Apex install (for beginners)

Wait, I'm a bit confused by this statement. Are you running a DC pump? If so, then I get it. But if you've got an AC pump, it's not going to provide you a "soft start". The only difference with outlets 4 & 8, are the type of relay the EB8 uses. 4 & 8 are mechanical relays, and therefore are better suited for high amperage, low number of on/off cycles. The other 6 outlets are triacs, and therefore are nearly immune to on/off cycles but are only good for 5A max each.

 

ok, thank you for the clarification. I had thought I read that the outlets 4 & 8 could provide this. I must have been mistaken.
