POOL PUMP TIMER
SETTING THE INBUILT POOL PUMP TIMER
The unit’s built-in pump timer is factory set to two ON TIMES each day. If the built-in pump
timer is not to be used (because an external pump timer is used), the built-in pump timer
must be permanently turned off. (Refer below) If it is decided to turn off the automatic pool
pump timer and use the manual switching of the pool pump on a daily basis, this may result
in unbalanced pool water that is not safe for swimming. If necessary, obtain advice from a
qualified pool maintenance technician.
TO TURN OFF THE INBUILT POOL PUMP TIMER
It can be switched off as follows: -
Press the
•
ENTER
keypad No. 4 to display
MAIN MENU.
Select flashing word
•
TIMER
by pressing
the ENTER
keypad.
Keeping in
•
PROG 1
and using keypad No. 6, move the flashing symbol to the right and
advance all the numbers to zeros by pressing
ENTER
as many times as required.
Return to normal display by pressing the
•
ESC
keypad several times.
IF THE INBUILT POOL PUMP TIMER IS DISABLED
If the in-built timer is disabled, the Chemigem will lose the ability to turn the pool pump
on manually with the “
PUMP
” keypad. To turn the pool pump and the Chemigem on or off
manually, it will be necessary to use the mains power switch.
To reinstate the inbuilt pool pump timer set
“AUTOMATIC” PUMP TIMES
(Refer to page 23)
MANUAL STARTING OF THE INBUILT POOL PUMP TIMER
It is likely that the pool water balance will fluctuate during any period when the pool pump is
manually started and stopped, for it may be that the pool pump will not be running on a regular
basis for the required times.
During this period it is strongly advisable to regularly check on the pool water with a
good quality test kit.
To turn the Chemigem on when the timers are already programmed and functional, but when it
is not in a pumping cycle, press the keypad marked
PUMP
(keypad No.1). The first press will
bring the pool pump and the unit on for one hour.
Manual “
ON-TIMES
” is switched off by pressing the pump keypad once (goes to “
MANUAL
OFF
”) or twice (goes to “
AUTO
”).
Should a manual “
ON-TIME
” longer than 1 hour be required, proceed as follows: -
Press keypad No. 1 a few times until the screen message states that the pump is operating
•
under “
AUTOMATIC TIMER
”.
Press once more and hold down continuously (keypad No.1) until the required “
•
ON-TIME
”
in hours is displayed on the screen.
The Chemigem will then operate for that number of hours and when all manually set times
have expired the unit will automatically return to “
AUTOMATIC TIMER
” to switch on and off the
pool pump.
