Note:
Remember that the duration allowed for SPEED 3 will be limited to the remaining time in a
24 hour day. Any time in the 24 hour day not programmed into SPEEDs 1-3, the pump will remain
in a stationary state. [ SPEED 1 + SPEED 2 + SPEED 3 < 24 Hours ].
14.
Press the
Start/Stop
button and ensure the LED is lit. The pump is now on and will run the
custom user-programmed schedule.
Note:
If the pump has been stopped via the Start/ Stop button, the pump will not run until the
pump is turned back on by the Start/Stop button. If the Start/Stop LED is illuminated then the
pump is on and will run the programmed schedule.
Note:
If a user wants to have a period of time during the day when the pump is not running, any of
the SPEEDs can be programmed to 0 RPM. This will cause the pump to remain stationary/paused
throughout the duration of that SPEED.
Speed Priorities (Non-External Control)
For schedule duration settings, SPEEDs are prioritized as follows: SPEED 1 -> SPEED 2 -> SPEED 3.
SPEED 1 is the highest priority, while SPEED 3 is the lowest.
The drive will not allow a user to program a schedule of more than 24 hours. When the 24th hour of
duration is programmed it will take time from the lower priority speeds in order to add them to the
SPEED currently being adjusted.

Custom Schedules
To customize the run schedule for your WhisperFlo VS 1500 Variable Speed Pump, the pump must be
stopped. Be sure that the Start/Stop button LED is not illuminated.
Programming a Custom Schedule:
Note:
When programming, the LED light next to the parameter (“Speed”, “Time” and “Duration”) you
are setting will blink.
OPERATION
Example:
Starting Schedule (Before Adjustment)
SPEED 1 duration =
20 hours
SPEED 2 duration = 2 hours
SPEED 3 duration = 2 hours
If the user reprograms SPEED 1 to run for 23
hours, SPEED 2 (lower priority speed) will
automatically adjust to a 1 hour duration and
SPEED 3 (lowest priority speed) will adjust to a
0 hour duration.
End Schedule (After Adjustment)
SPEED 1 duration =
23 hours
SPEED 2 duration = 1 hour
SPEED 3 duration = 0 hours
