7095 sends "jolts" to the streams

[br1200]

Hi Rogar,

I recently bought 1 7095 controller & 6100 & 6101 streams.

The streams are set on interval #2 with about 90 min switching between pumps on 100% power.

It is all working nice and well, BUT while one pump is working, the other is geting "jolts" from the controller.

What I mean is that is the idel pump is flikkerring (on/off) for a second. The "jolts" occur about 10 ~ 15 seconds.

I've tried to switch pump cables (to 7095) and sides, and it did not help.
It looks like the controller is sending on/off commands to the idel pump, no mater which side.


My questions:
1) Is it normal?
2) Is it harmfull for the pumps?
3) What can be done about it?

I do realize you're on vacation , but maybe someone else has similar issues.

Thanks for any help

It's supposed to do that. I think it is called the fish saver.

Thanks Zens,

Do you have the same experience?
Its basically like a "click" every 10 sec on the idel pump.

I saw a similar post with 7095 & nonostreams doing the same thing.

Thanks
