Indicator Lights
A. AC ON:
If your Lectranator is wired properly, this indicator will display GREEN whenever the main filter pump is operating. This
indicator ensures that proper incoming AC power is being delivered to the Control Panel. Further, this indicator will display dark whenever the
main filter pump is switched off or power is interrupted. A flashing AC ON light in an indication that either the control panel has failed or that the
system has operated without water flow for 40 minutes or longer.
B. CELL ON:
This indicator will display GREEN whenever the Control Panel is energizing the Cell. While this indicator displays GREEN, rest assured that
your pool is being sanitized with 100% Pure Sodium Hypochlorite (Liquid Chlorine). Except for the OFF position, each time the incoming AC
power is interrupted and then restored to the Control Panel, this indicator will display GREEN for the first 30 minutes of continuous operation
regardless of the Output Control Dial setting. This is a normal START-UP CYCLE whenever the unit is reset by a power interruption. The
Output Control Dial regulates the amount of time the Control Panel switches on and off to energize the Cell. During rest mode this indicator will
display dark.
C. SERVICE:
Normally, this indicator will display dark. This indicator will display RED whenever an abnormal activity exists within the system. If a RED indi-
cator persists, please refer to #8 of the Trouble Shooting Guide on page 16 for further assistance, as one or more of the following conditions
may exist:
a) Low salt level,
b) Very cold pool/spa water (below 13°C/55°F),
c) Cell plugged with debris or scale deposits
d) DC plug is not pushed tightly onto cell terminals,
e) Failing cell, or,
f) Blown fuse.
D. FLOW DETECTOR:
Normally, this indicator will display dark. This indicator will display RED whenever insufficient flow is present. Typically, the flow rate drops
below 20 US Gallons/min. (75Liters/Min.). Further, if this indicator is displaying RED, the GREEN CELL ON indicator will display dark. If a
RED indicator persists, please refer to #9 of the Trouble Shooting Guide for further assistance, as one or more of the following conditions may
exist:
a) Flow detector plugged or jammed open with debris, b)Corroded microswitch, c) Flow rate is below 20 US Gallons/min. (80 Liters/Min.)
d) Defective flow detector,
e) Control panel not electrically interconnected with pump.
To turn off flow detector light:
1) Turn AC power off (turn pump off), 2) Correct problem (see troubleshooting),
3) Wait 30 seconds to allow panel to reset.
4) Restart system.
Output Dial
This is a percentage timer that regulates the amount of time the system is to produce chlorine/bromine during the filter pump
running cycle. The output is regulated according to the setting of this dial. Each setting has a memory cycle of 22 minutes. The setting of the dial will
determine how long the cell will produce chlorine/bromine and how long it will be in the rest mode. While in the rest mode your cell light will be off to
indicate that no chlorine/bromine is being produced. Below is a chart that indicates the on and off periods of each output setting.
NOTE: Any interruption of power, will cause the current memory cycle to reset itself, when power is restored.
