12.2 - Switching the Pump On and Off
When the pump is powered for the first time, it operates with the factory
default setting in Constant Pressure mode equal to 33ft of head.
The pump requires dry contact to run and comes with a jumper across
the ENABLE INPUT (J4) contacts found on the Control Panel UI. The
pump will run when connected to a power source when the jumper is con-
nected. Turning the pump on/off remotely is accomplished by accessing
the ENABLE INPUT (J4) contacts on the UI control board located under
the UI and connecting the contacts to an external relay. Access is gained
by removing the 4 screws located in each of the UI panel’s four corners.
Note: After powering up, wait 5 minutes before powering off.

[^] Select Mode Button
Short press:
Change Mode
• Scrolling through operational modes upwards. Current operation-
al mode LED blinking. To accept the new mode press the Set
Mode button.
Long Press (10 seconds) –
LOCKOUT
• Pressing and holding the [O] Set Mode Button for 10 seconds
activates or deactivates pump LOCKOUT. In LOCKOUT, the cur-
rently selected mode is active only. No changes can be made
while in LOCKOUT. LOCKOUT activation or deactivation is ac-
knowledged by all LED’s blinking on and off once, and returns to
display current operating mode.
[^] Select Mode [O] Set Mode Button
Long press (3 seconds):
2-Pump Operation
• To select or deselect 2-pump (lead/lag) operation.
13.1 - Pump Modes, 0-10Vdc and Parallel Pump Operation
The pump can operate in 10 different modes. Set the pump in the most
appropriate mode depending on the system where the pump operates.
The pump modes are:
Constant Pressure:
4 settings
50ft, 33ft, 22ft, 12ft (Changes impeller speed to maintain pressure
as flow increases)
• The pump maintains the selected pressure from 0 flow to
maximum power. At maximum power the pressure begins
to drop with increasing flow.
Constant Speed:
3
settings
27ft, 20ft, 13ft (Maintains speed at selected head at 0 flow)
• In Constant Speed mode the impeller speed is maintained
through the entire range of flow.
Proportional Pressure/ Automatic Mode:
1 setting (Increases impeller
speed to increase differential head as flow increases)
• In proportional pressure/ automatic mode the pump sets the operating
pressure depending on the system resistance.
• The parameters are preset and cannot be changed.
0 – 10VDC:
• In this mode, all automatic curves are deactivated for full control via
an external signal. A dry contact from the external source is used to
activate or deactivate the pump. Pump speed is controlled via a 0-10V
DC signal. Loss of the 0-10V DC signal defaults pump to 50% of full
speed. The 0-10V DC output signal is a linear relationship between
speed and V DC regardless of the selected mode. 1-3 VDC is minimum
speed, 10 V DC is maximum speed, 6.5 V DC is medium speed etc.
• 0-10V DC operation is unavailable in 2 pump mode.
To switch between modes (except 2-Pump Operation) depress the
[^] Select Mode
button for 1 second. The selected mode LED will begin
blinking. Continue pressing the
[^] Select Mode
button to scroll through
the available modes indicated by the mode’s blinking LED. Press the
[O] Set Mode
button to accept the desired operating mode.
2-Pump Operation:
1 setting
• This option is selected when 2-pump alternation is desired.
• Pumps will alternate run-time every 24 hours (not adjustable).
• In this mode the lead pump will control the operation of the lag pump.
1. Set both pumps to the same Mode
2. Turn main power off to both pumps
3. Connect Primary Pump “P1” relay output common and NC to
“P2” Enable Input (see 21.1 - Connection Examples Parallel
Pump Operation).
NOTE:
Remove factory installed jumper
from “P2” Enable Input
4. Connect “P2” 0 – 10VDC Output to “P1” 0-10VDC Input, positive
to positive and negative to negative
5.
NOTE:
Between pumps standard 18ga unshielded
communication wire is sufficient
To activate or deactivate 2-Pump Operation, press the
[^] Select Mode
button
+ [O] Set Mode
button together and hold for 3 seconds. The
2-Pump Operation LED will light indicating 2-Pump Operation activation.
The LED will go out upon deactivation. Only the master pump should be
set to 2-pump operation.
Once in 2-Pump operation, press the SELECT MODE button and the
SET MODE button together for 1 second to switch the running pump.
f. Connect the black wire of the pump
to the “Hot/ Live” wire of the
system. Typically black, or red
wire if no black wire is present.
When no black wire is present,
a red wire is a secondary live
wire found in some 220/1 circuits.
Connect the white wire of the
pump to the white or gray neutral
wire of the system. The green
ground wire is connected to
the grounding terminal inside
the pump electrical box.
See figure 2 noted to the left.
