On systems with the UV monitor, the system will display the same screens as on the
Microlene MCXS controller except the UV Intensity replaces the home screen. The
UV Intensity screen displays the level of UV light detected by the sensor. UV intensity
can be affected by poor water quality, scaling on the quartz sleeve and/or sensor,
lamp failure or lamp expiring. The following screens show the UV Intensity dropping.
Below 56%, the numbers and warning sign turn red and an audible chirp is given
by the ballast every 15 seconds. Below 51%, the screen is solid red and a constant
audible alarm is given. This alternates with a screen indicating "water may be unsafe
for consumption". With the solenoid module, the controller de-activates the solenoid
valve, shutting off all water flow.

At thirty days remaining, the LED or display screen will change to a yellow caution
indicator. At seven days remaining, the system will additionally repeat an audible
chirp. Past the zero day threshold, the LED or display screen changes to solid red
with a continuous alarm sound.
