Question about Vortech MP40W

[mike31154]

You can save the 'wave' in both Short & Long Pulse mode by holding the Set button until the LED flashes green/white when you're done dialing it in. I can't honestly say that it will retain that setting if you switch to another mode, I'll have to try it. I run my two in Long Pulse mode (Master/Slave, anti-synch) and have saved the setting. I do know that the setting is retained if I unplug the Master. The Slave also remembers that it is in Anti-Synch after I power it down and back up again. The master shows the correct 'Salmon' colour LED when ramped up and a Green LED when at idle. I'm fairly certain the Green means the setting is saved.

I have the long pulses at about 10 seconds up to 80% power. It does not make a surface wave at that setting, but the flow in the tank alternates nicely with the two anti-synchronized.

With my MP40W I always have to reset it when leaving the long or short pulse mode when returning to those modes

with my mp40s, I just push the set button to start the pulsing again. I think it retains the cycle, but you might have to adjust the velocity again. I run my 2 vortechs opposing each other in a 4 foot 120 and get pretty good wave action.
