SECTION 6. GLOSSARIES
6.1 SAFETY DELAYS AND LOCKOUTS
Cleaner Lockout
The pool cleaner will only activate if the system is in pool mode (i.e.,
water circulating to pool). The pool cleaner requires that water is circulating to the
pool in order for it to operate. Return to pool mode to activate the cleaner.
Disabled
When activated does not allow the function to work.
Enabled
When activated allows the function to work.
Heater Cool Down Delay
When the system is heating (water is circulating to the spa)
and the Spa button is pressed, the system will remain in Spa Mode for five minutes,
and will continue to circulate the water. This delay allows water to cool the heater
down by circulating water through it, preventing equipment damage.
Heater Start-up
The heater will only come on if the water is circulating (e.g., filter pump
is on and has been circulating for 15 seconds) to the corresponding body of water
(e.g., spa for spa heater) and the actual water temperature is below the temperature
you set with Temp Set in the Menu. If these conditions are not met, the heater will be
enabled (ready to go), but will not fire. When the heater is enabled, the LED below
the DOWN button on the OneTouch Control Panel will be green. When it is firing,
the LED will turn red.
Heater “Short Cycling” Prevention
When the heater is activated and the desired
temperature is reached, heater will turn off and remain off for 3 minutes, even if the
temperature falls below the desired temperature. This feature prevents heater short
cycling (i.e., heater turning off and on in rapid succession).
Lockouts
Any device can be locked out. This will prevent the locked out device from
being turned on manually. However, the device will turn on/off when it is being
controlled by a program.
Pool/Spa Switching Filter Pump Delay
The filter pump turns off while valves
rotate between pool and spa to prevent damage to the pool equipment. The valves
take 35 seconds to rotate between pool and spa; the filter pump will activate as soon
as the valves have finished turning.
Spillover Lockout
The spillover will only activate if the system is in pool mode (i.e.,
water circulating to pool). The spillover requires that water is circulating to the pool
in order for it to operate. Return to pool mode to activate the waterfall. Also, if the
pool cleaner is on, it will turn off during spillover operation.
Spillover
When DIP Switch S1-3 is in the ON position, the Aux. 3 relay socket is activated
and the return valve actuator turns. The spillover is disabled while the spa is on. A
message is displayed when spillover is turned on while in spa mode (water circulation
is to spa). The spillover requires that water circulation is to pool in order to operate.
The spillover will activate when the system switches back to pool mode.
