Trouble Shooting
Q. Alarm unit cannot detect underwater wave signal
Check the unit by hitting the TEST button. If the unit does not
give any beep, replace the 9V battery with a new one.
Check the phone jack connection between the sensor tube and
the alarm unit control head. Make sure it is connected properly.
Check the sensitivity setting on the bottom of the underwater
sensor and the depth of the sensor into the water.
Q. The alarm unit gives frequent false alarms
Check the unit installation. Make sure it is mounted rigidly and
straight upright. If the unit can be moved sidewise under strong
wind, it indicates the unit is not mounted rigidly.
Check the sensitivity setting. The sensitivity may be set too
high.
The sensor can detect any water disturbance including the flow
from the filter pump. Place the alarm unit away from the return,
or put a deflector cap on the sensor cage.
Q. The poolside alarm unit siren cannot be turned OFF
Push and hold BOTH the green button and yellow button for 3
seconds until you hear 5 consecutive beeps.
Wait until the water settles down before you turn on the unit
again.
Q. Pool alarm sounds off when I use my pool cleaner
Your pool cleaner can create the same type of water disturbance
as that created by a child falling into water. Therefore the pool
alarm will be set off if you activate your automatic pool cleaner
while the alarm is ON.
