Refer to the appropriate sections in the Installation manual for specific information regarding the control logic for 2-speed and variable speed pump operation. For the Hayward variable speed pump: The Filter relay is used to supply input power to the pump. The relay will be on when the filter pump output is on. When the filter pump output is off, the relay will be off. On , off and speed is controlled by commands sent to the pump. Lowest Speed This is the lowest speed that the variable speed pump is allowed to run at. It is used as the lower limit in the Low Speed Settings Menu. Set lowest speed from 10% (default) to 50%. Highest Speed This is the highest speed that the variable speed pump is allowed to run at. It is used as the upper limit in the High Speed Settings Menu. Also, this is the speed that the pump will run at during the first 3 minutes of operation anytime the pump has been off for more than 30 seconds. Set highest speed from 20% to 100% (default). Freeze Protection Freeze protection is used to protect the pool and plumbed equipment against freeze damage. If freeze protection is enabled and the AIR temperature sensor falls below the freeze threshold (see below), the Aqua Plus will turn on the filter pump to circulate the water. If "Pool and Spa" is selected in the Pool/ Spa sub-menu (see page 18), the valves will also alternate between the pool and spa every 30 minutes and the filter pump will turn off while the valves are turning. The chlorinator will not operate if freeze protection is the only reason the pump is running. Freeze Protection Speed This menu only appears if freeze protection is enabled and the pump is configured for 2-speed or variable speed pump operation. If the pump turns on due to freeze protection only, the pump will run at this speed. 2-Speed pumps: Select high (default) or low speed operation. Variable Speed pumps: Select the desired speed (from Filter Lowest to Filter Highest speed). 15 Countdown Timer - the aux relay will turn on when the AUX button is pressed and then will turn off automatically after a programmed time (see Timers Menu, Operation Manual). The AUX button can also be used to turn the output off. Low Speed of a 2-speed Filter Pump - the Aqua Plus will operate the aux relay whenever the low speed operation of the filter pump is required. It is very important that the "2-speed" filter pump option be selected under the "Filter Config." Menu for proper operation. Timeclock - the aux relay will turn-on and turn-off at the times set for the aux1 timeclock in the Timers Menu. The AUX button can also be used to turn the output on and off. Solar - the aux relay operates a solar booster pump which will turn on when the filter pump is running and solar heat is available and the water is less than the desired temperature setting. It is important to note that "Solar Control" must be enabled in the "Solar Config." menu for proper operation to occur. Super Chlorinate - if "Chlorinator" is enabled, this option allows the user to start a Super Chlorinate cycle when the Aux button is pressed, rather than using the Settings Menu. Note that only one button can be assigned to this function. Aux1 Relay This feature allows the user to select either "Standard" (default), "Dimmer" or "VSP" type relay for the Aux1 output. The optional AQL-DIM dimmer kit must be installed if "Dimmer" is desired. When "Dimmer" is selected, and the Aux1 output is manually turned on, the "+" and "-" buttons adjust the level from 20% to 100% (default). The level is saved for the next time the aux1 output is turned from off to on. If "VSP" is selected, the Aux relay is used to supply power to a Hayward Variable Speed Pump (VSP). The relay will be on when the Aux output is on and off when the output is off. On, off and speed are controlled by commands sent to the VSP. Aux1 Interlock If "Enabled", this feature will override the function (Manual On/Off, Countdown Timer, Timeclock), selected above and turn the aux1 off when: filter pump is off, first 3 minutes of filter pump operation (allows the pump to prime and get water flowing), when the pool/spa suction return valves are in any position other than "pool only", or for the first 3 minutes after solar turns on (allows air in the solar panels to be purged). Interlock is not available for solar, low speed filter pump, super chlorinate or dimmer. Aux1 External Input Interlock When Aux1 External Input Interlock is enabled, the Aux1 output will be forced off when the external input is active. This will have precedence over freeze protection. Aux1 External Input Interlock is not available for solar, low speed filter pump, dimmer, group, super chlorinate, or pH dispense functions. Aux1 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 selected freeze protection temperature, the Aqua Plus will turn on the aux relay to circulate the water. IMPORTANT: this only enables operation of the AUX output during freeze--see the "Filter Pump Config." menu to enable freeze protection for the main circulation system. Freeze Protection is not available for low speed filter pump, dimmer, group, super chlorinate or pH dispense functions. Aux1 Pump Speed This is the speed of the filter pump when the Aux1 output is on. The default selection is "Settings Menu". This is the speed of the pump that has been selected in the Settings Menu for normal filter operation. If an alternate speed is desired when the Aux1 output is on, push "+" or "-" and select from "Lowest" to "Highest" in 5% increments. 20
