Alarm Deltas: On
t Time Zone: Enter the appropriate time zone or the time will not be correct.
t Unused Rly Cmds: This setting makes the controller easier to program. When a relay setting is 0 that
setting is skipped. Ex. For pH control, if Base Setpoint = 0 there is no reason to even see that
command. Changing this setting to “Hide” will hide all of the commands that are 0 making the list of
settings shorter. This also makes changing the settings safer because if the setting “Base Setpoint = 0”
is not shown it can’t be accidentally changed.
t Alarm Deltas: Setting to “Yes” will use a value that is added to the setpoint as the alarm condition.
When changing the setpoint the alarm will remain a consistent value away from the setpoint. For more
information see the “Alarm 1 and 2 Setup” in the Relay Menu. Changing this will bring up the warning
screen to press “9” to proceed as it will reset all alarms to factory defaults..
t P1/2 pH LKout min/hr 0 (Poolwarden Only): When in pH lockout most controllers disable sanitizer
feed completely. The PoolWarden allows for a backup control when in pH lockout by feeding from 1 to
9 minutes every hour (0 disables). This feature isn’t included with the TrueDPD as the PPM
measurement will be in control.
