MBVette October 15, 2012 October 15, 2012 I am trying to pair up my 3 MP40's with the WXM and cant seem to figure it out. I am trying to set them as a slave, but Im guessing b/c there is no master they are not accepting slave? Programming an apex is the biggest PITA I have ever dealt with setting up a tank. As intuitive as these things are they are not easy to setup at all. So if anyone can help me figure out how to connect the MP40's to the wxm I would be very appreciative.
Gatortailale October 15, 2012 October 15, 2012 I rune Tunze streams that I got before vortex came on market. Not sure if you need separate vortech controller or if that just gives you "extra" control options for wireless units. http://www.neptunesystems.com/vortech-wireless-module-wxm/ If nobody here helps - try Nepture forum on Reef Central.
scott711 October 15, 2012 October 15, 2012 Have you looked at the unofficial guide? You have to have a master and then the other two will be slaves. If you have other questions let me know
MBVette October 15, 2012 Author October 15, 2012 Well with the apex wxm the apex is supposed to be the master. But I can not figure out how to set it up like that.
scott711 October 16, 2012 October 16, 2012 That is correct. The Apex WXM is the master and the vortechs are the slaves (I forgot). I had difficulty too until I noticed that the pump names were appearing on the bottom of the status screen. Follow the instructions on the unofficial guide. If you have problems send me a pm and I can see if I can help.
MBVette October 16, 2012 Author October 16, 2012 So now I have it doing the ecosmart update and it is taking forever, like 0% after 20 minutes. Any idea why it is not updating?
