Default DC pump mods for/with profilux

Well, after a brief discussion about this with Steve this morning, we figured it was time for a bit more DIY.
I will show first of all the mods done to the wp40, followed by the waveline pump(or in this case the attempt, but im pretty sure its all figured out already).
I am using a P3 for control, with the base of a EVG card.
With this, I have eliminated the need for the wp40 control and have complete control over the pumps with the profilux.
Hoping to do the same with the waveline DC pumps.
Please, keep the thread clean, I don't need it closed. Its here to be a help for everyone, I could also do this mod for the Apex as well.
Ill post it here at a later date.

Default Wp40

For those that have been following the wp40 thread, this is not anything new.
Just a re-post. But there are a lot of similarities between the two, so thought I would include it.

Default Same??

Just looking at it, Id say they are very close to comparison.
I have the WP40 completed and running, so a few things need to be figured out.
More to come. Again, please lets keep the thread a clean one.
Thanks for looking,
Bob

Default EVG card for profilux

Consider this board cut in half.
The right hand side-110v
The left hand side-low voltage.
Right hand side.-Power comes in, splits to feed both AC/DC adapters.
Upper left-to profilux
Lower left-1-10v signals(or in the case of wp40 1-5v)
