VII. Operation
The controller will only operate during the filtration cycle.
A. Setting Feed and Delay Times
1.
The controller is preset at the factory with the following feed
and delay times:
Pool Setting: Feed = 1 minute, Delay = 30 second
Spa Setting: Feed = 10 seconds, Delay = 30 seconds
These settings can be adjusted as needed to maintain the
pool balance. To modify the factory settings see Pre-
Installation, section B.
2.
Delays are built into the system to prevent the feeder from
oversanitizing the pool. Once the feeder has dispensed a
dose of sanitizer, the feeder is unable to dispense again for
either 30 seconds or seven minutes. This delay allows the
sanitizer to be circulated through the pool or spa and
returned through the filtration system where the sensors can
test the sanitizer level. After the delay period, another dose
of sanitizer will be dispensed if needed.
B. Feed Light Activation
1.
The yellow feed light (Figure 4, #4) flashes to indicate that
the feeder is active and sanitizer is being dispensed. During
feed delays, although no sanitizer is being dispensed. the
feeder is still technically active, so the feed light remains
constantly lit.
2.
Do not adjust the set knob while the feed light is on. When
the feed light is on, the lights on the light bar array may
register an inaccurate sanitizer level since the system is still
circulating a dose of sanitizer.
