Any one tell me how to make the cord that eliminates the factory controller for the jebao pump? I've searched and read but can't seem to find definite answer. Reef angel sells this modded cord but had no description on it any help will be appreciated

For apex control it's not plug and play BUT it's a very simple mod

Anyone have information on how to program them via the Apex?

The main reason I do it is to be able to run 2 pumps in anti-sync mode. I also can change the flow of the pumps throughout the day or night. 4 times a day while the lights are on I run both at 100% for 5 minutes to stir things up. The rest of the day I run on 15 second anti-sync pulse. The left side goes from 30 to 75 and the right side goes from 30 to 50. It's great to have fine control of the pumps so you can get them to do exactly what you need depending on what type of tank you have.
Some people are even controlling their DC return pumps to do tidal surges throughout the day and night. There are endless things you can do when you have the control.

Lemonyx, ReeferBee, You both seem to have already modded and hooked up your Jabeo's to your Apex's. Have you taken into consideration that the Apex puts out 10VDC and the Jabeo only uses 5VDC? I have a thread in the DIY that address's this question along with a diagram that I followed off of RC. Right now I have my programming for the pumps set at 50% or max voltage for the Jabeo but I cant use the same programming as for my Tunze's. Or Can I? Here is my thread. https://www.reef2reef.com/forums/do...controlled-apex-without-reef-angel-cable.html

the reef angel cable is modded to cut the 10v's to 5v's so no over powering the Jebao and yes, reeferbee it's plug and play (you just bought a modded cable and attached it, not modded it), I did no cutting with the reef angel cable and from the apex side I just inserted the Cat 5 wire into each plug

I went with the RA Jebao adapters, they work just fine.
This is my Apex programming for 2 Jebao WP40
WP40_Lt
Set Wave1
If Time 08:00 to 10:59 Then DuskDawn
If Time 11:00 to 14:00 Then Wave1
If Time 14:01 to 20:00 Then DuskDawn
If Time 20:01 to 07:59 Then Night
If Outlet Timer1 = ON Then Lt_Flush
If Outlet Timer2 = ON Then DuskDawn
If Outlet Timer3 = ON Then Wave2
If FeedA 000 Then OFF
WP40_Rt
Set Wave1
If Time 08:00 to 11:59 Then DuskDawn
If Time 12:00 to 14:00 Then Wave1

If Time 20:01 to 07:59 Then Night
If Outlet Timer1 = ON Then Rt_Flush
If Outlet Timer2 = ON Then DuskDawn
If Outlet Timer3 = ON Then Wave2
If FeedA 000 Then OFF
Pump Profiles:
Wave1 (main daylight wave pattern)
Synchronize Enabled
Divide by 10 Enabled
Initial off time (Seconds) 0
On time (Seconds) 7
Off time (Seconds) 4
Minimum intensity 0
Maximum intensity 100
Wave2 (Similar pattern to the above but Sync is disabled which creates abit more chaos)
Synchronize Disabled
Divide by 10 Enabled
Initial off time (Seconds) 0
On time (Seconds) 7

3 timers. The timers are used to create short random periods of different flow during daylight hours.
Timer1 (turns on every 120 minutes for 10 minutes. If timer 2 is on at that time, it should remain off)
OSC 120:00/010:00/000:00 Then ON

Digital Aquatics just release a cool new interface that can be used on any system with a 0-10v output. It is set up for 2 pumps and uses the power supply that comes with the pump. They are sending instructions on how to use it with other systems too.
