This Page is for historical reference. Some pumps had the ability to be controlled by directly communicating with them and seeting one of 4 speeds. However, all of these pumps can now be controlled directly from njsPC/Nixie just like a Pentair controller.
This page lists the messages that are sent by the pump. This application is built around systems that have a modern Pentair pool controller (EasyTouch, et al). ~~If you want to control the pumps directly, without the use of a pool controller, see this [CocoonTech thread](http://cocoontech.com/forums/topic/13548-intelliflow-pump-rs485-protocol) (registration required).~~ This application will now read all of the pump commands.
