Xf250 advanced controller LCD replacement

User · Apr 25, 2021

Hi guys

had a pair of xf250’s and the advanced controller for around 3 years, been working great. I recently moved my system, and when I powered up the gyres last night, the left half of the lcd in the controller is dead. Barely visible. Doesn’t affect function other than making it impossible to see what the settings are

Are there any replacement/ repair options for the lcd? Thanks

Support offered me 20% off a new controller, which is great.

but I’m hesitant to buy a new controller for a discontinued series of pumps, if it isn’t compatible with the 300 series.

if I buy a 300 series controller, is it compatible with the 2 xf250 gyres I already have? That way, I can also future proof my upgrade path when I get my bigger tank next year (350gallon)

thanks

After more reading, I think I’ll hold off on a controller purchase until my current one fails completely, then upgrade to the WaveEngine for the extra functionality and compatibility.

thanks!

I've been able to procure replacement LCDs for the XF230/250 Gyre controllers. These are for the classic version where the LCDs would go bad. Reach out if you've got interest.

I was able to make the new cloud controller work with my old XF250 Gyres…

Can you still procure these? Mine just quit.
