TROUBLESHOOTING

Power Disruption 

The AQ252’s system and thermostat (zone settings) 
parameters are stored in non-volatile memory and are 
updated as they change. 

When a power disruption or loss of power occurs, the 
system configuration is retained in memory. 

When power is restored, the AQ252 Control Panel enters 
auto-detection mode, reads its previously-stored settings, 
and initializes all AQUATROL network components 
according to their saved parameters.

POWER DISRUPTION GREATER THAN 4 HOURS

If a power disruption lasts for more than 4 hours, the 
AQ252 will have discharged its internal super capacitor, 
and the DATE and TIME OF DAY settings will need to be 
reset.

Upon restart, the AQ252 displays its clock settings as: 
YEAR = 2008, MONTH = JAN, DATE = 1. The message PLS 
SET DAY/TIME displays. This displayed message 
continues until the DATE and TIME OF DAY are updated.

NOTE:

If the power failure parameter is set to Backlight 
(USER MENU > PREFERENCES/TIME), the LCD 
backlight flashes repeatedly, along with the mes-
sage.

The AQ252 remains permanently in OCCUPIED (or 
Comfort) mode until the DAY and TIME OF DAY are 
updated.
