ENGLISH

14. Operation information and troubleshooting

LED signals

Type of LED signal

Explanation

The two red LEDs come on with a steady light The unit is not calibrated - dosing is not possible

The two red LEDs flash alternately

Flow too high or too low – dosing shut off

All red and yellow LEDs flash at the same 

time

Time-Out function:

 

Dosing has taken place continuously for 90 mins – dosing shut off.

- Check dosing pump function and setting.

- Check that the chemical level in the drums is not too low.

- Check leakage/function of the dosing hoses, dosing points and dosing pumps.

- If the installation has a salt chlorinator: Check that the salt chlorinator is not

  shut off, that it is correctly set and that the signal cable between the chlori-

  nator and the MiniMaster is correctly connected.

Restart:

 First shut off the dosing (On/Off button E), wait a few seconds, 

then start dosing by pressing the On/Off button (E) again.

LED comes on with a steady light

lit for a long period - out for a shorter period

Dosing is activated, metering in progress

Flashing LED,

lit for a short period - out for a longer 

period

Dosing is not activated, but metering is in progress

Rolling LEDs

Forced dosing in progress

Chlorine unit only:

Flashing LEDs 3, 4, 5 after start sequence

Time-Out activated = dosing blocked after 90 minutes of continuous dosing, 

(factory set value)

Flashing LEDs 3, 4, 6 after start sequence

Time-Out deactivated (unlimited continuous dosing)

pH unit only:

Flashing LEDs 2, 4, 5 after start sequence

Alkali dosing activated

Flashing LEDs 2, 4, 6 after start sequence

Acid dosing activated

Troubleshooting

Type of fault

Action

Unit does not start

1. If the unit is interlocked over a shut down circulation pump, the unit will not 

start.

2. Check fuses on the circuit board.

Unstable/low flow in the fitting

Check/clean the pre-filter Clean and lubricate the adjuster screw on the fitting.

The unit cannot be calibrated

1. Low/high measurement water flow (chlorine unit only) - check filter.

2. Unreasonable measurement values; 

    free chlorine values < 0.3 ppm and > 3.0 ppm

    - check the chlorine values using photometric equipment

3. High levels of cyanuric acid in the pool water - check using photometric

    equipment.

    Dilute the pool water with tap water if necessary.

4. Electrode or connection fault - check connections, clean electrodes or

    replace them.

High and low values during operation

- calibrated value not stable.

Dosing set too high or too low. Adjust dosing based on pool volume and 

circulation speed.

Check that the water flow through the fitting is even.

Check the condition and connections of the electrodes.

Underpressure in return hose

Press the Flow button (F, see Figure 6), open the Adjuster Screw (H, see 

Figure 7) until the red LED (High) comes on. Then cut the flow using ball 

valve L2 (see Figure 1) carefully until the green LED (flow OK) comes on.
