    1 All electronic pumps of Tunze that are controllable are possible
    2 The pumps are connected to the 1-10V-interfaces of ProfiLux, so you need a free L-port.
    You need a ProfiLuxTunze1 (reacts to channel 1, 3, 5...) or ProfiLuxTunze 2 (reacts to channel 2, 4, 6...) cable for one pump.

    From Tunze manual :

    Turbelle® stream 6105, 6205 and 6305 are pumps
    with an electronic motor. Thus, they can be operated
    on any direct-current source (battery, solar cells)
    from 10 V to 24 V.

    The Turbelle® nanostream® 6055 has been fitted
    with an electronic motor. Thus, the pump can be
    operated on any direct-current source (battery,
    solar cells) from 10 V to 24 V.

    I have note found pumps to be powered with 1-10.

    Can anyone help me to make the right hardware choice/configuration ?

    You musn´t mix power source (which is done by the power supply[2] and rated 10-24V) and the control supply which is rated 1-10V
    Control line is comming from PL L-port and connected to the pump via [3] like a tunze single or multicontroller.
    In any case you need a GHL tunze cable #1 or #2 and - maybe- a y-splitter depending on which L-port you want to use

    [x] see drawings in the tunze manual

    On the one hand I am glad I found this bit of information but on the other I could just scream. :mad: Why would you not include this bit of information in the packages for Tunze 1 and 2? Would also be a great idea to include this information in your accessories page where the cables are shown. After a week of self doubt I have finally achieved "Permanent Opposite" Now on to the next project, installing a PLM-4L so I can get my other two Tunze pumps hooked up.
