller for maintenance tasks. I’m not familiar with that model and don’t know it they have an internal battery to retain settings or not.
Edit. I would email coral vue maybe they can help you out

Gen Two is the WIFI version. Just read that it should retain setting but it's not.

Found the problem. Swapped the driver board and pump is holding the previous speed setting.
