So, what IS the EcoSmart Driver?
The EcoSmart driver is an upgrade for our existing Wireless Wave Driver (WWD) and will be included on all new EcoTech pumps. This driver has a new and improved wireless range, new “EcoSmart” wave modes, Auto Tune mode, and much much more.
With the introduction of the new EcoSmart driver to the market, we will be offering a wireless version of the MP10 which gives the discerning aquarist much more control over their small or medium size reef aquarium.
In addition to exciting new modes such as Wave Auto Tune and the EcoSmart multi pump modes, the wireless range of the EcoSmart wirelessly enabled drivers has been significantly increased. This allows for the controllers of slave pumps to be located further from sight or even in separate locations.

EcoSmart Tidal Swell Mode
In this EcoSmart mode water is circulated to create a harmonic balance in your aquarium reminiscent of the changing flow conditions that would be found in nature. Over the course of several hours, the flow pattern will go from very chaotic with an emphasis on left to right flow direction to an emphasis on right to left flow direction, all the while experiencing calm period in between and followed by a great surge of flow at the very end of the cycle. Adjusting the dial changes the maximum speed achieved at any time during this mode. Slave pumps should be positioned opposite the master and on the back of the tank to take full advantage of the EcoSmart modes.

EcoSmart Nutrient Transport Mode
In this EcoSmart mode, water is circulated in a two phase program consisting of wave motion to stir up detritus and surging motion to move the detritus into your overflow where it can be skimmed out. This effect promotes maximum health and nutrient export, as well as increased growth for sensitive corals such as SPS. Adjusting the dial changes the maximum speed achieved at any time during this mode. Slave pumps should be positioned opposite the master and on the back of the tank to take full advantage of the EcoSmart modes.

Classic Reef-Crest and Lagoonal Random Modes
In random mode you can toggle between two different modes, Reef-Crest and Lagoonal. When a pump is in Lagoonal Random Mode, the dial is used to set the maximum operational speed, and the driver will automatically randomize the pumps output to simulate either a high (Reef-Crest) or low (Lagoonal) energy reef environment. If this pump is a master, the associated slave pumps will replicate the master in sync or anti-sync modes.

아아 안되 최근에 LED샀는데 ㅎㅎ
슬라아우님 안녕~!
아직도 어항 하나보네?
(본지 오래되서 예전에 반말을 했는지 존대를 했는지 까먹었어..
ㅠㅠ)
ㅎㅎㅎ 아니요 2006년 이후로 쭉 접고 있다가 어제 소금풀었어요. ㅎㅎㅎ 말씀 편하게 하세요
어항을 시작하려다 보니 애기가 걱정인데 아이를 위한 보호조치는 어떻게 하셨어요? 조명은 가림막으로 막으신 것 같은데, 충돌 방지라던가, 어항 문 여닫이 방지라던가요
조명은 가림막이 꼭 있어야지 그렇지 않으며 키가 작은 아이들이라 안되겠더라구. 나는 딸 둘이라 그런지 어항을 막 열고 그럴정도로 액티브 하지 않다우. 보행기로 다니니까 충돌방지 같은 것도 딱히 없고 전기콘센트 근처에만 가까이 가지 않게 하면 될 것 같아.
