Main Screen: In “Solar Only” mode the main
screen display toggles between the current out-
side air temperature, and the actual and set wa-
ter temperature, and current solar status (SOL
ON/OFF). The system time also displays as
set in the “Time Set” menu. In order to display
the air temperature, an optional air sensor is
required. The air sensor is also used for freeze
protection. The filter pump and optional relay
must be connected to an external time clock for
freeze protection to work. The air sensor can
be enabled and disabled from the “Solar Only”
menu.
