Controls and Display Panel
The rate at which your ECO-matic produces (sanitizer for your pool) varies (see below) and is indicated on the DIGITAL
DISPLAY (Eg: 90 – 100 or in winter mode 75 – 85).
There are two lights on the Control Panel – LED 1 and LED 2 – which will indicate whether the system is working as
intended or whether there may be faulty or damaging operating conditions (such as low salt levels). If these warnings are
ignored, the Unit will either
Cut-Out OR otherwise, continued operation will result in damage to the ‘Cell’.
Start Up
1. Turn the POWER ON (first time only). Power setting “1”. Switch filter pump ON. ECO-matic power switch can then
be left ON and filter power control will also control the ECO-matic.
2. The unit will enter a START-UP PHASE (which will repeat itself at the start of each filtration period). The STANDBY
light will be ON, but there will be no ‘Cell’ output (sanitizer production).
3. After the Start-Up delay, the DISPLAY should indicate around 90 – 105 (unless set in the Winter Mode). With the
correct amount of salt added and dissolved, both LED 1 and LED 2 will be GREEN. If LED 2 is RED, there is
insufficient salt in the pool.
See the table on the page 6 for other installation related problems.
Digital Display
The DIGITAL DISPLAY indicates how the ECO-matic is performing, compared to its maximum design output. 90(%) –
100(%) range is common. Normal Winter Mode readings 75 – 85.
