Does anyone now if the EVQ225 has any automation options? It looks like a perfect VS motor upgrade for my SHPM2.0. However I only have an older Jandy PDA P4 with v3.0 firmware. It does not directly support VS motors. Before they discontinued the VGreen 27, my plan was to run the pump 23.75 hrs/day on a low speed then use a relay schedule in the evenings to run full speed and turn on the waterfalls. The discontinued VGreen automation adapter was perfect for this.

If you're a tinkerer you could buy a cheap RS-485 USB adapter and see if you can issue commands to it using the method described below.
