Here is my pair on my 225. Left pump makes the rolling waves and right pump is in ELSE mode.

Here is just one pump in the tank making a wave.

Does anyone know if the magnets to hold the pump are strong enough for 1" acrylic?

Hi nightowl. How is the comparison of the noise produced by a 6105 (I have one and to me that would be the 0 in the scale) and the noise produced by a WP40?

Thanks

Sorry, the question should be addressed to Editour2

Let us know how it goes. I have a 75 also and since the wp 25 looks to be too weak I may go with 1 wp 40.

the brown wire is the +24V DC

The white wire is the connector for the 0-10V analog connected between ground and +5V analog input to the pump. Remember you have to keep the signal from your device toa maximum of 5 volts.

Any updates from RA folks who are trying to control this pump?

I ordered mine on the 12th (i think), it left Hong Kong on the 14th, arrived in SF on the 15th, made its way to CT late last night and left there this morning. Who knows....maybe I will get it today. So all in all a little over a week from time of purchase. My only disappointment is that I didnt order two of these!!!

What is else mode?

Not quite. It cycles through the various modes and speeds. I'm not sure the exact algorithm, I don't thinks it is completely random.
