Should I just power them on/off together and accept the few second lag on the MP40's, because as far as I know, that's the only way to do it? Or is there some way I don't know of/haven't thought of? I don't/won't use an Apex, but I do use Hydros, it's easy enough to sync the power on/off. Thanks!

EcoTech Marine VorTech™ pumps can be controlled wirelessly by the WaveEngine. To do so, you’ll first need to purchase the appropriate WaveEngine model with the EcoTech Marine wireless card installed.

This version of the WaveEngine costs $50 more than the standard version, but it’s money well spent if you want to control all your pumps from different brands using a single app. The way to control EcoTech Marine pumps like the VorTech is by using their wireless Slave Mode. Now you can use your VorTech pumps in conjunction with the other pumps you own!”

I have the ETM wave engine and use two MP40’s and two 330 gyres. All are playing nice with each other. You’ll need older MP40 drivers (WiFi chip) that haven’t been updated to mobius.

So will newer mp40s work with this? Mine have möbius?

Anyone know if Nero pumps work with the wave engine?

You’ll need to rollback the firmware in order to use them with the wave engine.
