MP10qd vs. MP10wqd

[PugsAndFish]

Can someone help me understand the wireless mp10? Is the wireless function of mp10wqd usable if there is no Reeflink or WXM from Apex?

I don't plan on getting a Reeflink and don't plan to spend >$100 for WXM if not needed so I'm thinking of just getting the non wireless one unless there is something about the wireless one I'm not thinking about..

Nope the wireless is for wxm or reef link.

Not true. Two wireless vortech can talk to each other. Reeflink or WXM ceratainly add capabilities but even without them, two pumps with wireless cards can interoperate either in synch or anti synch.

True I forgot about that part. I don't remember the price difference between the two. If it's not much just get the wireless. You never know if or when you will upgrade

Ok so is this correct?.....

the wireless mp10 (mp10wqd) is only useful if

1) I have Reeflink or WXM OR
2) I have more than 1 wireless mp10s to talk to each other (and don't need Reeflink or WXM for this)
​

Can I use the Apex VDM to control the vortechs?

1) and 2) correct. VDM cannot be used to control the vortech as far as I know. The cost difference between the wireless and non wireless versions is just essentially the cost of the wireless card. It can be bought separately and is a trivial install.
