  • MODE баскычы: Cycles through the 6 available wave patterns (M1-M6).
  • FRE/HZ Button: Adjusts the frequency or speed/flow level (01-99, 20 speeds adjustable). This also controls the direction in some modes.
  • FL/NIGHT Button: Toggles the light sensor (L:ON / L:OFF) and activates Night Mode, which can reduce intensity during nighttime.
  • WI-FI/FEED Button: Activates Feed Mode (FE:10 for 10 minutes, F-- to turn off) and manages master/slave control (Wi:M for master, Wi:F for slave, Wi:N for individual control).
  • LED дисплей: Shows current mode (M1-M6), frequency/flow (Fre:XX), light sensor status (L:ON/OFF), feed mode status (FE:XX or F--), and master/slave status (Wi:M/F/N).

Wave Modes and Settings

The wave maker offers 6 distinct wave patterns to simulate various aquatic environments:

  • M1: Constant Current Mode - Provides a steady, continuous flow.
  • M2: Classic Wave - Generates a regular, oscillating wave pattern.
  • M3: Classic Reverse Wave - Similar to M2 but with reversed flow direction.
  • M4: Sine Wave Pattern - Creates a smooth, undulating flow.
  • M5: Turbulence Mode - Produces a more chaotic and irregular flow.
  • M6: Unilateral Switching Mode - Alternates flow direction from one side.

басыңыз РЕЖИМ button to cycle through these patterns. Use the FRE/HZ button to adjust the intensity or frequency of the selected mode (from 01 to 99). The display will show "Fre:XX" indicating the current setting.

Feed Mode

To temporarily pause the wave maker for feeding, press the WI-FI/FEED button. The display will show "FE:10", indicating a 10-minute pause. The pump will automatically resume operation after 10 minutes. To manually exit feed mode, press the WI-FI/FEED button again; the display will show "F--".

Light Sensor and Night Mode

The wave maker features a light sensor that can automatically adjust pump intensity during nighttime hours. Press the FL/NIGHT button to toggle the light sensor function. "L:ON" indicates the light sensor is active, and "L:OFF" indicates it is off. When active, the pump's intensity may decrease in low light conditions to simulate natural nocturnal environments.

Master and Slave Control (for multiple units)

If you are using multiple UPETTOOLS wave makers, you can synchronize their operation:

  • To set a unit as the master, press the WI-FI/FEED button until the display shows "Wi:M".
  • To set a unit as a slave, press the WI-FI/FEED button until the display shows "Wi:F". Slave units will follow the master unit's settings.
  • To operate a unit individually, press the WI-FI/FEED button until the display shows "Wi:N".
