Hi, I'm currently an Apex user and am looking to switchover to GHL.

Would i still be able to use my stand-alone Neptune gear like the Cor-20, ATK and Wav with the GHL Profilux?
 
I’m sure the cor20 and ATK can be used stand alone
Ah so Wav isn't stand alone. Thought they were. Thanks.

I wonder if anyone has programmed their stand-alone Neptune gear with the Profilux.
 
Only just took a quick look at the Wav, and it looks to be a 24VDC pump. The Profilux has 1-10V output control (L-Ports). That is for controlling things not powering them. So you would need a 24VDC power supply to power the pump, and that 24VDC power supply would have to have 10V control.

A couple of possibilities that could work. These are only off the top of my head and would need some research.
  1. Get a Tunze Turbelle controller, Tunze Turbelle 24V power supply and Profilux-Tunze cable.
  2. Get a Reef Brite Apex LED interface, Reef Brite 24V power supply and GHL S-Port/L-Port Breakout box.

Thanks Ingchr1! This sounds promising!
