How to Operate a Digital Controller
- Once the unit has power connected, the display should read either OFF or the actual pool or spa water temperature. If other than OFF or the actual water temperature are displayed, see the Troubleshooting section of manual.
- If the display reads OFF, press the up arrow key until the display reads 45°F or higher
- NOTE: THE DISPLAY READS CURRENT POOL / SPA WATER TEMPERATURE WHEN THE DESIRED TEMPERATURE IS SET TO 45°F OR ABOVE. WHEN THE DESIRED WATER TEMPERATURE IS SET BELOW 45°F, THE DISPLAY READS OFF.
- Once the unit is displaying the current water temperature, the system is ready to operate. Locate the POOL / SPA selector key on the control panel; by pressing this key, you can select between the pool and spa mode.
- Using the POOL / SPA selector key, select the pool mode. When the pool mode has been selected, the pool indicator light, located on the left side of the display, will be illuminated.
- With the control in the pool mode, use the UP / DOWN arrow keys to set the desired pool water temperature.
- If heat pump is also being used to heat a spa, repeat the previous two steps to program the desired spa water temperature.
- The heat pump will now maintain the desired water temperature for the mode selected: POOL or SPA.
- In operation, whenever the actual (displayed) water temperature falls below the desired set point, the unit will start heating after an initial time delay of 3-4 minutes
- NOTE: THE HEAT PUMP INCORPORATES AN ANTI-SHORT CYCLE TIME DELAY. SHOULD OPERATION BE INTERRUPTED, RESTART WILL BE DELAYED BY APPROXIMATELY 4 MINUTES.
