Hey guys,

I want to run stream pump group 5 (which has 1 member) at 16% during the evening and 18% during the day.

Is the below correct or do I need to drop the minimum to 16% (and if I do, will it change back up to 18% as soon as the nocturnal period ends)

Hopefully thats makes sense.

It should work as set, but shouldn’t mode be permanent? Maybe no current accomplishes the same thing.
Have changed to perm. Will see what it does tonight and tomorrow again I guess.

Mine is also set to Permanent, attached is my settings. (You also adjusted your Min max voltage for the pump already also?)

Your min and Max should also be the same, and your at night is correct. Mine is connect to a Red Dragon pump and been working great.

Thanks @Ditto and @sylvius

@Ditto - if the night is less than the minimum (after minimum is adjusted to = maximum) will it slow down during the night? I don't understand why you enabled nocturnal but have the same speed set (what exactly are you trying to achieve)?

Thanks

I think minimum only matters when you have a pulse or wave function. I currently have my fuge light set as a permanent pump using 1-10V and have it set to min 100 max 100 and night 0 with night set 9AM to 9PM. Right at 9 AM it turns off and at 9PM turns on at 100%.
