Moov AI Pumps
Electrically the AI is the same as the VSP — one seven-pin connector, four digital inputs, a Modbus pair. What differs is the behaviour behind a speed command, because these pumps re-learn their own flow range.
The connection is identical to the VSP
| Pin | Colour | Function | iSmart Module |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Red | Digital Input 4 | Dry contact, if used |
| 2 | Black | Digital Input 3 | Dry contact, if used |
| 3 | White | Digital Input 2 | Dry contact, if used |
| 4 | Grey | Digital Input 1 | Dry contact, if used |
| 5 | Yellow | Digital ground (COM) | Common side of those contacts |
| 6 | Green | RS485-A | PORT terminal A |
| 7 | Brown | RS485-B | PORT terminal B |
| Input | Colour | Effect while closed to COM |
|---|---|---|
| Digital Input 1 | Grey | Pump forced to stop |
| Digital Input 2 | White | Run at 100% |
| Digital Input 3 | Black | Run at 80% |
| Digital Input 4 | Red | Run at 40% |
What is different about the AI
- Self-priming can be exited by hand at the pump, which helps during commissioning.
- With it disabled, a manual self-prime can still be triggered at the pump if the basket has drained after a long idle period.
- After a self-prime the pump redefines its adjustable flow range, so the meaning of a given speed request can shift.
When it does not respond
| Symptom | Where to look first |
|---|---|
| Ignores commands for the first half hour | Self-priming still enabled. |
| Modbus commands ignored entirely | A digital input is closed to common. |
| No communication | Swap green and brown, then check the serial settings. |
| Same request gives a different flow than last month | A self-learning cycle has redefined the range. Expected behaviour on this range. |
