This menu only appears if more than one AQL-SS-6B is detected at power up. Select which of the available
remote controls (A, B or C) is to be configured.
6B A, Button 1
This menu allows the user to map each button of the AQL-SS-6B to one of the standard Pro Logic
functions. The default selections are: Button 1 - Pool/Spa, Button 2 - Filter, Button 3 - Lights, Button 4 -
Heater1, Button 5 - Aux1 and Button 6 - Aux2.
Toggle between Enabled (default) and Disabled Remote Menus

Enabled
Move to previous/next configuration menu
This feature will prevent unauthorized access to the Settings, Timers, and Configuration menus from any
of the Pro Logic's remote display/keypads. When disabled, the remote display/keypads will only show the
default menu and allow on/off control via the pushbuttons. Note that the function of the Pro Logic's built-
in display/keypad is unchanged by this selection. Once disabled, the only way to enable "Remote
Menus" is to use the local display/keypad.
Toggle between 7-day (default) and Weekend/Weekday time options
All Timeclocks
7-day
Move to previous/next configuration menu
This selection affects ALL of the timeclock logic in the Pro Logic. If "7-day" is selected, each timeclock will
have one set of turn-on/turn-off settings that operate every day of the week. If "Weekend/Weekdays"
option is selected then the user can enter one set of turn-on/turn-off times for the weekend (fixed as
Saturday/Sunday) and another set of turn-on/turn-off times for weekdays (Monday through Friday).

1. Preparing Pool/Spa Water

General Water Chemistry

Salt is required only if you are using the chlorinator features on the Pro Logic Control. If you are NOT using the
chlorinator, it is recommended that you follow all of the other chemistry recommendations besides salt. Refer to the
description of the Pro Logic configuration menu for information on enabling/disabling the chlorinator (see page 20).
Water Chemistry
The table below summarizes the levels that are recommended by the Association of Pool and Spa Professionals
(APSP). The only special requirements for the Pro Logic are the salt level and stabilizer.
Saturation index
The saturation index (Si) relates to the calcium and alkalinity in the water and is an indicator of the pool water "bal-
ance". Your water is properly balanced if the Si is 0 ±0.2. If the Si is below -0.2, the water is corrosive and plaster
pool walls will be dissolved into the water. If the Si is above +0.2, scaling and staining will occur. Use the chart below
to determine the saturation index.
Si = pH + Ti + Ci + Ai - 12.1

How to use: Measure pool pH, temperature, calcium hardness,
and total alkalinity. Use the chart above to determine Ti, Ci,and
Ai from your measurements. Insert values of pH, Ti, Ci and Ai
into the above equation. If Si equals .2 or more, scaling and
staining may occur. If Si equals -.2 or less corrosion or irritation
may occur.
