4.1.4 Standby speed setting
The pump can be run at standby speed rather than full rotational speed. The standby speed is a user-configurable
option and can be set to any value between 55% and 100% full rotational speed. When the pump is shipped, it is
configured with a standby speed of 70% full rotational speed.
The standby speed setting can be changed using the STDBY+ and STDBY- push buttons located on the controller
(shown in Figure 12) or by using a serial command. If using the buttons, each button press will adjust the speed
by 10 Hz (1%).
To change the standby speed setting using a serial command, send the following command (where the characters 'd'
