3V-12V DC motor controlled by Apex.. is it possible?

[Electrobes]

I am racking my brain trying to figure out how to get my Apex, specifically the "Pump Profile" function to control my 3V-12V DC motor. Is there anything out there that would allow the Apex to control this motor?


I have an Apex VDM (Along with my Apex Jr.), but the DC motor does not have signal wires... so I need something to actually send variable power to the DC motor... something that would probably go in between the VDM and the DC Motor.


Any suggestions would be highly appreciated.


Thanks!

Can I ask...
What kind of DC pump you are running? How long you have had it installed? Have you had any problems with DC pumps ?

I will want to control a DC pump with Apex also and looking for options.

I'm assuming that the VDM is a PWM source/signal, so you'll need to verify it. You need a MOSFET transistor and a 12v power source. The MOSFET will act like a relay for the pump and 12v power source. You'll also wire it up like it is a relay.
