    2. What power voltage should I use to power the RW-8's x2. Currently I run my pumps at about 30-40%
    Yes. Standard straight through ethernet.

    30% on the controller will probably be around 50% in the varspd.

    Hi. Thanks heaps.

    Do anyone have a code for a slow increase and decrease over a normal 6 hour tide period (running two x rw-8's? Cheers. For your help.

    I will have to look and see what power supply I use. I ran 2 RW8's until 1 died and I added WAV's but I still run the 1 RW8 left. If your are running just 1 you can use the supply that came with it but for 2 you will need a larger supply unit that I will look up this evening

    It doesn't ramp up and down much just a change from Day and Night but it's someplace for you to start. My code is as follows

    Outlet 6_4 ( where the controller is plugged in to )
    Fallback OFF
    Set ON

    4_1 ( Var SPD control )
    Fallback OFF
    If Time 09:30 to 19:00 Then JRWDay
    If Time 19:01 to 09:29 Then JRWNt
    If Output VO_Maint = ON Then OFF
    If FeedA 000 Then OFF

    Profile - JRWDay
    Type - Ramp
    Ramp Time 1
    Start Intensity: 64
    Stop Intensity:64


    Profile - JRWNt
    Type - Ramp
    Ramp Time 1
    Start Intensity: 40
    Stop Intensity:40

    I am setting up my Apex Classic and purchased the Jebao pump interface from another reefer. I set it up and programmed the waves but when I connected the pumps to the interface the pumps wouldn't power up. They run fine off of my Archon controller (which I am replacing with the Apex) so I know the powerheads are ok. I have the 24V supply and the interface module is connected to the V1v2 port on the Apex head unit. I can see the programming working on the Fusion dashboard but no pumps powering on. I get a solid green light on the power brick and the interface module. My minimum intensity that is programmed into the wave is 30%. What am I missing or what could be causing this to not run my pumps? Thanks for the help.

    Did you verify that the interface worked when you purchased it? Those have a bad track record of crapping out.

    Can you post screenshots of your code (so we can check it went in the right place) and pics of the setup

    Here is the code for one of the pumps. It is connected to base_Var1

    Set Wave1
    If Time 09:00 to 11:59 Then DuskDawn
    If Time 12:00 to 18:59 Then Wave1
    If Time 19:00 to 21:59 Then DuskDawn
    If Time 22:00 to 08:59 Then Night1
    If Output SurgeTimer = ON Then Surge1
    If Output Feeder = ON Then OFF
    Defer 005:00 Then ON

    Can someone tell me how to get the jabeo pumps to osc to a certain profile intensity, if I enter the osc code it just goes full blast and I need to calm it down alittle. I have 2 pp20 and 2 pp8 and seems like everything I try doesn't work to get them to osc correctly

    Don't use OSC, use profiles.

    I've tried that also and they oscillate and then come on at the same time every 2 or 3 rotations, I can't get it timed right.

    I have two Jebao OW pumps. Will the Apex adapter work with them?

    Is it best to use the variable speed task to set these up or profiles?

    I was using (2) Jebao PP-4's with the Jebao/Neptune adapter until the PP-4's died .
    Purchased (2) Jebao OW series wavemakers , but apparently the Jebao/Neptune adapter doesn't work with them .
    Any information on a Jebao/Neptune adapter that works with the OW series?
    Or detailed help/instructions on how to connect the (2) OW series to my Apex?

    Thanks in advance.

    I have the Jebao OW series and was about to purchase the full apex or ApexLE. Do you know since the Oct 19 post that there was a solution to control the Jebaos?
    I see there is a A1 Adapter but can that also connect to the apex? Please advise. wanted to get an Apex on the July 4th holiday sale

    Reviving this old thread. The new jebao SOW series work GREAT for me. Anybody had any luck controlling them with an apex? If so, how?

    Thank you for the help.
