t MinTimeOff 00:05:00: This is the total amount the relay will be OFF in the off part of the cycle and is
part of the mixing time. This command can’t be disabled.
t PPM High Limit 0.0: Prevents feeding sanitizer if the PPM reading reaches a high value.
t ORP High Limit 0: Prevents feeding sanitizer if the ORP reading reaches a high value.
t Off if Flow Off - 1 or 3: The ORP Relay will be turned off if “No Flow”
is detected in Flow Switch Input
1 for Pool1 and if “No Flow” is detected in Flow Switch Input 3 for Pool2. Note: This setting can’t be
changed.
t SetOvrfeed 00:00:00: Setpoint overfeed requires the measurement to reach the setpoint to clear. If a
feed tube is broken and the chemicals are going on the floor this type of overfeed protection will detect
that and shut down the relay sooner than the daily overfeed. Calculate how much feed time is required
for the setpoint to be reached starting from 0. When the Setpoint Overfeed is reached the relay status
will display an “s”. The default value is 00:00:00 which is disabled, in order to use this feature calculate
the amount of time required and enter that time.
qSetpoint Overfeed can be cleared by manually fixing the chemical imbalance or clearing the
overfeed timers in the Service menu.
t Overfeed 01:00:00: The Overfeed time represents the maximum amount of time a chemical relay will
feed in a day from midnight to midnight. This must be set up properly to reduce the chance of feeding
large amounts of chemicals in the event something goes wrong. The default time will most likely not be
correct. Please follow the calculation below. The minimum value for Overfeed time is 1 minute, it can’t
be disabled.
qCalculate the total amount of chemical the pool would ever need in a 24 hour period. (Example: 10
Gallons would be the MOST liquid chlorine a pool would need on any given day).
qCalculate the amount of time it would take the feed-pump to inject that total amount of liquid chlorine
in a 24 hour period. Example: Limit to 10 gallons with a 50 Gallon Per Day (GPD) Fixed Rate
Peristaltic Pump. 10 Gallons / 50 Gallons * 24 Hours = 4.8 hours or 04:48:00. You will need to adjust
for variable pumps depending on the variable pump setting. Most variable pumps use a scale of 10
to 0. So if the pump is set on 8 then use 80% of the total GDP rate, in this case .80 x 50 GPD = 40
GPD.
qCalculate the overfeed time with the following equation using the following example…..
Overfeed Time = (Daily Gallon Maximum) / (Pump GPD Rate) times (24 Hours)
Round up and set the overfeed time. It can be set for minutes and seconds for finer control.
Alarm 1 and 2 Setup
The Relay menu includes the alarm settings for the alarm light on the enclosure lid. Scroll to Alarm1 or
Alarm2 and press Enter. To use delta values based on the setpoint rather than absolute values turn on
Alarm Deltas in the Setup menu.
Absolute Sensor Alarms
t High Alarms: The alarm will turn on if the sensor is greater than the value.
t Low Alarms: The alarm will turn on if the sensor is less than the value.
Delta Sensor Alarms
Delta alarms are handy if you often change the setpoints. In that case the alarm limits automatically change
without needing to also change the alarm limits. Temperature doesn’t use delta alarms.
t ORP+: Setpoint + 100: The alarm will turn on if the sensor is greater than the ORP setpoint + the
value. Press Enter to cycle between 0, 50, 100, 150, 200 and 250.
t ORP-: Setpoint - 100: The alarm will turn on if the sensor is less than the ORP setpoint - the value.
Press Enter to cycle between 0, 50, 100, 150, 200 and 250.
t PPM+: Setpoint + 3.0: The alarm will turn on if the sensor is greater than the PPM setpoint + the value.
Press Enter to cycle between 0.0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5 and 3.0.
