SPECIAL FEATURES
USER AUTHORITY LEVEL
To prevent accidental changes to critical settings, the Pool Lab PL Series incorporates a
user authority level. By default the authority level is set to USER. Before any critical
settings can be edited, the user authority level must be raised to INSTALLER. There is
also a LIMITED level which prevents adjustment of all settings, and there are also
TECHNICIAN and FACTORY levels which require a PIN.
To enable editing of system settings, you must first raise the AUTHORITY level to
INSTALLER.
– From the HOME VIEW, press and hold the VIEW button for at least 5 seconds.
– This will show the MAIN MENU.
– Navigate to SYSTEM CONFIG, and press VIEW
– Navigate to AUTHORITY, and press VIEW
– Press VIEW again to edit the AUTHORITY setting.
– Press the UP / DOWN keys to change the setting to INST (ie. INSTALLER)
– Press the VIEW button to save the setting.
– Press BACK button twice to return to MAIN MENU
PUMP PROTECTION MONITOR
This feature monitors the amount of time the system has been in a low flow situation, and
will turn off the filtration pump after a predetermined amount of time to protect the pump
from damage. For systems with a sand filter we recommend a minimum of 5 minutes so
that the feature does not interrupt backwashing.
To set the PUMP PROTECTION TIME period:
– Set the AUTHORITY level to INSTALLER as described above.
– From the MAIN MENU navigate to SETTINGS, and press VIEW.
– Navigate to the PUMP PROTECTION field and press VIEW to edit.
– Use the UP and DOWN buttons to adjust the time in MINUTES.
– Press the view button to save the setting.
– Press the BACK button to exit.
The pump protection feature will be enabled when the PUMP PROTECTION TIME is set to
any number greater than ZERO.
To disable PUMP PROTECTION MONITOR, set the PUMP PROTECTION TIME to ZERO.
PLUMBING FLUSH
This feature is automatic, no programming or adjustments are necessary. When in AUTO
mode, the cell power will automatically switch off 30 seconds before the pump to ensure
cell housing and plumbing is flushed of concentrated chlorine. This unique feature
prevents high chlorine levels in the pipework diffusing through and corroding heater tube
bundles and the possibility of damaging other sensitive equipment up-stream of the cell.
