TLR Do I have the programming for my DC return pump correct if I only want it running at 40% during normal times, and shut off completely during feed modes?
I have a Jebao DC return pump, and I bought the AQ1 adapter in order to make it controllable via my Apex. However, I'm having trouble programming it. Actually, I'm having trouble getting it to work at all, but I have a couple other things to try. I mainly want to make sure I've got my programming correct. I'll start another thread if I can't get the module to work with the pump at all.
The proprietary Jebao controller has 10 lights, sort of like the Vortech MPs. I'm assuming they represent percentages of power. I run it at 40% According to this thread: https://forum.neptunesystems.com/showthread.php?25251-Programming-DC-pump-with-Apex-over-AQLink-A1 I could simply substitute 40 in place of the 90. Correct? So here is what I have programmed in Fusion:
Fallback 40
Set 40
If FeedA 000 Then OFF
If FeedB 000 Then OFF
If FeedC 000 Then OFF
If FeedD 000 Then OFF
Is this correct? If I can get the modules talking, this would keep the return pump at 40%? I had a power outage on Thursday, and my return pump came back on and roared all the way up to max power- I didn't have any floods, but everything was so turbulent and noisy that my wrasse buried itself until this morning, and my skimmer went nuts. In the future, I'd like for the pump to recover its programming when the power comes back on. I think the Apex will help with that, but only if I have it programmed correctly. Thanks!
