THERMOSTAT OPERATION - ADVANCED FLAME TECHNOLOGY (AFT) BOARD

PROGRAM BUTTON

LCD Display

Temp Buttons

Mode Button

The pool heater touchpad, located on the upper front panel

of the heater, allows the user to select either POOL or SPA

operation, and to adjust the setpoint temperature.  The LCD

display window indicates the mode (OFF, SPA, POOL) and

the actual water temperature.  A manual power switch pro-

vided below the touchpad turns the control power ON or

OFF. 

Mode Button

The MODE button is used to select either POOL or SPA op-

eration.  It also allows the user to turn the heater off elec-

tronically, allowing the LCD display to remain energized and

to continue showing the actual water temperature.

Temp Buttons

If the heater is in POOL or SPA mode, the desired water tem-

perature (SETPOINT) will also be displayed and may be ad-

justed using the UP or DOWN buttons.  

Operation

In the POOL or SPA modes, the actual water temperature is

displayed along with the desired water temperature (SET-

POINT). When the water temperature is above the setpoint,

“Water Temp” will alternate with “No Demand.”  When the

water temperature is below the setpoint and the heater is fir-

ing, “Water Temp” will alternate with “Heating.”

To adjust the setpoint temperature, make sure the control is

in the appropriate mode (POOL or SPA) and push the UP or

DOWN buttons. 

Service Menu and Fault History

To  access  the  Service  Menu and fault history, press the

MODE and UP buttons simultaneously for 3 to 5 seconds.

The heater will continue to operate normally while in the

Service  Menu.    The  first  screen  displayed  is  the  Flame

Strength indicator, which indicates the pilot flame current

ALTERNATING DISPLAYS DURING HEATING

FLAME STRENGTH INDICATOR

SUPPLY VOLTAGE INDICATOR

RUN TIME INDICATOR

Press the DOWN button.  The Supply Voltage screen indi-

cates the voltage supplied to the control board.  Normal read-

ings range from 24 to 29 volts.

Press the DOWN button.  The Run Time indicates the total

hours of operation for the pool heater, as measured by the

amount of time that the main gas valve has been powered.

The Cycle count indicates the number of on/off cycles of the

heater, as measured by the number of times the pilot valve

has been powered.

using a bar graph and numerical display.  A signal of less

than 4 indicates a weak flame signal and may require serv-

ice.    Refer  to  Section  5  –  Troubleshooting  for  possible

causes and corrections.

FAULT HISTORY

Press the DOWN button.  The Fault History can display up

to ten faults in memory.  The order of the faults begins with

“Fault Last,” which is the most recent fault, and proceeds

through ten most recent messages in chronological order.

The second line of the display shows the fault message.  If

there are no faults in the history buffer, the second line reads

“All Faults Clear.”
