I have 4 tunze in 1 stream group. Set from 35-100. Shouldn't all 4 be random flow. It seems only 2 are changing as 2 are staying at minimum. Is that the random for 4 tunze. 2 at a time change then switch to two different pump

I just logged in and saw 3 pumps changing flow but matching flow and one on minimum.

I decided to just out 1 pump on their own stream group as random flow. They all are staying at minimum except 1 is changing to random flows. ?

Errr that didn't work. Having one tunze per stream group and all 4 groups random flow. Still is only having one at a time change flow patterns. And other three groups stay minimum. How do I get all 4 tunze to run random flows all at the same time?

Do you have some screenshots of you settings? I made 2 stream groups (with 2 pumps in each) so I could apply different timings to each group (to make them even more random as a whole). On the 1-10v lines I see all 4 pumps ramping up and down.

Could it be as simple as 1 pump has the same min/max values as each needs to be set seperatley

Then setup 4 stream groups (1 in each) and add a different time - this will give the most random effect you can have. Throw in a thunderstorm (so they run at 100%) and stir up detritus

I did 4 different groups. And it seemed only 1 group was going random flow. And other 3 would run minimum. It's like only one group would allow ramping at a time. It was basically equivalent to sequence mode.

Once group 4 would do random flow for the the allotted time. A different stream group started. Instead of all 4 doing random flows at the same time

Ditto, recommended just putting them on permanent. I did permanent for all stream groups. 1 pump per group. So now they are all changing flow on their own brain. Different speeds and different times
