Red Sea ReefWave®

Operation with ReefBeat
The ReefWave will run automatically according to the 24-hour schedule
of customized waves that you have created. Grouped ReefWave units
will all work together with a common schedule but with their individual
flow intensities.
To enjoy all of the functionality that the ReefBeat system has to offer,
the ReefWave units should be connected to the internet at all times.
With an active internet connection, the ReefBeat homepage will show
all of the current settings of the ReefWave group or for each ungrouped
unit individually.
When in ReefBeat mode the Intensity & Direction indicator LEDs on the
controller will display the setting of the current wave according to the
schedule.
Activating any of the ReefBeat shortcuts or activating the On/Off
function from the Device Manager as described below will suspend the
active schedule and put the pump into a “no wave” state and switch
off all of the Intensity & Direction indicator LEDs on the controller.
Deactivating the function will return the pump to the schedule.
Pressing the Mode button on the controller will take the ReefWave
out of the ReefBeat mode and will implement whatever local wave
options will be selected. The ReefBeat homepage will indicate that the
specific unit is now in “Controller Mode”. ReefBeat Shortcuts will not be
implemented on this specific unit however ReefBeat will still receive
notifications as normal.
Pressing the Pause/Play button on the controller will take the ReefWave
out of the ReefBeat mode and will implement either the Feed or Pause
function. The ReefBeat homepage will indicate that the specific unit is
now in “Controller Mode”. ReefBeat Shortcuts will not be implemented on
this specific unit however ReefBeat will still receive notifications as normal.
Device Manager
The Device Manager is accessible from the Page menu in both the
ReefBeat homepage and the ReefWave Dashboard, and contains a
list of all of the Red Sea connected devices that are installed on each
aquarium. The devices are listed according to type and in the order in
which they were added to the aquarium. Tapping the 3-dot menu for
each device type opens a list of advanced functions such as firmware
updates that will be implemented on all devices of this type. Tapping the
3-dot menu for each device opens a list of advanced settings/functions
for each device individually.
Group / Ungroup status
The grouped/ungrouped status of each ReefWave is shown in the Device
Manager.
Up to 3 ReefWave units can be operated together as a group, a 4th
of more ReefWave units can be added to the aquarium however they
can only be operated as ungrouped individual units. The first ReefWave
connected to ReefBeat will automatically be set as grouped, even if it
remains the only member of the group. Subsequent units can be added
to the group and share a common schedule and basic wave settings.
An individual unit can be ungrouped or re-grouped at any time. When a
unit is ungrouped, it will maintain the same settings it had when it was
grouped until changes are made. Once added to a group, the previously
ungrouped unit will automatically get the settings of the group.
