SPA - CONTROLS: MODE – READY AND REST

DO NOT DIVE.
In order for the spa to heat, a pump needs to circulate water through the heater. The pump
that performs this function is known as the “heater pump.”
The heater pump can be either a 2-Speed Pump 1 or a circulation pump.
If the heater pump is a 2-Speed Pump 1, READY Mode will circulate water every 1/2 hour,
using Pump 1 Low, in order to maintain a constant water temperature, heat as needed, and
refresh the temperature display. This is known as “polling.”
REST Mode will only allow heating during programmed filter cycles. Since polling does not
occur, the temperature display may not show a current temperature until the heater pump
has been running for a minute or two.
If the spa is configured for 24HR circulation, the heater pump generally runs continuously.
Since the heater pump is always running, the spa will maintain set temperature and heat as
needed in Ready Mode, without polling.
In Rest Mode, the spa will only heat to set temperature during programmed filter times, even
though the water is being filtered constantly when in Circulation Mode.
READY-IN-REST MODE
READY/REST appears in the display if the spa is in Rest Mode and jet 1 is pressed. It is
assumed that the spa is being used and will heat to set temperature. While Pump 1 High can
be turned on and off, Pump 1 Low will run until set temperature is reached, or 1 hour has
passed. After 1 hour, the System will revert to Rest Mode. This mode can also be reset by
entering the Mode Menu and changing the Mode.

REST
READY Mode will allow the spa to Poll and determine a need for heat. The panel will maintain a “current” temperature display.
REST Mode will not Poll and will only heat during filter cycles. The panel will not display a current temperature at all times.
The Main Screen will display RUN PUMP FOR TEMP if the filtration pump has not run for over 1 hour.
The Main Screen will display normally during Filter Cycles or when the spa is in use.
If the filtration pump has been off for an hour or more, when any function button, EXCEPT Light, is pressed on the panel,
the pump used in conjuncton with the heater will run so that temperature can be sensed and displayed.
