For pool/spa combination systems with spillover enabled, the valves will automatically switch to spillover mode at the start of the filtration period. For all other systems, the valves will switch to the pool-only position. For two speed, this setting will be the period of time when the pump runs at high speed (the word "Filter T1" in the display will be replaced with "Filter Hi"). There is a separate timeclock for the low speed operation (see "Filter T2" below). If the high speed and low speed periods overlap, then the pump will operate in low speed during the overlap period. For a variable speed pump, this setting will be the period of time when the pump will run at the speed selected for speed1 in the settings menu. If there is an overlap in any of the timeclocks, then the lower number timeclock/speed has priority. Depending on the type of filter pump used, there are several reasons why the pump may be running at times other than the timeclock period set above. These include super-chlorination, spa operation, manual operation, heater cooldown, freeze protection, heater-extend and solar-extend. For variable speed pumps, when there is more than one reason for the pump to run, the speed priority in order from highest to lowest is priming (first 3 minutes after filter has been turned on), freeze protection, group, heater minimum, aux/valve override, spa mode, speed1, speed2, speed3, speed4. Note that the reason for the current speed is shown in the Default Menu.

If the filter pump was off prior to the start of this time period, the filter pump will first turn on at high speed for 3 minutes to prime and establish water flow. Afterwards, it will drop down to low speed for the remainder of the programmed low speed time period. While this time clock will override the high speed timeclock (see above), there are several reasons why the pump will automatically switch to high speed operation during this programmed time period. These include manual operation, spa operation, or heating operation. Refer to page 10 for general notes regarding timeclock programming. For a variable speed pump, this setting will be the period of time when the pump will run at the speed selected for speed2 in the settings menu. If there is an overlap in any of the timeclocks, then the lower number timeclock/speed has priority. NOTE: The third and forth filter timeclocks function similarly to the first and second (respectively). Program these timeclocks in the same manner. 11 Quick "How To" Guide Operate the Spa-Manually 1. Press the "Pool/Spa" button to go to "spa-only" operation (right LED illuminated). In some cases, this may take more than one press of the button. 2. If the filter pump is not already on, press the "FILTER" button to turn it on. 3. If the spa is below the desired temperature, the heater will turn on automatically when the filter pump is on and the valves are in the spa-only position. If you have not already set the desired temperature for the spa, see "Set Heater Temperature" below 4. If the spa has a separate jet pump and or blower, determine if the jet pump/blower is controlled by Aux1 or Aux2 (it should be marked on the label inside the door). Then press the appropriate button to turn on the jets/blower. Operate the Spa-Automatically 1. Press the "MENU" button repeatedly until "Timers Menu" is displayed 2. Press the ">" button repeatedly until the "Spa-all" or "Spa-wkend" is displayed. 3. Use the "+" and "-" buttons to set the desired start time, then press ">" to switch to the off time. Use the "+" and "-" buttons to adjust the off time. If you are setting the "weekend" timeclock, press ">" to go to the "weekday" settings. Note: During the programmed spa time, the valves will automatically switch to the "spa-only" position, the filter pump will turn on, and, if the spa is not up to the desired temperature, the heater will start. This operation is the highest priority and will take precedence over other automatically programmed operations. At the end of the spa period, the Aqua Plus will return to its normally programmed operation state. Set the Heater Temperature (or turn heater permanently off) 1. Press the "MENU" button repeatedly until "Settings Menu" is displayed 2. Press the ">" button repeatedly until the "Spa Heater1" or "Pool Heater1" is displayed. 3. Press the "+" or "-" buttons repeatedly to adjust the temperature. If you adjust the temperature below 65ºF or above 104°F the display will indicate "off" and the heater will not operate regardless of temperature. Note: Separate temperatures for the pool and spa must be set. If the valves are in the pool-only or spa spillover positions, then the heater will use the pool setting. If the valves are in the spaonly position then the heater will operate according to the spa setting. Set the Chlorinator Output 1. Press the "MENU" button repeatedly until "Settings Menu" is displayed 2. Press the ">" button repeatedly until the "Spa Chlorinator" or "Pool Chlorinator" is displayed. 3. Press the "+" or "-" buttons repeatedly to adjust the setting. If you adjust the setting to 0% the chlorinator will be off all the time. NOTE: After the ideal setting has been found, you may need to raise the setting when the pool water temperature increases significantly, when there is higher than normal bather load or when your chlorinator cell ages. You may need to lower the setting when the pool water temperature decreases significantly or there are long periods of inactivity. 24

For one speed pumps, this is the first filter timeclock and will determine the normal hours of filtration
for the pool.
For pool/spa combination systems with spillover enabled, the valves will automatically
switch to spillover mode at the start of the filtration period.
For all other systems, the valves will
switch to the pool-only
position.
For two speed, this setting will be the period of time when the pump runs at high speed (the word
“Filter T1” in the display will be replaced with “Filter Hi”).
There is a separate timeclock for the low
speed operation (see “Filter T2” below).
If the high speed and low speed periods overlap, then the
pump will operate in low speed during the overlap period.
For a variable speed pump, this setting will be the period of time when the pump will run at the speed
selected for speed1 in the settings menu.
If there is an overlap in any of the timeclocks, then the lower
number timeclock/speed has priority.
Depending on the type of filter pump used, there are several reasons why the pump may be running
at times other than the timeclock period set above.
These include super-chlorination, spa operation,
manual operation, heater cooldown, freeze protection, heater-extend and solar-extend. For variable
speed pumps, when there is more than one reason for the pump to run, the speed priority in order from
highest to lowest is priming (first 3 minutes after filter has been turned on), freeze protection, group,
heater minimum, aux/valve override, spa mode, speed1, speed2, speed3, speed4.
Note that the reason
for the current speed is shown in the Default Menu
