Feed mode with multiple Vectras

I am using 4 Vectra L1s for various purposes on my system. When I initiate feed mode, I only want 2 of the 4 pumps to enter feed mode. I would like the remaining 2 pumps to just continue using their schedule. Can this be done? Currently, when I initiate feed mode, all calibrated pumps enter feed mode but this isn't what I want.

Thanks for your help.
 
Have you tried creating a 2nd "virtual" aquarium? Assign your 2 pumps to this 2nd aquarium. When you select feed mode for your real (1st) aquarium, your 2 pumps will continue on as programmed.
 
Thanks. That sounds like it might be my solution. Currently, for one pump, I just didn't calibrate it. Uncalibrated pumps won't enter feed mode. Unfortunately my other pump requires calibration for its installed use...but I think your suggestion might be a good fix. Thanks.

Got any pics? Would love to see what you're up to.

Just two pumps for returns, 1 driving a Lifereef protein skimmer, one driving a Turbos Aquatics algae scrubber. Eventually I'll get around to making a build thread...including pictures.
