Pool/Spa Mode Menus

The following describes the 14 “Pool/Spa mode” menus. Displayed on the Main Menu screen is the menu description and the menu number (1/14).

Circuit On/Off Menu (1/14)

Use the “Circuit On/Off” menu feature to manually switch ON/OFF the pool filter pump, auxiliary

circuits (AUX 1-3) and feature circuits (FT. 1-4). Switching circuits on or off will override any programmed schedules that might already be assigned to these circuits. For more information about schedules, see “Schedules Menu” on page 17.

POOL FILTER PUMP ON/OFF

: Use the “Circuit On/Off” Pool setting, to manually switch the pool filter pump relay on or off. When the pool filter pump switched on, the valve actuator will rotate to isolate the pool water from the spa water, and switch the heater on (if enabled in the “Heat” menu). When this circuit relay is switched on manually, it remains on until either you switch it off manually or the default 12 hours has elapsed.

The system default 12 hours can be changed from 1 to 23 hours (see “Circuit Timeout” page 24). For example, if the filter pump is scheduled to automatically run from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM daily, then the filter pump is switched on manually at 9:00 PM, it will run continuously until the next day at 5:00 PM then switch off. The schedule will then continue from then on. The top display line on the main status screen will alternately display the current water temperature and the current air temperature (if the air sensor is enable, see page 24 for details). If the pool filter pump is on, and the spa is switched on using the Up arrow button, the main status screen will alternately display the current water temperature between “Pool” and “Spa” mode. For

HI-TEMP, LO-TEMP controls (SunTouch single body system), see page 40.

AUX 3:

AUX 3 circuit can be used as an extra assignment to control and electric heater, pump speeds or a valve actuator (see page 26 for details). For example, AUX 3 can be assigned to control the high speed function of a 2-Speed pump or one of the four speeds of the IntelliFlo VS. The pump speed control can be selected/activated via a scheduled program or switched on/off manually. You can also assign a button on the four-function QuickTouch wireless remote (optional equipment) to control the high-speed pump function.
