OK, I am really freaked out by all the codes and VO's and everything else with APEX.
I am running Fusion and got my 3 Kessil A360w up and running fine.
I am concerned with screwing up my MP40's.
I have 4 x MP40wES on my 180 gallon in living room (I have 2 MP40w's on a 130 gallon in my office, in another room, other side of the wall from living room tank)
WXM module not connected yet but updated APEX base with new BETA software for the WXM
Here are my questions...
#1 once I plug in my WXM will it update to new BETA software?
#2 do I have to update my 4 MP40wES's drivers? All were manufactured in 2013.
#3 can I update and run my 2 MP40w's in the other room with APEX (abut 20 feet away in another room with wall between)
sorry for all the crazy questions, just don't want to screw up something or ruin my pumps.
I found this on another post, would this be what I nee to do to attaché my pumps to WXM, then program them in wizard?
also, do I assign positions of the pumps on the drivers (orange, white for right and left sides and turquoise for back of tank)
(Once you have confirmed your pumps have the required firmware version) see question 2,
you must “attach” the pump to the WXM so they can be controlled by the Apex system.
To attach the pump to the WXM:
1) The pump’s memory must be cleared so it can be attached to the WXM:
a. With the pump powered on, press and hold the Set and Mode buttons (about 3 seconds) until the pump’s LED flashes red/white/blue. Release the buttons.
b. Press and hold the Mode button (about 3 seconds) until the pump’s LED flashes purple/red. Release the button.
c. Press and hold the Set button (about 3 seconds) until the pump resets.
2) Assign the pump as a slave to the WXM:
a. With the pump powered on, press and hold the Set and Mode buttons (about 3 seconds) until the pump’s LED flashes red/white/blue. Release the buttons.
b. Tap the Set button.
i. If the pump was successfully attached to the WXM, the pump LED will flash blue/yellow.
ii. If the pump flashes blue/red, the attachment failed. Retry the procedure starting at step 1.
3) Once the pump has been attached to the WXM, an Apex Outlet will be created to allow programming of the pump. The first pump attached will be named VorTech_X_1 and the second VorTech_X_2. The X will be replaced with the AquaBus number assigned to the WXM on which the pump was attached. The default outlet names can be changed using typical Apex programming procedures. See the Apex Setup and Programming guide for more information.
The EcoTech Marine pumps attached to a WXM can be viewed from the Apex Display by opening the Control/Status – WXM Status screen.
Thank you for your help!
