Manual System Operation
While the main objective of the Aqua Logic is to automate the operation of your pool/spa system, there
may be certain times when you want to override the automatic operation and control the equipment manu-
ally. To operate the pool equipment manually while keeping the automation active, perform the following
procedures. Note that if you turn a relay on manually, it will remain on until either you turn it off manually,
or the next time the programmed automatic operation would normally turn that relay off. Example: the
filter pump is programmed to run from 9:00A to 5:00P daily. If you turn the filter pump on manually at
8:00PM, it will run continuously until the next day at 5:00PM at which time it will turn off and follow the
normal program from then on. Manually turning off a relay works in a similar fashion.
Filter Pump
Single Speed Filter Pump: If the pump is currently off, press the FILTER button to turn on the pump.
Pressing the FILTER button again will turn off the pump. However, if there is a heater in the system, and
it is operating, and the “Heater Cooldown” feature is enabled (Configuration Menu) then: when you press
the FILTER button to turn off the filter, only the heater will turn off, the Filter LED will flash and the display
will indicate “Heater Cooldown”. At this point the filter pump will automatically turn off after 5 minutes of
heater cooldown operation. If you want to override the heater cooldown, simply press the FILTER button
again to turn off the filter pump.
Two Speed Filter Pump: If the pump is currently off, simply press the FILTER button to turn on high
speed operation of the filter pump. The “Filter” LED will illuminate continuously. Pressing the FILTER
button again will switch to low speed operation and the “Filter” LED will flash. If you attempt to switch to
low speed shortly after turning on high speed the filter pump will automatically remain in high speed for 3
minutes before switching to low speed to allow the pump to prime and establish normal water flow.
Freeze Protection: This function protects the pool, plumbing, and equipment against freeze damage. If
Freeze Protection is enabled and the AIR temperature sensor falls below the preset freeze protection
temperature (see Filter Pump Configuration), the Aqua Logic will turn on the filter pump to circulate the
water.

Display
Diagnostic Menu
To enter the Diagnostic Menu, press the “Menu” button repeatedly until the display shows “Diagnostic
Menu”. At this point, you can use either the “<” or “>” buttons to scroll through the various menu items
which are described below:

Press to switch chlorinator operation to opposite polarity (15 second delay)
+/- 23.45V is the voltage applied to the chlorinator cell
+/-6.75A is the current (amps) through the cell
84ºF is the water temperature at the cell
3200PPM is the “instant” salt level at this time
This display will be shown only if the chlorinator is enabled. For the chlorinator to be
operating, several other things must be happening: the filter pump must be running, the flow
switch must be detecting flow, the chlorinator setting must be set greater than 0%, the water
temperature at the cell must be between 50ºF and 140ºF, and the salt level must be within the
operating range. If any of these conditions are not met, the chlorinator diagnostic display
will tell you the reason. It’s possible to have more than one reason, in which case after you
rectify what was displayed the first time, a second display will appear.
If the current (amps) display is 0.00A, then the chlorinator is operating normally but is in the
off part of its normal operating cycle. Simply press either the “+” or “-“ key to start a new
cycle.
The Aqua Logic periodically reverses the polarity of the voltage applied to the cell in order
to automatically clean off any calcium deposits. It is important that you check the chlorinator
operation in both polarities. To do this, press either the “+” or “-“ buttons and the chlorinator
will turn off, wait for 15 seconds and then turn on in the opposite polarity.
If a conventional or solar heater is operating, it is likely that the temperature of the water at
the cell is higher than the pool/spa water temperature displayed on the Aqua Logic default
display.

Press to load the “Instant salt” into the averaged salt display
This display will be shown only if the chlorinator is enabled. This display shows “Instant
Salt” or “Instant Minerals” (if Chlor. Config. is set for “Display Minerals”). The “Instant
Salt” is calculated based on the voltage, current (amps), and water temperature at the cell.
This is different than the “average salt” value which is displayed as part of the default menu.
There are a number of reasons why instant and average salt readings may differ. Some of
these include salt having just been added to the pool and not yet thoroughly mixed, calcium
buildup on the cell, and the cell aging.

This display will be shown only if the chlorinator is enabled. The current status of the flow
switch is displayed. There is a short delay when transitioning from flow to no-flow and a
longer delay on the transition from no-flow to flow. The delay time is displayed.
