Hey guys. I have 2 x IceCap gyres hooked to my WaveEngine. All was well for months and months, but today i wanted to "up the speed" on them/adjust the percentage, yadda yadda. Now whatever i did, one of them is RUNNING IN REVERSE??? On both pumps on the Hydros App, I have both "allow reverse" and "invert rotation" switched to OFF.

HOW CAN THIS BE POSSIBLE? I don't even own the blades that you can use the reverse gyre mode thingie or whatever it's called. How is this happening? Can anyone help me? This is so weird? Thank you in advance.

The one that is running in reverse , turn on "Invert Rotation". Sometimes the motors are wound differently from the factory and the pump will run backwards when it's commanded in a forward direction. This is the purpose of the "invert rotation" button. You most likely just noticed it's direction when you increased the flow. :)
