Page 9: View The Current Power Level Setting
MegaChlor includes 10 power level settings that are set based on water volume, usage and testing. The MegaChlor factory setting is 3 (2 hours). The output power to the cell is always the same, the power level changes the amount of time the cell is energized when it turns on. Power level 1 is 30 minutes on, 2 is 1 hour on, 3 is 2 hours on and so on. - Page 10 If currently in a production cycle pressing the Boost button will terminate the production cycle and place the MegaChlor in standby mode for 3 hours. The boost button is an easy way to start or stop a chlorine production cycle. When Boost Mode is active, the salt level light will flash.
- Page 11 MegaChlor measures for the absence of sanitizer as a voltage with a built in sensor. When the sensor value drops below the Zero Point and it has been off at least 3 hours, MegaChlor will start a chlorine production cycle. The Zero Point should be set to a value that represents no chlorine when measured with a test kit.
