5. Setup
- Mounting the Pump: Position the wave maker pump unit inside your aquarium. Use the strong magnetic base to secure it to the aquarium glass. Ensure the pump is fully submerged and positioned to create the desired water flow pattern.
- Controller Placement: Install the control box in a waterproof location, away from direct water splashes. It is crucial to keep the controller dry to prevent damage.
- Power Connection: Connect the wave maker pump to the controller, and then connect the controller to the power adapter. The power adapter reduces 220V voltage to a safe 12V/24V low voltage, preventing the risk of electric leakage and ensuring the safety of your aquatic animals.
- Plug Adapter: Use the appropriate complimentary plug adapter for your region (EU, US, UK, GER, AU, CH PLUG) with the power adapter.
6. Operation
6.1 Control Methods
- Manual Control (EOW-3/5/9/16/22 models): Use the LCD panel on the controller for frequency conversion adjustment.
- WIFI App Control (EOW-3M/5M/9M/16M/22M models): Download the 'Jebao Aqua' app from your mobile app store. The app allows for comprehensive remote control and personalized settings.
6.2 Wave Making Modes
The wave maker offers five distinct wave making modes to simulate various natural water flows:
- M1: Classic Pulse Mode

- M3: Random Wave Mode
- M4: Constant Current Wave Making Mode
- M5: Classical Circulation Mode
6.3 Feeding Function
Activate the feeding function to temporarily pause wave generation, allowing fish to feed undisturbed.
6.4 Auto Frequency Control
For advanced setups, multiple EOW wave makers can be linked wirelessly via the app. A single mobile phone can support up to 32 different devices, allowing for synchronized and complex wave patterns.
