Menu/back button (Power On - Wireless Controller):
Use this button to access, save and exit from a
current menu or sub-menu settings. Also, while in a menu or sub-menu items, use this button to go back
to a previous menu level or item. If no menu activity is detected after five minutes, the main screen is
displayed. All menu settings are permanently saved and retained in the control panel even after power is
removed from the control panel. Control panel buttons are disabled while in the menu mode.
Right button:
When in pool or spa mode use the Left and Right button to adjust the temperature level.
Press the Right button to raise the set point water temperature. Press the Filter Pump (F) button to
display the current water temperature. Use the Right button to select a sub-menu item for editing. After
pressing the Menu button to access the main menu items, use the Right button to select the menu item
and access the sub-menu items for adjustment. While editing a settings, press and hold the Right button
to fast forward through settings and values.
Filter Pump (F) button/LED:
Switches a single speed filter pump on and off in “Pool” or “Spa” mode.
Press the Valves (V) button to toggle between “Pool” and “Spa” mode and rotate valves. If “Heater” is
enabled in the “Heat” menu (see page 30), pressing the Filter Pump button will also enable the selected
heat source (Heater/Solar LED on). The default time before the filter pump will switch off is 12 hours.
This button operates in “Auto” or “Service” mode.
Single-Speed Filter Pump:
If the pump is currently off, press the Filter Pump button (LED on) to
switch the pump on. Press the Filter Pump button again to switch the pump off. However, if the heater
is operating, and a delay is enabled for valves, this allows the heater to cool down (heater cool-down),
then when you press the F button to switch off the pump, only the heater will turn off, then the filter
pump will automatically switch off after 10 minutes to allow the heater to cool down. Pentair Water Pool
and Spa heaters do not require a cool down time. To override the “heater cool-down,” press the Filter
Pump button again to switch off the pump.
Two-Speed Filter Pump:
Press the Filter Pump button (LED on) to switch the two-speed pump on in
high speed. If you switch the pump off to low speed shortly after switching it to high speed, the filter
pump will automatically remain in high speed for a few minutes before switching back to low speed to
allow the pump to prime and establish normal water flow. In order to use the “2-Speed Pump” menu
assignments (see page 47), the 2-Speed relay option must be installed in the EasyTouch PL4/PSL4
Control System Power Center.
Freeze Protection:
This function protects the pool, plumbing, and equipment against freeze damage. If
the outside air temperature sensor falls below 36° F, “Freeze Protection” is activated and the Filter Pump
relay is switched on to circulate the pool water. To enable freeze protection for a circuit, see Settings
Menu: Circuit Function, on page 44.
Mode button:
Use this button for service purposes to manually control the EasyTouch PL4/PSL4
Control System. Press this button once activate “Service” mode, to allow AUX circuit buttons, Filter
Pump, Valves, Heater and Solar buttons to be operated manually. Press the button a second time to
enable “Timeout” mode. This mode is similar to “Service” mode except that the system will automatically
return to normal operation (Auto) after three hours. Press the button a third time to return the system
to “AUTO” mode. The current operating status is shown in the LCD display. The menu buttons, remote
controllers, and menu scheduled operations are disabled (except for switching off equipment manually
for emergencies) while the system is in “Service” mode.
Auto:
In Auto
(automatic) mode the system is in normal operating mode and is controlled by the main
control panel LCD menu features.
Service:
Use this mode to service pool equipment and to operate equipment manually.
Timeout:
Same functionality as “Service” mode, except that the system will automatically return to
normal operation (Auto) after three hours.
