8. Water Pump Energy Consumption Monitoring
The ATO system is always monitoring the energy being consumed by the DC pump.
When the ATO is powered up it goes into a training mode and starts learning the behavior of your water pump for about
a day or so. Once completed the alarm will sound with a beep every 5 seconds if the pump isn’t operating normally. At
this point the ATO will still continue to function until it completely shuts down when the pump completely dies however
this give you the opportunity to clean or replace the water pump before it does.
If you replace your water pump simply unplug the power to the ATO module and power back up again, this will start the
learning process over.
Note: The Alarm Delay doesn’t apply to this alarm, if an error is detected the alarm will sound immediately
