    Here’s my programming. Maybe what you’re looking for.

    Right WAV



    Left WAV

    The slider for some WAV modes like Pulse is not a percentage; it is the period in seconds

    Pulse mode does not turn the WAV on & off. Pulse oscillates the WAV between the configured intensity and 1% (not OFF) at the configured periodicity.

    Pipeline mode oscillates the WAV between the configured intensity and OFF.

    I️ do love the wave pattern that the pipeline mode produces, only negative is the ‘clicking’ noise that it makes while cycling on and off. That’s why I️ have it set like this cause I’m usually not home in the afternoons so I️ don’t hear it. And I️ used a feed mode to create weather patterns in my lighting profile and and also ruining pumps up to 100%. Kind of a cool feature.

    Also on your Inverse settings you'll want to set that at 100%. That would mean the pump would run at the same intensity as the pump you are referencing. What you have set in your screenshot would make the second pump run at a lower intensity than the 1st pump. For inverse and mirror the % you are setting is not directly the pump intensity. In those modes it is the % of the referenced pump.

    Example.
    Pump 1 set to 50% Pulse

    Pump 2 set to 50% inverse of pump1.

    In this example pump 1 would run at 50% intensity and pump 2 would run at 25% intensity (50% of what pump 1 is running at).

    How do you get into the slider menu as shown in the screen shot above? I've got a jebao sw pump and I'd like to be able to use pulse like that. I only have the option for power setting not interval setting like what is shown

    That is only for WAV and vortech pumps. Jebaos can only do those modes with profiles.
