I just installed the latest firmware. On pre-programmed modes, the lunar and the OGC I cannot get the max speed to go under 40 on lunar or 30 on OGC and the flow is too much with two gyres. Tank is 125 gallon, 6ft long. Would like a little less flow for some of my corals and fish. Why can't set them lower than this speed? Thank you.

Yes, the presets still need some type of high flow to create the high tide reef crest flow. In your special case, I would suggest creating your own preset. There you should be able to set the max speed to 40% on all flows.

Carlos, I am having a similar problem.

In OGC, the pumps ramp up to 90%. But I set the max to 40. No matter what I set it to, it runs at 90%.

You reference changing presets? Where and how?

What firmware are you running on the control unit? Make sure you are running the latest. To update, http://maxspect.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=96&Itemid=493&lang=en
