    HEATING- QUICK START & STOP Note to Dealer/Installer: This, and the “Owner Level Programming” sections were originally writ- ten for use by the home owner/operator. As such, much of the language will be owner-directed. The intent of this section is to provide rapid access to very basic operational information. Indi- viduals who will be routinely using, installing, maintaining, and servicing the heat pump, are strongly encouraged to read this entire manual.

    Generally speaking, the installer’s main focus within Level-2 programming will be in configuring for external controller compatibility. And, unless instructed to do otherwise by the AquaCal Technical Support Group, the installer should not adjust sensor calibration or dead-band values.

Once [dEL] is displayed, press the [POOL/SPA] key until the display shows [tSC] (Water Temperature Calibration). Using either the [UP] or [DOWN] arrow keys, calibrate the water temperature sensor by increasing or decreasing the numeric value displayed to match the measured water temperature.

    Then, if after working through site-related issues the heater is still not functioning correctly, the Service Representative will offer to set up a service visit. As necessary, please Contact AquaCal Customer Support Group (800- 786-7751).
  • Page 19: Mode Jumper And Positioning

    Microprocessor Mode Jumper Positioning Mode Jumper Explained The HP7R microprocessor is designed to operate as a Heat-Only or a Heating & Cooling controller. The selection between the two choices is made through the positioning of a mode jumper contained on the microprocessor board. The position of the jumper is set at the factory, and is dependant upon the design of the heater being controlled.

  • Page 21: Defrost Systems (Described And Explained)

    Controls Configuration & Adjustments... Defrost Systems- Described DEFROST CYCLE (HEAT ONLY UNITS): The microprocessor controller monitors the heater’s air-coil temperature, minimizing air-coil freeze- up during cooler weather conditions. If the controller senses air-coil temperatures conductive to mak- ing ice, the heater’s compressor operation is interrupted while the fan is allowed to continue in opera- tion.
