Figured I’d share how to activate feed mode on a Hydros Wave Engine for anyone that uses one. This can all be done from connect app. Go into 0-10v and select the port you are going to use. I am using port 1 as example

Set to STREAM MODE select functional parameter, I’m using 1 as in L1 port. Then set your max voltage. You can set this to anything you want up to 10v. I’m setting mine to 5v. Hit save and then go to extras

After extras click on streams groups

I’m picking stream group 1 for example

Now you will set up what you want that group to do. You want to make the mode NO CURRENT and the
Waves- NO WAVES scroll down to the bottom and hit ASSIGN PUMP select the pump and add it to the group. We are using pump 1 so pick it to add it.

Click on the gear of the pump you just assigned and you need to adjust its settings. These are the most important setting of the whole setup.
Set your MINIMUM to 100%. And set your MAXIMUM to 100%. Night and thunderstorm mode can be set to zero. And the PUMP COMPLETELY OFF DURING INACTIVITY must be set to ON. And set behavior during feed pause to AT MINIMUM. And you can set Reacts to as 1 or all of your feed modes. Hit apply to save it.

After these settings are done on Ghl you the. Have to set up the Wave Engine to accept the activation. Open the Hydros app and go into the modes setting and create a mode and call it feed. And set your settings to activate at the voltage you set. (5v) in this example. Hit upload at the bottom and you are set.

Just as a side note the Wave engine plug to go to control is called the Apx adapter. As most would surmise this plug is setup to plug into an Apex VDM port. GHL as we all know has a different size plug called an RJ12/RJ25. Most people to adapt these would cut the ends off of the cable and go through an S-port L-port box. I did not want to cut the apx cable because they can also be used as an output cable on the WE to run devices that have the RJ45 variable speed port in place of the radio jack style plugs. If you want to use Jebao pumps you need this cable. So to adapt them I used a surface mount RJ45 box and adapted 2 Ghl cableS to the proper outputs on the Rj45 jack.

So now I have L1/L2 on one plug and L3/L4 on the second plug and can run other apex compatible equipment without cutting cords. If you are brave enough to try these adaptions just remember that a miswire could be bad. I outright eliminated extra wire output with my adaptation. There are no thru 12v power or relay wires going past where I cut the end of the cable and nothing can contact anything else to fault out. I only carried thru L1 +, L2+, and the ground. The ground needs to be jumped across to 2 ports on the RJ 45 plug because the 8 wire system has 2 grounds.

Old post, but:
1. Do you have a link to the Parts on Amazon?
2. What do you mean by “a miswire could be bad”? Like, kill the equipment bad?

I just ordered an Icecap 4k Gyre and a Wave Engine. I’m thinking of just moving from GHL to CoralVue b/c I haven’t yet found the GHL juice to be worth its headache inducing squeeze. But if I can get the two to play nice, then that seems like a good thing…

thanks!
