7.1 Glossary of Safety Delays

The fi lter pump turns off while valves rotate between pool and spa to prevent damage
Pool/Spa Switching Filter Pump Delay -
to the pool equipment. The valves take 35 seconds to rotate between pool and spa; the fi lter pump will activate as soon as the
valves have fi nished turning.
When the system is heating (water is circulating to the spa) and the Spa button is pressed, the system
Heater Cool Down Delay -
will remain in Spa Mode for fi ve minutes, and will continue to circulate the water. This delay allows water to cool the heater down
by circulating water through it, preventing equipment damage. The fi ve minute delay starts counting down when the heater goes
off. If the heater has been off for fi ve minutes or more, prior to turning off the Spa, there will not be a delay.
The heater will only come on if the water is circulating (for example, the fi lter pump is on and has been
Heater Start-up -
circulating for 15 seconds) to the corresponding body of water (for example, spa for spa heater) and the actual water temperature
is below the temperature you set with TEMP SET in the Menu. If these conditions are not met, the heater will be enabled (ready to
go), but will not fi re.
When the heater is activated and the desired temperature is reached, heater will turn off and
Heater "Short Cycling" Prevention -
remain off for 3 minutes, even if the temperature falls below the desired temperature. This feature prevents heater short cycling
(in other words, the heater turning off and on in rapid succession).
The pool cleaner will only activate if the system is in pool mode and water is circulating. The pool cleaner
Cleaner Lockout -
requires that water is circulating to the pool in order for it to operate. Return to pool mode to activate the cleaner.
The spillover will only activate if the system is in pool mode and water is circulating. The spillover requires
Spillover Lockout -
that water is circulating to the pool in order for it to operate. Return to pool mode to activate the waterfall. Also, if the pool
cleaner is on, it will turn off during spillover operation.
When Dip Switch 3 is in the ON position, the Aux. 3 relay socket is activated and the return valve actuator turns.
Spillover -
The spillover is disabled while the spa is on. A message is displayed when spillover is turned on while in spa mode (water is
cir cu la ting to spa). The spillover requires that water cir cu la tion is to pool in order to op er ate. The spillover will activate when the
system switches back to pool mode.
When activated allows the function to work.
Enabled -
When activated does not allow the function to work.
Disabled -

7.2 Glossary of Special Auxiliary Labels

Operates only with Pool/Spa combination units.
Spare AUX-
System features (for example, software labeling and timed aux) can be assigned to the EXTRA AUX button. Only
Extra AUX-
freeze protection cannot be assigned to the extra auxiliary.
When an AUX button labeled "Air Blower" is pressed, it will turn on the air blower for 30 minutes, then
Air Blower -
automatically turn it off. An air blower may be programmed like any other auxiliary, except that you can program only the ON
time. The air blower will turn on at the programmed ON time, and turn off 30 minutes later. This is to protect the blower motor
from overheating during extended operation.
When an AUX button labeled "Fill Line" is pressed, it will turn on the fi ll line for 30 minutes, and then automatically
Fill Line -
turn it off. A fi ll line may be programmed like any other auxiliary, except that you can program only the ON time. The fi ll line will
turn on at the programmed ON time, and turn off 30 minutes later. This is to avoid overfi lling the pool. Choose the appropriate
number of "fi ll" programs during the week to keep your pool at the appropriate level.
