Eco-Back – The EcoSMART Back Type allows for one pump to run the EcoSMART 
Back pump mode. See the EcoSMART Pump’s owner’s manual for more details. The 
maximum intensity as well as the master pump to be synchronized to is specified in 
this profile type. Eco-Back a non-EcoSMART pump to an EcoSMART pump is not 
possible. 

ADVANCED PROGRAM EXAMPLE 
The following program assumes that there are two pumps in the Aquarium – one on the 
right side, and one on the left side. This example shows how each pump can be controlled 
independently, and its mode of operation changed multiple times throughout the day. 
 
The following table shows how the profiles required for this program example.
