Independent Conventional Heating

a)  The Heater Pump must be running for three minutes to prime itself before a heater is enabled.
b)  If Gas heating is selected the pump must run for six minutes after the gas heater is disabled for 

cool down.

c)  Normally open contact No.1 will be allocated for heater activation. Relay three is allocated for 

an independent heater pump.

d)  In a pool system with Solar and conventional heating, if solar preference has been selected and 

solar is enabled with solar heat gain detected any convention heater will not operate. If Heating 
Demand is initially enabled-the Heating temp check delay is cleared.

e)  The “Heating temp check delay” is on countdown timer.
f)  If the heater pump has been operating for over three minutes and the flow switch closed for 

twenty seconds and the pool temperature is 1

O

C less than the set temperature the heater option 

is enabled. 

g)  If Heater is on and the heater 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 deactivate 

set the “Heating temperature check delay” for the “Heating temperature check period”. 

h)  The Heater pump output will turn off after the cool down period.
i)  If when the Heater demand is first activated the “Heater temp check delay” is cleared.
j)  If the Heating demand is enabled and the “Heating temp check delay” has finished and the 

heater pump is off turn on the “heater demand temperature check” and turn on the heater pump. 

k)  The Heater Demand setting will be disabled after the “Heater Demand Max run time”. Note- the 

Heater pump will not stop if a valve change request has been initiated.

Solar Heating operation-
Operation modes

a)  If there is a faulty solar or pool temp probe solar is disabled.
b)  The user can manually disable solar or solar demand.
c)  Pool Temperature will be displayed on the LCD Control Panel home screen if the filtration pump 

is operating, solar output is enabled or heater output is enabled.

Solar Valve Operation (integrated system)

a)  If the filtration pump is turned off manually or timer off event happens the controller will switch 

the solar valve off and set the “solar temp check delay” (for use with solar demand).

b)  If solar demand is enabled-the solar temp check delay is cleared.
c)  The “solar temp check delay” is on countdown.
d)  If the filtration pump has be running for over three minutes and the flow switch closed for twenty 

seconds and the (pool temp - 1

O

C) is less than the set temp and solar enabled option is enabled 

and the solar valve is off and the “solar temp check delay” has finished and the solar temp is 
+5

O

C more the pool temp, turn the filtration pump off and switch the valve to activate flow to the 

solar pipes and reactivate the filtration pump.*

e)  If solar valve is on the and the filtration pump has been running for over three minutes and the 

(pool temp + 0.3

O

C) is greater than the set temp turn the filter pump off switch the valve off 

then reactivate the filtration pump. Set the “solar temp check delay” for the “solar temp check 
period” on solar demand systems.

f)  If the solar valve is on and the filtration pump has been running for over three minutes and the 

solar temperature is less than the (pool temperature - 0.5

O

C) then turn the filtration pump off 

and turn off the solar valve, if the filtration pump wasn’t running because the “heater demand 
temperature check” then wait thirty seconds and operate the filter pump and set the “solar temp 
check delay”.

g) For the “solar temp check period”. Solar Temp check period for systems with solar heater 

demand enabled can be adjusted; otherwise the check delay is set for 2 Hours.

h)  If when the solar heating demand is first activated the “solar temp check delay” is cleared.
i)  If the solar heating demand is enabled and the “solar temp check delay” has finished and the 

filtration pump is off turn on the “solar demand temperature check” and turn on the filtration 
pump.

j)  Solar Demand is independent of solar enabled solar demand will run until solar demand is 

manually disabled. Solar demand will only run between 7am and 9pm.

Solar Booster Pump Operation (integrated system)

a)  If the filtration pump is turned off manually or timer off event happens the controller will switch 

the solar booster pump off and set the “solar temp check delay”. If solar demand is enabled-the 
solar temp check delay is cleared.

b)  The “solar temp check delay” is on countdown timer.
c)  If the filtration pump has been operating for over three minutes and the flow switch closed for 

twenty seconds, pool temperature - 1

O

C is less than the set temperature, solar enabled, the solar 

booster pump is not operating and the “solar temp check delay” has finished and the solar temp 
is +5

O

C more the pool temp, the solar boost pump will activate. If solar booster pump is on and 

the filtration pump has been running for over three minutes and the (pool temp +0.3

o

C) is greater 

than the set temp turn the solar booster pump off. Set the “solar temp check delay” for the “solar 
temp check period” on solar demand systems.

d)  If the solar booster pump is on and the filtration pump has been running for over three minutes 

and the solar temperature is less than the (pool temperature -0.5

o

C) then deactivate the solar 

booster pump, turn off the filter pump if running to check pool temperature.

e)  Set the “solar temp check delay” for the “solar temp check period”. Solar Temp check period for 

systems with solar heater demand enabled can be adjusted; otherwise the check delay is set for 
two Hours.

f)  If when the solar heating demand is first activated the “solar temp check delay” is cleared.
g)  If the solar heating demand is enabled and the “solar temp check delay” has finished and the 

filtration pump is off turn on the “solar demand temperature check” and turn on the filtration 
pump. Solar Demand is independent of solar enabled solar demand and will run until solar 
demand is manually disabled. Solar demand will only run between seven am and nine pm.

Solar Pump Independent

a)  If solar is enabled and the (pool temp - 1

O

C) is less than the set temp and solar enabled option 

is enabled and the solar pump is off and the “solar temp check delay” has finished and the solar 
temp is +5

O

C more the pool temp, activate the solar pump.

b)  If solar pump is on and(pool temp + 0.3

O

C) is greater than the set temp turn the solar pump 

off and Set the “solar temp check delay”  for the “solar temp check period” on solar demand 
systems.

c)  If solar pump is on and the solar temperature is less than the (pool temperature - 0.5

O

C) then turn 

off the solar pump. If solar is disabled turn off the solar pump.
