Reeflink

Rate this Entry
I recently upgraded my 2 mp60's to the quiet drives. I initially had an issue with night mode and to make a long story short I purchased a Reeflink. Firstly, it was a breeze to set up and found both vortecs right away. Nice! I found that the night mode function has been eliminated in ecotech live. It is now just constant speed mode which is essentially the same thing. Ecosmart modes are initially pre programmed so I chose to change those modes to better match what I had going on before the upgrades.
I really like the new functions and programming options. The only thing I'm finding a bit of a struggle is when I drag and drop a mode to either of the programs it is time consuming to try and change the duration of each mode. Setting the start times is easy.
Is there a tutorial that I've somehow missed to do this easily?
Any input is appreciated.

    It took me hours to get my 2 MP10's programmed. It is not very intuitive. When I would add a mode it would not always go where I put it. I had to start over several times it would get so messed up. Good luck.

    Hmm. I had the opposite experience. My only difficulty right now is setting the duration. I plan to have another crack at it tonight. I'll post later on to detail my results.

    It may be because I was adding more than one feed mode. 4 to be exact. I saved it when I got it right but when I used the saved one to try and program the other pump only one feed mode was there.

    I'm very new to the Reeflink and Ecosmart set up. I managed to resolve my duration settings. It was an "ah hah that's how you do it" kind of thing. I had to be precise on the whole drag and drop thing and give the system a couple seconds to recognize what I'm doing. So far I've found that each Vortech must be programmed separately. I haven't explored the sinc/anti sinc set up though. Could you show or describe your programs? I'm very interested.

    I've felt that the programming is great, IF you know how to do it. The interface is not intuitive. I wish there was an "enable melev mode" with all kinds of documentation to make stuff be more obvious, and later I can turn it off. Sometimes I discover things accidentally, other times I have to be told where to look.

    I just got my Vectra programming updated in ESL. I added new data points to increase the flow over the day, and slow down into the evening.

    Here is my 60g cube schedule.



    And the 400g vortech schedule

    I can't seem to figure out how to post a screen shot of mine. Not that mine are interesting,I'm only using constant speed and short pulse so far.
