Infloor Cleaner
a) Configuring the infloor cleaner as an independent system allows it to be operated at any time
unless SPA mode is active.
b) Configuring the infloor cleaner as an integrated system means the filtration pump must be
running for 3 minutes prior to the operation of the infloor cleaner valve or the pump operation.
c) Configuring the infloor cleaner to be manually activated by a valve by pressing the infloor
cleaner button the control will activate the filtration pump and wait three minutes to prime itself,
the pump speed will automatically shift to its pre-programmed pump speed and then the valve
will be activated. The filtration pump will not turn off during rotation of the infloor cleaner valve
to ensure the pump holds its prime.
Lights Icon Home Screen
a) If lighting control is selected in configuring the system the “lights” icon will display on the home
screen.
Pool Spa Mode Selector Icon
b) The Pool / Spa mode icon is not operational on pool only or spa only systems.
c) Press the Pool / Spa icon to switch between pool, spa and spill over modes.
d) When changing between Pool, Spa and Pool/Spa modes there is a five second delay prior to the
system actioning the request.
e) If the filtration pump is running and the pool/spa mode is changed after a five second delay the
control will switch the filtration pump off.
f) If the system has a gas heater fitted the heater cool down period will deactivate the filter pump
after the cool down period is complete.
g) If spa mode is selected and the filtration pump is not activated the control will activate the
filtration pump.
h) If spa mode enables the heating option (default enabled) the control will enable solar and
conventional heating.
i) In Pool Mode Suction (valve 1 relay) and Return valve (valve 2 relay) will be directed to the pool.
j) In Spa mode Suction (valve 1 relay) and Return valve (valve 2 relay) will be directed to the spa.
k) In Pool and Spa mode Suction (valve 1 relay) valve will be directed to the pool and the return
valve (valve 2 relay) will be directed to the spa.
l) If Spa mode is enabled the cleaner functions of infloor and cleaner pump will be disabled.
Heating
a) In Spa mode the heating set temperature will be the spa temperature.
b) In Pool or Spill Over modes the heating set temperature will be the pool temperature.
Conventional Heating Operation Modes
a) If the system detects a faulty pool temperature probe conventional heating will be disabled.
b) If heater demand is enabled and a Heating timer has been programmed to turn Heating off- it
will not disable the conventional heating.
c) The operator may manually disable a conventional heater or heater demand.
d) If an operator switches the system to spa mode the chosen heating option is enabled.
e) Note- if this option is selected if a group function is activated and the spa mode option is
selected heating will start regardless of the group heating setting.
f) Demand Mode timer- Currently at the end of the heater demand timer, if the controller is not
within a filtration timer and no other interlocked functions are operating the controller will request
the filter pump to turn off which will disable heating. This feature is only available for integrated
systems.
g) If the filtration pump is turned back on outside the demand mode timer heating will recommence.
h) Heater enable/disable stop time is disabled during demand mode.
i) Demand mode will be disabled at the start or end of any group function - not available in a group
function.
j) Heater demand button will only be available during heater demand mode timer times.
Integrated Conventional Heating
a) The filtration pump must be running for three minutes to prime itself, before the heater is enabled.
b) If gas heating is selected the filter pump must run for 6 minutes after heater is disabled for heater
cool down.
c) Normally open contacts will be allocated for conventional heater activation.
d) If the filtration pump is turned off manually or timer off event happens, the controller will switch
the normally open Heater Contacts off and set the “Heating temp check delay” (for use only with
heater demand).
e) In a pool system with Solar and conventional heating with solar preference selected, solar
heating only will operate when there is solar gain.
f) If Heating Demand is enabled-the Heating temperature check delay is cleared.
g) The “Heating temperature check delay” is controlled by countdown timer.
h) If the filter pump has been operating for over three minutes, the flow switch closed for 20
seconds and the pool temperature is one 1
O
C less than the set temperature the heater option is
enabled.
i) If the heater is on, the filter pump has been running for over three minutes and the pool
temperature is +3
O
C greater than the set temperature, the heater control output will set the
“Heating temperature check delay” for the “Heating temperature check period”.
j) If the filter pump was operated due to the ‘Heater demand temperature check” then the filter
pump will deactivate.
k) When heater demand is enabled the “Heater temp check delay” is cleared.
l) If heating demand is enabled, the “Heating temp check delay” has completed and the filtration
pump is not operating, it will enable the “heater demand temperature check” and operate the
filter pump.
m) Heater Demand setting will be disabled after the “Heater Demand Maximum operating time”.
n) If any valve needs to change position the unit will queue the change after the gas heater cool
down period.
o) The heater output will deactivate the gas heater unit but will keep the filter pump operating for
fifteen minutes then deactivate for forty seconds as the valve changes position. The filter pump
will operate and after a three minute delay the heater output will enable if required.
