I am currently running two Jebao WP-40s on my 225gal and really like the pumps. No hacking, or wire cutting with the added Reef Angel (SpeedWave) adapter cable. I wanted some pumps that were controllable with my Apex to run various modes to try and simulate water movement. And with the Jebao WP-40 I think I have and at decent pricing.
For the Apex interface, I had a reefer friend crimp a Cat-5 connector onto some cat wiring I had bough from HD and had to order a VDM module as the variable speed ports on the Apex main module were used for LEDS.
(pixs not mine)
The smaller end goes the stock power supply,
To the pump
And these two to the Apex
The diy Cat 5 are those two wires (blue and blue w/white stripe) from the Apex VDM module (remember that I mentioned that I'm using the base "V" ports for the diy LEDS
No longer needed

Variable Speed Pump 1 and 2
WP40_Lt
Set Wave1
If Time 08:00 to 10:59 Then DuskDawn
If Time 11:00 to 14:00 Then Wave1
If Time 14:01 to 20:00 Then DuskDawn
If Time 20:01 to 07:59 Then Night
If Outlet Timer1 = ON Then Lt_Flush
If Outlet Timer2 = ON Then DuskDawn
If Outlet Timer3 = ON Then Wave2
If FeedA 000 Then OFF
WP40_Rt
Set Wave1
If Time 08:00 to 11:59 Then DuskDawn
If Time 12:00 to 14:00 Then Wave1
If Time 14:01 to 20:00 Then DuskDawn
If Time 20:01 to 07:59 Then Night

Pump Profiles:
Wave1 (main daylight wave pattern)
Synchronize Enabled
Divide by 10 Enabled
Initial off time (Seconds) 0
On time (Seconds) 7
Off time (Seconds) 4
Minimum intensity 0
Maximum intensity 100
Wave2 (Similar pattern to the above but Sync is disabled which creates abit more chaos)
Synchronize Disabled
Divide by 10 Enabled
Initial off time (Seconds) 0
On time (Seconds) 7
Off time (Seconds) 4
Minimum intensity 0
Maximum intensity 100
Lt_Flush
Synchronize Disabled
Divide by 10 Disabled
Initial off time (Seconds) 0
On time (Seconds) 30
Off time (Seconds) 30
Minimum intensity 0
Maximum intensity 90
Rt_Flush
Synchronize Disabled
Divide by 10 Disabled
Initial off time (Seconds) 30
On time (Seconds) 30
Off time (Seconds) 30
Minimum intensity 0
Maximum intensity 90
DuskDawn (This is a lower flow wave pattern used intermittently during the light hours as well as before and after lights go out)
Synchronize Enabled
Divide by 10 Enabled
Initial off time (Seconds) 0
On time (Seconds) 7
Off time (Seconds) 4
Minimum intensity 0
Maximum intensity 30
Night (Sets a constant 30% flow during light off hours)
Synchronize Disabled
Divide by 10 Disabled
Initial off time (Seconds) 0
On time (Seconds) 10
Off time (Seconds) 15
Minimum intensity 30
Maximum intensity 30
Virtual Outlets
3 timers. The timers are used to create short random periods of different flow during daylight hours.
Timer1 (turns on every 120 minutes for 10 minutes. If timer 2 is on at that time, it should remain off)
OSC 120:00/010:00/000:00 Then ON
If Outlet Timer2 = ON Then OFF
If Time 19:30 to 08:00 Then OFF
If FeedA 000 Then OFF
Timer2 (turns on every 45 minutes for 15 minutes except if timer 3 is on)
OSC 045:00/015:00/000:00 Then ON
If Outlet Timer3 = ON Then OFF
If Time 19:30 to 08:00 Then OFF
If FeedA 000 Then OFF
Timer3 (turn on every 15 minutes for 5 minutes except if timer 1 is on)
OSC 015:00/005:00/000:00 Then ON
If Outlet Timer1 = ON Then OFF
If Time 19:30 to 08:00 Then OFF
If FeedA 000 Then OFF
Hope this :help (2):
