Jandy pump and Aqualink problem

[findre]

I am having similar issue with a Jandy 2.7 epump and a Jandy 1.85 vsflopro. Running a Aqualink RS8. All pumps connected on breaker, no relay and only rs485.
When the 2.7 is turned on a any RPM, the VSflopro turns on to the same speed. Any adjustment changes both. I get the same Aquapure on off beeping when both pumps are on, when vsflopro is off by breaker, everything is happy. Controller is confused which pump is which. Can't use dip switches to differentiate pumps. What settings will address this in the RS8?

Interface: AquaLink Touch​

Model: RS-8 Combo​

AquaLink: REV T.2​

CPU p/n: B0029221​

What does this screen look like in your VSP pump setup?


Epump1 should be set up for Filtration and that will be associated with the filter/pump function.

Your second pump should be on a different address (lets say Epump2) on address 2 and assigned “Aux pump”, not “filtration”.

You either have both settings set to Filtration, or you have the DIP switch settings in the two motors set to address 1. In the RS setup, one pump must be labeled Filtration, and the other should be set to Aux pump.

Assuming the filtration pump is Epump1 then it’s DIP switches should be set to address 1. If the Aux pump is set to Epump2 then set it’s DIP switches to address 2. The number that follows the Epump name is the corresponding address of the pump it’s controlling

I totally agree regarding DIP switches, but CS said only use rs485. Yes, did the aux pump at first. lets try some DIP switching. Ill re-name pumps also
