They should be good to go provided you purchased MP40wQD and not just MP40QD as you post stated. If you did purchase a wQD and want to be sure, remove the 3 screws from the back of the controller, then remove the back cover. Pull out the board enough to see the wireless chip. If it is black, then you are good. If it is green, then you will need to upgrade. Another way to tell is within your devices on Reeflink if you have one. If the RFversion is 2.1 then you are ready. If it is 1.2 then you need to upgrade

I see what you mean. They are MP40wQD. I thought that Ecotech never released non-wireless QDs. Anyway, thanks for the hint. I will check the RFVersion to be sure.

I think the only non wireless vortech was/is the MP10.

I believe you are right but wanted to be sure it was mentioned just in case.

The anticipation is monthly updates but you never know. I personally will be posting when I learn of any new releases.

has there been any talk about outlet control?
i.e. heaters, temp monitoring?

Always but nothing confirmed lol. If there is then they are keeping it pretty quiet

i'd love something,
even if they just had a wireless 4 plug and a temp sensor, it might be enough for me to switch.......

however, mobius currently doesn't have and "programming" capability does it? everything is just a graphical wizard?

I agree a base set of outlets and temp would be awesome. No real need for ph and salinity. Heck I dont think I have checked ph in years.

As for programming, it is a very user friendly scroll wheels and slide bars etc basically. Not like Apex coding but no reason for it at this point

The app in the app store is only for the Versa pump. People are waiting for the update that includes other equiptment. Nice polite reply though.

Once the Vortech section has been added to Mobius then yes, Mobius will be able to control compatible MP40wQD pumps. If you just have a MP40QD, then you will need to purchase a black RF module for the controller. They are approx $47 (USD) and take less then 5 minutes to install and only require a Phillip's head (x) screwdriver.

I looked at my devices due to the fact I had to upgrade wifi for my reeflink and see that both mp40qds & 1of 2 radions show "upgradeable" for mobius, why doesn't the other radion state "upgradeable"?

Upgradeable means you need to buy a new RF Module for them that includes a bluetooth chip before they will work with Mobius. The new chip is black vs the old RF module that is green.

What does the other radion say? What model is it?
