The Settings Screen
Programming, Etc.
The Settings Screen is where all programming and other spa behaviours are controlled.
This screen has several features that can be acted on directly. These features may include Temp Range,
Heat Mode, Hold, and Invert Panel. When one of these items is selected, it will toggle between two settings.
All other menu items (with an arrow pointing to the right) go to another level in the menu.
Dual Temperature Ranges (High vs. Low)
This system incorporates two temperature range settings with independent set temperatures. The specific
range can be selected on the Settings screen and is visible on the Main Screen in the upper right corner
of the display.
These ranges can be used for various reason
s, with a common use being a “ready to use” setting vs. a
“vacation” setting. Each range maintains its own set temperature as programmed by the user. This way,
when a range is chosen, the spa will heat to the set temperature associated with that range.
High Range can be set between 80°F and 104°F.
Low Range can be set between 50°F and 99°F.
More specific Temp Ranges may be determined by the Manufacturer.
Freeze Protection is active in either range.
Heat Mode
– Ready vs. Rest
In order for the spa to heat, a pump needs to circulate water through the heater. The pump that performs
this function is known as the “heater pump.”
The heater pump can be either a 2-speed pump (Pump 1) or a circulation pump.
If the heater pump is a 2-Speed Pump 1, Ready Mode will circulate water every 1/2 hour, using Pump 1
Low, in order to maintain a constant water temperature, heat as needed, and refresh the temperature
display. This is known as “polling.” Rest Mode will only allow heating during programmed filter cycles. Since
polling does not occur, the temperature display may not show a current temperature until the heater pump
has been running for a minute or two.
When the heater pump has come on automatically (for example for heating) you can switch between low
speed and high speed but you cannot turn the heater pump off.
Circulation Mode (See Page 11, under Pumps, for other circulation modes)
If the spa is configured for 24HR circulation, the heater pump generally runs continuously. Since the heater
pump is always running, the spa will maintain set temperature and heat as needed in Ready Mode, without
polling.
In Rest Mode, the spa will only heat to set temperature during programmed filter times, even though the
water is being filtered constantly when in 24HR circulation mode.
