I have a 10000II bought a little over a year ago. I know the new ones are apex ready but I'd prefer to not buy another pump. Has anyone controlled their non-apex ready Waveline with the apex, and how did you connect them?

Where did you see the new pumps are apex ready? I just see it saying apex coming soon. [emoji19]

You don't need to purchase a new pump, just the controller is required. Neptune was running this on their demo tank at MACNA:

Does anyone have some feedback on the interface? [emoji14]

Bump my question...also does it require a apex firmware update?

I just order a new Waveline DC Controller so I can control my pump via apex fusion

I understand I need to connect via cat5 or ethernet from the controler to apex.

Looking forward to creating some flow paterns within fusion. Has anyone done this yet? SHARE[emoji118] [emoji118]

Will I need to update apex, if yes to what version. [emoji118]

KimP, the interfaces are available separately. You need the DC10000II-A. I know BRS and Premium carry them- Google that part number and you'll find one easily.

Yes, that's the part I ordered DC10000II-A. I'm looking for more info on how to program in fusion, what version of apex will work (do I have to update apex software) and do I connect via cat5 or eithernet?

I just answered your similar post on the Neptune Systems Community Forum.
