CAUTION

Before attempting calibration or commissioning of the DCM5 controller, water chemistry must be stable and within normal ranges 

of 7.2-7.8 pH, Total Alkalinity 80-120 ppm, Free Chlorine 1-2 ppm

pH Calibration

Adjusting Pump Setpoints

(Residual and Temperature calibrations are performed in the same 

manner from their respective sensor menus, but field ORP calibrations 

are not normally needed.)

1.  Perform a pH test and NOTE the results

Note: “Turn OFF Setpoint” is the ideal point where chemical 

control is achieved and “Turn ON Setpoint” is the point used to 

define the on/off deadband or proportional span needed.

2.  Press   2 times

2.  Press   3 times to 

change the Turn ON

or Exit]

4.  Press       to  

adjust displayed value 

to match the tested 

value, then press   

to accept the change

3.  Press       to 

adjust the Turn ON 

Setpoint, usually one 

or two units (0.1 ppm) 

below the Turn OFF 

setpoint for Oxidant 

feed systems. Then 

press   to accept the 

new value. 

5.  Press   to return 

to the main status 

screen

5.  Press     to 

adjust the “Turn OFF 

Setpoint”. This is the 

point where oxidant 

feed is satisfied, and 

considered by most to 

be the setpoint when 

only 1 setponit is 

used. Then   press 

to accept the new 

value.

4.  Press   then   to 

change the Turn OFF 

Setpoint. (Default is 

1.5ppm)

6.  Pressing   BACK returns to the main status screen
