System Control<br />
AUTO<br />
Note: The filter<br />
pump timer must be<br />
set so that the filter<br />
pump operates<br />
during the time of<br />
the day when solar<br />
energy is available.<br />
Menu button: The Set Water Temp settings is displayed.<br />
Right button: Press the button to display the “System Control” setting.<br />
Up/Down button: The selections are:<br />
AUTO: Automatically switch the system on whenever solar energy is available. Use<br />
“AUTO” for normal operation and adjust the desired temperature setting for the pool,<br />
spa. In “AUTO” mode, SunTouch will heat the pool or spa (rotate the valve to solar<br />
position or turn on a booster pump) when solar heat is available and the “Set Water<br />
Temp” is set higher than the water temperature. The solar temperature start and stop<br />
differential settings are factory set at 6° and 3°. The solar roof sensor must be 6°<br />
higher than the water temperature. The pump must be ON for a few minutes for<br />
operation. When the roof sensor and the water temperature are within 3°, solar heat<br />
will switch off. This differential setting is adjustable in the “Stop Temp Diff” menu<br />
setting. See your solar service professional for the optimum setting.<br />
SOLAR ON: Manually switch the solar system on regardless of solar energy being<br />
available. This position should be used only to test the solar system operation.<br />
Note: Pool Pressure Cleaner Delay: Whenever the solar system is turned on, an<br />
electronic delay automatically turns off the pool pressure cleaner for five<br />
minutes. This protects the pump from damage caused by air in the solar panels<br />
at system start-up. The pressure cleaner is connected to AUX 2 which will be<br />
always set to on.<br />
SOLAR OFF: Manually switch the solar system off.<br />
Left button: Press the Left button to return to the main status screen.<br />
