Wiring Diagram

Pump: brown wire(+),blue wire(-)

Connect the pump to the EcoDuino Control Board's motor terminal

Sample Code

void setup() {
  pinMode(5, OUTPUT);
  pinMode(6, OUTPUT);

  digitalWrite(5, LOW);
  digitalWrite(6, LOW);
}

void loop() {
  pumpOn();
  delay(1000);
  pumpOff();
  delay(1000);
}
//open pump
void pumpOn()
{
  digitalWrite(5, HIGH);
  digitalWrite(6, HIGH);
}
//close pump
void pumpOff()
{
  digitalWrite(5, LOW);
  digitalWrite(6, LOW);
}

Result

The Immersible Pump turns on for 1 second and off for 1 second repeatedly.
