Vortech MP40 Anti sync

[Nick Rose]

I've been testing out the anti sync with our old MP40 and having a problem. Its set to 100% of the Master which is at 40%. It works fine for awhile but then it goes full blast. Why would it do this. It just recently did it with the Nutrient Export mode

With the EcoSmart modes (tidal swell and nutrient transport) the maximum setting for the pump is NOT a percentage of the master like it is with the other modes.

Ok. So that makes since that it would be going full blast when I have it at 100%. It will still mimic the master just not the speed?

With EcoSmart modes there is not really master/slave relationship. They’re labelled left/right/back positions instead, and the pumps behave how they’re designed to run in that mode in each respective position. Ecotech has some pretty good diagrams on their website about how each pump will act over the course of the mode.
