Profilux connectivity to the new Octo Pulse 4 Wave Pump

I was just reading/watching reviews on this new "Propeller Pump" and it looks very promising. My question here is how easy (dummy it down please) would it be to control one of these using a GHL P3 controller?

The stats state:
"0-10 V External Controller Connection"

What would a new user need in order to connect to this via a Profilux controller? I'll be the first to admit I'm "0-10 V External Controller Connection" ignorant.

Here's a link to the unit I'm questioning:

Thanks in advance gang for your help & support.

I am thinking it would be this cable?

Thank you. I went to your link and then saw another option that might also work especially i f I go with a pair of the Octo 4's.

This is a similar cable but it's a "Y" cable and they specifically mention Reef Octopus

Just guessing I sent an email to support of the maker of the pump asking.

did you ever get a reply regarding Octo Pulse controllers and GHL Profilux?

No and I sent it twice

@premiumaquatics - what accessory is required for 0-10v control of this pump?

Don't think they came out with a box like the GHL Vortech Controller which controls MP10/40s vortech pumps.

There's a video by Coralvue about the Pulse 4 and APEX, basically buy a 0-10V cable, 1 end goes into Octo controller, other end which is ethernet-like goes into APEX...done.


I'm guessing here, unless they come out with a GHL Octo Controller, you will have to stick with original controller OR you could try buying the same cable and plugging it directly into your Profulix....probably not a good idea until you get confirmations from GHL

You just need to wire the cable for the profile since it uses rj12.

The Ecotech is a way better pump than the Octo Pulse. It has be proven for years now with great success.

Thanks for the answer, and yes I agree with you about the Ecotech and it comes with all spar parts and easy to find them.
