The following describes how to adjust the heat temperature for the spa and pool water, schedule a daily run time for
the pool/spa filter pump and control lights.
Heating your Spa (manual control)
Heating the spa water on demand is easy, just press the
SPA button
to switch the heater on. The control
panel will display the current temperature setting. Heater” is displayed when the heater is active. The heater
is active when the set temperature is higher than the water temperature. The heater will switch off when the
water temperature rises above the set temperature. For more information about the spa manual heating “MAN
HEAT” feature, see page 51. Pressing the Spa button will switch the filter pump on and rotate the spa valve
actuator to isolate and circulate the spa water from the pool water.
Heating your Pool (manual control)
Heating the pool water is normally part of the daily scheduled program (see page 32). However, if you need
to adjust the pool water temperature, press the
Pool (P) button
to display the current temperature settings on
the
PL4/PLS4 Control System
Indoor Control Panel. “Heater” will be displayed on the screen when the heater is
active and a heat source has been selected in the Heat menu. The heater is active when the set temperature,
as specified in the Heat menu, is higher than the water temperature. For more information about selecting a
heat source and setting the pool water temperature setting, see page 30. Pressing the Pool button will switch
the filter pump on and rotate the pool valve actuator to isolate and circulate the pool water from the spa water.
Adjusting the water temperature setting
To adjust the set temperature setting for the pool or spa water, either use the
Left arrow button
to lower the
temperature setting or the
Right arrow button
to higher the temperature setting.
From the Schedules menu you can set the a start and stop time to automatically run pool and spa equipment
and control underwater and backyard lights. For example, the filter pump relay circuit can be scheduled to run
the daily pool and spa filtration at a specific time and day(s) of the week. Up to
4
total program
s
chedules may
be created for all relay circuits combined. The pool and spa circuits can also be scheduled to switch
on the heater to heat the pool or spa water up to the set point temperature as set in the “Heat” menu (see page
30). If the pool has a separate jet pump or blower controlled by AUX 1 and/or AUX 2 , these need to be
scheduled separately. For more information, see page 16.
