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 temper-
ature. A manual power switch provided turns the con-
trol power ON or OFF.
Mode Button
The MODE button is used to select either POOL or
SPA operation. It also allows the user to turn the
heater off electronically, 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 temperature (SETPOINT) will also be displayed
and may be adjusted using the UP or DOWN buttons.
Operation
In the POOL or SPA modes, the actual water temper-
ature is displayed along with the desired water temper-
ature (SETPOINT). 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 firing, “Water Temp” will
alternate with “Heating.”
To adjust the setpoint temperature, make sure the con-
trol is in the appropriate mode (POOL or SPA) and
push the UP or DOWN buttons.
