Solarmatic Operating Instructions
1. Once installation is complete and all connections have been made,
turn the unit ON using the POWER button. The LED will illuminate
green when it is on.
2. To set the temperature, use the DISPLAY MODE (
D
) button to
select the SET function. Use the
5
6
buttons
to enter your desired
comfort temperature. Your setting will display briefly on the screen.
NOTE:
Once your swimming season is over we suggest you re-set
the SET temperature to 10°C as this will prevent the solar heating
system running unnecessarily in cold weather.
3. Using the SOLAR PUMP button, select AUTO to run the system in
automatic mode.
Operating Notes
The ROOF Sensor
The ROOF temperature reading is a combination of heating by the sun and
heating/cooling by the air/wind. It is essentially a reading that provides an
estimate of the amount of warmth available to heat the pool.
If the ‘daytime’ temperature is 25°C, the roof may vary from 25°C to 50°C. It is
possible for the overnight and early morning ROOF temperature reading to go
below 5
°
C. When this occurs the unit will register a false warning (
rr
) to check
the ROOF sensor – wait for the day to warm up before taking any action.
ECO Mode
This feature will reduce unnecessary pump operation and therefore reduce
operating costs. When this mode is ON, if the roof is not warm enough to
bring the pool temperature up significantly the solar pump will not run, as
the amount of heat to be collected is not worth the cost of the power used to
run the pump.
Without this feature ON a ROOF that is under 20
°
C will try to warm a pool
that is 12
°
C, using electrical power for very little pool heating.
ECO Mode - ON
Your controller should start in Eco Mode.
This mode stops the operation of the solar pump when the roof temp is
below 30
°
C or the roof is less than 6
°
C warmer than the pool.
To turn ECO Mode
ON
press the SET TEMP
5
6
buttons at the same time.
Eco Mode - OFF
With ECO Mode turned off, the solar pump can run when the roof reading
is just 20°C and the pool is only 2°C (or more warmer than the pool).
If your pool has a thermal blanket this mode may be able to provide extra
swimming time at an increased solar pump operation cost.
To turn ECO Mode
OFF
press the SET TEMP
5
6
buttons at the same time.
