Boost Or Super Boost; Chlorine Mode; Chlorine % Adjustment Procedure - Aquacal Pool Pilot Digital Nano Owner's Manual

7.3.2 Boost or Super Boost

The Boost feature is used to increase the chlorine % from its normal setting to 100% for a cumulative
24 hour or 72 hour period. When the Boost period expires or is manually terminated the chlorine %
returns to its previous setting and normal operation.

Boost chlorine output to 100% for 24 hours... From the normal operation mode, press and
release the BOOST button. The display will flash: "Boost 24 hour ON," then "Boost hh" (with the
"hh" actually being the displayed hours remaining in the boost period).

Boost chlorine output to 100% for 72 hours... From normal operation mode, press and hold the
BOOST button until: "Boost 72 hour ON" is displayed; then release the BOOST button. Display
will show: "Boost" for approximately 8 seconds, after that: "Boost 72 hour ON" will display; then,
"Boost hh" (with the "hh" actually being the displayed hours remaining in boost period).
 If an external time clock or controller turns off power to the Digital Nano/Nano + while boost is
active, the boost timer is stored in memory and the boost time will resume countdown when
power is reapplied to the unit.

If water flow is stopped during a Boost cycle, chlorine generation will stop while there is no flow
but the Boost timer will continue to count down as long as the Digital Nano/Nano + has power.
To exit Boost or Super Boost mode and revert to normal operation:

Allow the Boost cycle to expire, or

Press BOOST at any time to manually deactivate Boost.

7.3.3 Chlorine Mode

The Digital Nano/Nano + will automatically display informative messages about the condition of the
Digital Nano/Nano + (Chlorine output %, water temperature, warning messages, etc.), and responds to
manual adjustment of chlorine % setting (as described below). The Digital Nano/Nano + will revert to
the normal display if there is no activity on the keypad for thirteen (13) or more seconds.

7.3.4 Chlorine % Adjustment Procedure

1) Balance water chemistry according to necessary water chemistry parameters. (See basic water
chemistry starting on page 36.) For new startups, if free chlorine level as tested is not at least 1
ppm (mg/L), add liquid chlorine to ensure 1 to 3 ppm (mg/L) free chlorine reading.
2) Add the proper amount of salt as indicated by the Digital Nano/Nano + (or as described on page
39), and run the circulation pump continuously for 24 hours allowing the salt to be fully mixed
and dissolved into the pool. If the salt level is too low, the Digital Nano/Nano + will provide a
warning, and will not generate chlorine until the minimum salt level has been reached.
3) Use the UP and DOWN arrow buttons to set the chlorine % to 50%, and then allow the pool to
operate normally.
For the first two weeks, test the water chemistry parameters every 3-4 days. Adjust chemicals as
needed to maintain correct water balance.
