Automatic System Using The Programming Buttons - Hayward OnCommand Operation Manual

The OnCommand controls most of your pool equipment automatically in order to minimize the time spent working
on your pool. Most of the pool equipment can be programmed to operate on a timeclock basis. In addition, the
desired pool and spa temperatures can be programmed. This section will guide you on how to program the
automatic operation for each function.
The programming of automatic functions can be performed at either the main display/keypad located at the pool
equipment pad or the in-home remote display/keypad.
Using the programming buttons
There are 5 buttons on each keypad that are used for programming (refer to diagram).
Use "<" and ">" Buttons to
select items from a menu
There are 4 steps to programming any function:
1. Press the "MENU" button to get to the desired menu. Multiple pushes of the button will
rotate through all 6 menus and return to the starting point.
2. Press either key to scroll through the various items in the selected menu. Multiple pushes
of the button will rotate through all menu items and return to the starting point. Only menu
< >
items that are applicable to your pool will appear. (Example: if you don't have a spa, then
no spa related menu items will appear).
3. Once a menu item has been selected above, the current setting/selection will appear (flashing)
on the display. Use the "+" and/or "-" keys to change this selection. Sometimes "+" and
"-" will adjust a value up or down (example: heater temperature setting or timeclock on/off
time). In this case, pushing the "+" or "-" will change the value by one increment and
holding the "+" or "-" button in for more than one second will make the values auto scroll.
In other cases, the "+" and "-" may toggle between 2 options (example: turning
superchlorination ON or OFF).
4. After you have adjusted the item to the desired value, simply move on to the next menu
< > item to "lock in" your new setting. The OnCommand memory will maintain the setting,
even if power is removed for an extended period.
