What to do if there is no display on the Davey Controller screen?
If the Davey Controller displays no image, first ensure the mains power outlet is switched ON. Then, check if the SolarMatic is properly plugged into the mains power outlet. Finally, verify the SolarMatic controller is turned ON by pressing the POWER button.
Why is my Davey SolarMatic Controller temperature display flashing a fault code?
If your Davey Controller is showing a flashing fault code on the temperature display, first check that the POOL sensor cable is intact, that the brass sensor is correctly fitted into the pipe, and that the connector (BLACK) is properly plugged into the control unit. Also, cold roof temperatures can trigger this fault code, so wait for warmer conditions. Ensure the ROOF temperature cable is intact and the connector (RED) is properly plugged into the unit. Finally, verify that both POOL and ROOF temperature cables are intact and their connectors are properly plugged into the unit.
How to troubleshoot a Davey Controller if the pool is not heating or not hot enough?
If your pool isn't heating sufficiently with the Davey Controller, it could be due to several reasons. Check if the ROOF temperature is below the SET temperature and wait for warmer weather. Also, ensure the POOL temperature isn't already above the SET temperature; adjust the SET temperature if needed. Finally, insufficient solar radiation or solar collectors may be the cause; wait for warmer weather and verify that enough solar collectors have been installed for your pool size.
What to do if my Davey Controller is trying to heat the pool in winter?
If the Davey Controller is causing your pool to heat in winter, reduce the SET temperature to its minimum value. When warmer weather returns, simply adjust the SET temperature back to your preferred comfort level.
Why is the PUMP RUN LED flashing on my Davey Controller?
If the PUMP RUN LED is flashing on your Davey Controller, wait for the pool filtration pump to turn on.

Reduces pump operation and costs by only running pump when roof temp is sufficiently high.
Stores operation settings like SET TEMP and mode if power is interrupted.
Ensures minimum run/off times (10 mins) for pump to prevent frequent cycling.
Circulates pool water daily to prevent stagnation in the solar collector.
Covers fault codes like PP, rr, and Pr related to sensor connections or roof temperature.
Indicates no water flow to the pump or loose/disconnected flow sensor.
Troubleshooting steps for when the unit has no power or is not switched on.
Addresses issues where roof temperature is too low or SET temperature needs adjustment.
Explains why the pump might run in winter and suggests reducing SET temperature.
