Mode—Ready and Rest
Ready Mode: indicated by R will circulate water periodically, using
Pump 1 Low, to maintain a constant water temperature, heat as
needed, and refresh the temperature display. This is known as
“polling.”
Rest Mode: Indicated by will only allow heating during
programmed filter cycles. Since polling does not occur, the
temperature display may not show a current temperature until the
primary pump has been running for a minute or two.
Ready in Rest Mode: indicated by R appears in the display if the
spa is in Rest Mode and “Jets” is pressed. It is assumed that the
spa is being used and will heat to set temperature. The primary
pump will run until the set temperature is reached, or an hour has
passed. After an hour, the System will revert to Rest Mode. This
mode can also be reset by entering the Mode Menu and changing
the Mode.
Be sure to set the Time-of-Day.
Setting the time-of-day can be important for determining
filtration times and other background features. When in the
TIME menu, SET TIME will flash on the display if no time-of-
day is set in the memory. A 2-hour time display can be set under
the PREF menu.
Hold Mode
Hold Mode is used to disable the pumps during service functions
like cleaning or replacing the filter. old Mode will last for 1 hour
unless the mode is exited manually.
Restricting Operation
The control can be restricted to prevent unwanted use or
temperature adjustments. Locking the panel prevents the
controller from being used, but all automatic functions are still
active. Locking the Temperature allows Jets and other features to
be used, but the Set Temperature and other programmed settings
cannot be adjusted. Temperature Lock allows access to a reduced
selection of menu items. These include Set Temperature, FLIP,
LOCK, UTIL, INFO and FALT LOG.
Unlocking: While pressing and holding the Temperature Button
(or UP button, if available), Slowly press and release the Menu/
Select button two times.
Adjusting Filtration
Filter cycles are set using a start time and a duration. Start time is
indicated by an “A” or “P” in the bottom right corner of the display.
Duration has no “A” or “P” indication. Each setting can be
adjusted in 15-minute increments. The panel calculates the end
time and displays it automatically. Press Menu/Select repeatedly
until FLTR 1 appears in the LCD. Waiting a few seconds will
lose any new Filter 1 Start Time and Run Hours and revert to
the previous Filter 1 settings. With FLTR 1 on the screen press
the UP button. Press the UP button again to go pass BEGN.
Use the UP & Down button to adjust the start time. Press the
MENU/Select button to save the start time. Next use the UP &
Down buttons to set the duration, can be set in 15-minute
increments.
Filter Cycle 2 - Optional Filtration Filter Cycle 2 is OFF by
default. It is possible to overlap Filter Cycle 1 and Filter Cycle 2,
which will shorten overall filtration by the overlap amount.
Purge Cycles In order to maintain sanitary conditions, secondary
Pumps and/or a Blower will purge water from their respective
plumbing by running briefly at the beginning of each filter cycle.
If Filter Cycle 1 is set for 24 hours, enabling Filter Cycle 2 will
initiate a purge when Filter Cycle 2 is programmed to begin.
Preferences
F/C (Temp Display): Change the temperature between
Fahrenheit and Celsius. 12/24 (Time Display) Change the clock
between 12 hr and 24 hr display.
RE-MIN-DERS (Reminders) Turn the display of reminder
messages (like “Clean Filter”) On or Off. Note: Reminders
continue to run in the background even when not displayed. So,
turning the display of Reminders on or off does not reset any
Reminder counts.
CLN-UP (Cleanup) Cleanup Cycle Duration is not always
enabled, so it may not appear. When it is available, set the
length of time Pump 1 will run after each use. 0-4 hours are
available.
M8 (This message may not appear on all systems.) On systems
that have M8, it is enabled by default. It can be disabled (or re-
enabled) here. M8 reduces polling intervals when the water
temperature in the spa is steady.
Utilities and Information
INFO (System Information sub-menu) The System Information
Menu displays various settings and identification of the system.
SSID (Software ID) Displays the software ID number for the
System.
