Filtration Purge
When the Purge Setting is turned on, the control will automatically purge
the plumbing of whatever components the system is programmed to
operate (on low speed where applicable) for 30 seconds each, starting a
minute after the beginning of each cycle. This serves to push any water
currently in those components’ plumbing back into the main body of water
for circulation and
fi
ltration.
Temperature Scale
The T8 topside can display the temperature in either Fahrenheit (‘F’) or
Celsius (‘C’). The factory default setting is Fahrenheit, and can be changed
by pressing ‘Temp-Up’.
Time Display
By factory default, Time Display is set to ‘ON’. This means that during
normal operation the display will
fl
ash between the current time, and the
current temperature. Turning this setting ‘OFF’ will make it so that the
display just shows the current temperature during normal operation.
Buzzer (Beep on Keypress)
By default the T8 topside will sound an internal buzzer when a button press
is registered. Simply toggle this code off (‘boF’) to disable the buzzer.
Temp/Settings Lock
The T8-S / T8-X topside can be set to lock the set temperature (‘TEMP’),
the user settings menu (‘MENU’), both the set temperature and the user
settings menu (‘BOTH’), or nothing at all (‘OFF’). The factory default is that
the lock is ‘OFF’. See the next page for more on how these locks operate.
