Hi guys,
Okay, I need help setting up my Tunze 6101s.
This is what I have so far.

1 - PLM-4L Expansion Card (L5/6, L7/8)
1 - Tunze 1 Cable
1 - Tunze 2 Cable
1 - Y-splitter cable
2 - Tunze 6101s

I've connected everything and have assigned pump 1 to L5 and pump 2 to L6.

Please find attached my settings and let me know what I'm doing wrong as the pumps doesn't seem to respond (ie. when I put on feeding pause it doesn't work, and it doesn't seem to alternate flow creating waves). Thanks!

Thanks for responding.
So what kind of pumps are you using and how are they set up in your tank? My 6101s are pointed opposite of each other in the 4x2x2 tank. The main thing is that the pumps don't see to responding to settings, so I'm not sure if I got it right or not. Thanks again for the help.

Without an expansion card you only have L1-4. You have yours set at L5-6. Reset them to L1-1. They should work then.

I have 2X 6101s in the back corners with both pointing owrds the center of the tank which is 6'8".

Good observation, unless you have the EX upgrade which you don't or have an expansion card, you don't have L5L6 you only L1L2 and L3L4.

Hi Guys,
Actually I have the PLM-4L expansion card. L1/2 is for my breeze fans, and L3/4 is for my LED moon lights.
According to the third pics, I know the profilux is reading the expansion card.
The only thing is that the Tunze doesn't seem to react to my settings. Ie. If I press the feeding pause button on the unit, the tunzes don't shut off as it is suppose to. So I'm trying to figure out what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks again for helping!

AH ok then, click in the window at the bottom where you set the %, and you will see Behavior during feeding pause put it to "off". and it should work.

Also do not quote me on this but I really think that L5L6 and the one that are on the EX upgrade and would assume that your expansion card would be L7L8, L9L10, but not sure on that one. But would give it a try!
 
Woo hoo!!!! It worked!!! The feeding pause works, so that means the profilux is reading the Tunzes now!! Thank you my Canadian brothers!!
Now, gonna have to play around with pumps. Any suggestions on how to play around with the settings or are there any threads about in this forum or the Tunze forum regarding settings? Thanks again guys!!!

What fixed it?
 
It was that I didn't have the feeding pause set as you suggested. Now I'm playing around with the intensity of the waves and it seems to be working and responding. Also for the PLM-4L expansion card the bottom slot is L5/6 and the top slot is L7/8. Thanks again for all your help!
