LOOP® IC Controller Programming
eFlux Wave Pump Programming
Press the wave pump key on the wireless remote you
are choosing to program, the designated pump icon on the LOOP
® IC Controller
will flash and show its current flow program.
Operational Flow Modes
There are three modes of water flow available for Pumps 1 and 2; Stream/Steady, Surge/Gyre and
Wave/Pulse. Note that Pump 3 is designated as a circulation pump and can only be programmed in
Stream/Steady Flow Mode.

When a pump is in Surge/Gyre mode, the pump will gently ramp up and down
to the maximum flow speed based on the frequency (time) programmed. This
mode mimics back and forth water surges found in the ocean. See GYRE for
using 2 pumps and creating Gyre flow.
When a pump is in Wave/Pulse mode, the pump will turn on/off, creating a
pulsing between the maximum flow and off. This flow simulates waves
commonly found on reef crests.
