DISPOSAL OF ELECTRICAL AND ELECTRONIC PARTS
Pursuant to article 13 of Legislative Decree no. 151 dated 25h July 2005, ”Implementation
of Directives 2002/95/CE, 2002/96/CE and 2003/108/CE, related to the reduc-
tion in the use of hazardous compounds in electrical and electronic equipment
as well as waste disposal”.
The symbol of the crossed-out dustbin means that the product must be disposed of
separately from other waste at the end of its useful life.
The user must therefore hand it over to suitable recycling centres for electronic and
electro-technical waste, or to the retailer when buying a new equivalent piece of equip-
ment, on a one-to-one basis.
The differentiated collection of used equipment to be sent to a disposal centre for recy-
cling, treatment and disposal in an environment friendly manner helps to avoid negative
consequences for the environment and health and favours the recycling of the construc-
tional materials of the equipment.
If the user throws the product away illegally, he/she will be subject to the administrative
sanctions stated in Legislative Decree no. 22/1997” (article 50 and et seq of Legislative
Decree no. 22/1997).

Proceed as follows to connect the Koralia Wave Module to the Aquarium Controller
System correctly:
1) Connect the power supply lead (optional) to the dedicated socket at the back of the
device.
2) Connect the Koralia Wave Module to the Aquarium Controller System using the BUS
cable supplied in the package.
3) Fit the special ferrite accessory used to prevent electro-magnetic disturbance on
the cables of the Koralia pumps, as illustrated below.
4) Connect the Koralia pumps to be piloted to the dedicated sockets.
5) Switch the Koralia Wave Module on, by switching the ON/OFF switch at the back of
the device from position “0” (Off) to position “I” (On).
INITIALISATION PROCEDURE
Once the Koralia Wave Module has been switched on, the pumps connected to it start-
up quickly one after the other (P1..P2..P3 and P4) reaching their maximum power for
5 seconds each one, after which the corresponding rpm indicator LEDs of the pumps
switch on.
First-time connection of the Koralia Wave Module
PHASE 1: Open the
ferrite accessory us-
ing the special key
supplied.
PHASE 2: Wind the
cables of the Koralia
pumps twice around
the ferrite accesso-
ry, positioning it at a
maximum distance of
20 cm from the Koralia
Wave Module.

Programs
The denition of one or more programs using the Koralia
Wave Module allows you to set the operation of each
single pump compared to the others, so that they can
be coordinated and simulate wave and sea effects that
better suit the settings created in the aquarium.
The programs can be entered in different time bands or
overlapped in a same period of time involving different
groups of pumps to create more complex effects.
Proceed as follows to enter a program:
Main screen page Main menu Dimmer pumps
Programs Insert.
The program entry screen page appears, where you
need to dene the period of time in which the program
remains activated (box “From” - “To”) and the pumps
involved.
To enter the pumps included in the program, move using
the right/left arrow keys  and select “enter pump”
by pressing the “Enter” key.
The screen page appears in which you can choose on
which pump you wish to work and dene its operating
parameters (Fig.16). Use the right/left arrow keys 
to move within the screen page and the up/down arrow
keys  to change selection.

Added:• The pump starts to reach its maximum power as soon the previous pump has
reached its maximum power. The pump reaches the minimum power set when the
previous pump starts to slow down. You need to dene the minimum and maximum
power (points 3-4) and the Max. Time (point 6). The max. T must strictly be less than
that set for the previous pump.

You can set composite programs that involve different groups of pumps that work simultane-
ously or that allow the same pumps to work differently based on the time schedule.
An example of this type of application entails the use of three pumps positioned in three
corners of the tank where the two side pumps simulate a dimmered wave effect repeated
throughout the duration of the light period, while the third pump, situated in the centre,
increases its power progressively, reaching maximum power during the central light times
to then reduce their power again as the lights switch off, so that the wave intensity in the
water varies consequently.
