Interface for Automation System Controllers
1.
Turn on power to the LM3 and pump via the controller.
2.
Press the SERVICE button (hidden above the “3” in LM3)
down for at least 20 seconds while observing the green
SUPER CHLORINATE light. The LED will flash
momentarily, either 1, 2 or 3 times, then go out for
approximately 5 seconds.
3. Continue to hold down the SERVICE button until the correct
number of flashes for the controller being used is observed.
Then release the button.

A software connection should have been made. To verify a valid connection, observe the menu screen of
the controller being used. If the chlorinator does not appear to have made a connection, try resetting both
the LM3 and the controller.
When connected to one of these controllers the LM3 behaves as a “drone”, responding only to the
controller, so none of the buttons on the LM3 will function.
If the communication link between the controller and the LM3 is lost, the LM3 will continue operation as it
was before the controller lost connection. It will behave as a “stand alone” unit until the controller is
reconnected or the user changes the settings.
Check Salt / No Flow Warnings to Controllers
When a low salt or no flow condition occurs, the LM3 sends a message to the controller and the controller
signals the user to check for the condition as indicated below.

Low Salt
The CHECK SALT indicator light on the LM3
power pack is illuminated:
Polaris Eos: flashes the error code "‘Check
Chlorinator" on the screen, and
displays a salt level of 2900 ppm..
Jandy Aqualink RS (REV K): displays a salt
level of 2900 ppm.
Jandy Aqualink RS (REV L): displays a salt
level of 2900 ppm, as well as a LOW SALT
warning message.
Pentair IntelliTouch: displays a salt level of
2900 ppm and a LOW SALT warning message
Always test the salt level in the pool before adding
salt as water temperature or scaling of the cell can
cause the CHECK SALT light to illuminate.
No Flow
The red NO FLOW indicator light on the LM3
will illuminate:
Polaris Eos: flashes “Check Chlorinator”
and displays a 0 ppm salt level.
Jandy Aqualink RS (REV K): displays a
salt level of 0 ppm.
Jandy Aqualink RS (REV L): displays
“No Flow”
Pentair IntelliTouch: displays “Check
Flow/PCB”
