3.2 CONTROL OVERVIEW

The following is a brief explanation of owner or operator control options. For full features of the Owner
Options Menu, please see page 19. The MENU button is pressed to obtain access to the Owner
Options Menu.
Please Note: This section assumes the installer has already programmed the system for
specific site parameters, has established proper water balance, and has pretreated water to 1 -
3 ppm (mg/L) chlorine.
Attention Owner: Should Centigrade vs. Fahrenheit, choice of language, or other owner options
require modification, please refer to the programming information located on page 19.
See: Menu Button and Owner Options.

3.2.1 Up and Down Arrows

Use the UP and DOWN arrows to control the chlorine output level, then press the SELECT
button to save the value chosen. With a properly prepared pool, the recommended starting
output level is 50%.
Upon initial start-up, check sanitizer every 3-4 days and make small output level adjustments as
necessary to maintain 1-3 ppm (mg/L) free chlorine levels. Keep in mind, your Digital
Nano/Nano + does not directly measure or regulate the sanitizer levels in your pool. Rather, the
owner / operator will need to periodically test the water to determine the current chlorine level,
and adjust the output setting as needed.
After the chlorine output level is "tuned in," the unit will automatically make fine output
adjustments as the water temperature fluctuates. This temperature compensation feature will
adjust output depending on water temperature. See page 7 for more information concerning the
patented temperature compensation feature.
Please Note: The optimum output setting will vary based upon pool size, location, exposure to
sunlight, number of users, vegetation around the pool, water balance practices, and pump run
time. Your installer should have already taken these factors into consideration when performing
installation programming. Therefore, your adjustments, at this point, should be relatively minor.

3.2.2 The Boost Button

The BOOST button increases output to 100%. Use this feature when a heavier than normal
bather load is anticipated.
Press BOOST once ............................ = 24 Hour Boost
Press and hold BOOST for 8 seconds
Press BOOST a second time .............. = Deactivate Boost

3.2.3 Menu and Select Button


This allows access to the "Test," "Setup," "Owner Option," "Maintenance," and "Installer" menus.

The "SELECT" button allows the operator to choose program menu options. The owner /
operator should not normally need to access these features on a regular basis.

Consult "Programming" section, or contact factory customer support for additional information.

3.2.4 Check System Light and Audio Alarm

The CHECK SYSTEM light will flash to warn the unit may need attention. A warning message will
also be displayed. If enabled, an audio alarm* may also be heard when the system light is flashing.
Unless deemed a normal condition, per below, see troubleshooting section.

Flashes red when pump is off / water flow is insufficient. (It is normal for the light to flash if
the circulation pump is off)

Flashes when salt is low
