Control Settings

The user can access these control settings by press-

ing and holding the MENU button for 5+ seconds.  Any

changes  to  values  are  stored  into  the  non-volatile

memory  when  the  MENU  button  is  pressed  –  which

also toggles to the next setting. Failure to press any

buttons for 60 seconds will cause the screen to revert

back to its previous operating mode screen.  However,

the  user  mode  can  also  be  exited  by  pressing  and

holding the MENU button for 5+ seconds.

Set Current Time

This allows setting of the current time.  The time is fol-

lowed by an “A” or “P” for AM and PM respectfully.  The

control has a 24-hour time clock – although it is NOT

a 7-day time clock.  The time clock is used for control

of the pump periods and AUX1 & AUX2 times.

C/F Display

This setting is used to define the units of measure for

all  temperature  readings.    Fahrenheit  is  the  default

value.  You can change the setting to Celsius by tog-

gling the UP or DOWN button and then pressing the

MENU button to lock in the change.

Spa Max Temp

This setting is used to define the maximum tempera-

ture  that  the  control  can  be  set  at  for  the  Spa

operation.  The range is 65F – 104F.  The default value

is 104F.

Pool Max Temp

This setting is used to define the maximum tempera-

ture  that  the  control  can  be  set  at  for  the  Pool

operation.  The range is 65F – 95F.  The default value

is 95F.

Pump Periods

When the Pump Operation in the Installer’s Menu is

set to “4-Speed Enabled” or “Variable Enabled”, this

allows  the  setting  of  Pump  Periods  from  this  menu.

When  setting  this  parameter,  the  control  displays

“Pump  Periods”  on  the  first  line  of  the  display.   The

number of pump periods (0 – 4) is displayed on the

center of the 2

nd

line.  Pressing the UP or DOWN but-

tons  increments/decrements  the  number  of  pump

periods – factory default is 1.  If a non-zero number of

pump  periods  is  selected  when  the  MENU  button  is

pressed,  the  control  will  prompt  for  On/Off  times  for

each of the selected number of pump periods.

Temperature Control

The control uses the appropriate Pool or Spa setpoint

as selected in the Operating mode.  The heat demand

begins  when  the  water  temperature  is  0.5F  or  more

colder (or 0.5F or more hotter in cooling mode) than

the setpoint.

Additional Features

Pump Control

The control is equipped to operate the system pump.

The control provides for an output for a single speed

pump (0.75A @ 24VAC maximum) as well as an out-

put  for  a  variable  speed  pump  (10mA  @12  VDC).

Four  signals  are  provided  for  selection  of  4  discrete

speeds for a variable speed pump. The control can be

configured  to  provide  a  PWM  signal  on  the  speed1

output.  The  control  will  energize  the  pump  at  the

requested speed for each of the pump periods set in

the program mode.  If a heat pump demand is present

during a scheduled pump operation, the pump runs at

the override speed (Speed 1) regardless of the sched-

uled  speed.    When  the  pump  is  active  because  of

scheduled  operation  and  there  is  no  active  heat

demand, the control sets the 3-ways valve outputs to

the states set in the program mode schedule.             

Low Ambient (Outside) Lockout

The control is equipped with a Low Ambient Lockout

feature which will prevent the start of a new cycle if the

ambient  temperature  is  lower  than  the  programmed

value.  This  feature  is  accessed  through  the

Installer/Service 

Sub-menu 

as 

noted 

in

INSTALLER/SERVICE menus on pages 15 - 26.  The

default  value  is  “OFF”,  but  the  temperature  can  be

adjusted between 30F and 50F.  This feature can be

enabled if it is desired to not operate the unit if the tem-

perature falls below this value.  NOTE:  This feature

will NOT stop the operation of an existing cycle, it will

only prevent operation of a new cycle.

An open ambient temperature sensor (display will read

“Air Temp -46F”) will trigger an “Outside Lockout” error

if the Low Ambient lockout is enabled.  A shorted (dis-

play will read “Air Temp 282F”) ambient temperature

sensor will also cause the control to shut off the com-

pressor  regardless  of  if  the  Low  Ambient  lockout  is

enabled.

Control Lock Box Mode

The control is equipped with a Control Lockout feature

which is accessed by pressing and holding the MENU

and  DOWN  buttons  for  5  seconds. The  user  will  be

prompted  to  enter  a  3-digit  code.  A  cursor  flashes

under each digit in the 3 digit code when that digit is

NOTE: 

See  Table  G  on  page  36  for  Operational

Status  Messages  that  you  may  see  during  normal

operation.
