Select which of the available remote controls (A, B or C) is to be configured. 6B A, Button 1 This menu allows the user to map each button of the AQL-SS-6B to one of the standard Aqua Plus functions. The default selections are: Button 1 - Pool/Spa, Button 2 - Filter, Button 3 - Lights, Button 4 Heater1, Button 5 - Aux1 and Button 6 - Aux2. Remote Menus Enabled Toggle between Enabled (default) and Disabled Remote Menus Move to previous/next configuration menu This feature will prevent unauthorized access to the Settings, Timers, and Configuration menus from any of the Aqua Plus's remote display/keypads. When disabled, the remote display/keypads will only show the default menu and allow on/off control via the pushbuttons. Note that the function of the Aqua Plus's built-in display/keypad is unchanged by this selection. Once disabled, the only way to enable "Remote Menus" is to use the local display/keypad. All Timeclocks 7-day Toggle between 7-day (default) and Weekend/Weekday time options Move to previous/next configuration menu This selection affects ALL of the timeclock logic in the Aqua Plus. If "7-day" is selected, each timeclock will have one set of turn-on/turn-off settings that operate every day of the week. If "Weekend/Weekdays" option is selected then the user can enter one set of turn-on/turn-off times for the weekend (fixed as Saturday/Sunday) and another set of turn-on/turn-off times for weekdays (Monday through Friday). Time Format 12 hour AM/PM Units ºF and PPM Toggle between 12 hour AM/PM (default) and 24 hour time format options Move to previous/next configuration menu Toggle between ºF and PPM (default) and ºC and g/L (Metric) options Move to previous/next configuration menu if any output is configured as a variable speed pump VSP Speed % Toggle between % and RPM Move to previous/next configuration menu This is the unit of measure for displaying the speed of the variable speed pump.

Preparing Pool/Spa Water General Water Chemistry Salt is required only if you are using the chlorinator features on the Aqua Plus Control. If you are NOT using the chlorinator, it is recommended that you follow all of the other chemistry recommendations besides salt. Refer to the description of the Aqua Plus configuration menu for information on enabling/disabling the chlorinator (see page 20). Water Chemistry The table below summarizes the levels that are recommended by the Association of Pool and Spa Professionals (APSP). The only special requirements for the Aqua Plus are the salt level and stabilizer. Saturation index The saturation index (Si) relates to the calcium and alkalinity in the water and is an indicator of the pool water "balance". Your water is properly balanced if the Si is 0 ±0.2. If the Si is below -0.2, the water is corrosive and plaster pool walls will be dissolved into the water. If the Si is above +0.2, scaling and staining will occur. Use the chart below to determine the saturation index. Si = pH + Ti + Ci + Ai - 12.1 ºC ºF Ti Calcuim Hardness Ci Total Alkalinity Ai 12 53 .3 75 1.5 75 1.9 100 1.6 100 2.0 16 60 .4 125 1.7 125 2.1 19 66 .5 150 1.8 150 2.2 200 1.9 200 2.3 24 76 .6 250 2.0 250 2.4 29 84 .7 300 2.1 300 2.5 400 2.2 400 2.6 34 94 .8 600 2.4 600 2.8 39 103 .9 800 2.5 800 2.9 How to use: Measure pool pH, temperature, calcium hardness, and total alkalinity. Use the chart above to determine Ti, Ci,and Ai from your measurements. Insert values of pH, Ti, Ci and Ai into the above equation. If Si equals .2 or more, scaling and staining may occur. If Si equals -.2 or less corrosion or irritation may occur. -.2 0 .2 CORROSIVE SCALING OK 2
