Solar

If the solar control logic is “Enabled”, several additional steps must be taken to ensure proper operation of the solar system. If the solar is operated by a valve, then the Valve3 output must be setup for solar logic (page 24). If the solar is operated by a pump, then one of the AUX relays must be set up for solar logic (page 23). Also, the “solar” temperature sensor must be installed. This sensor is typically mounted near the collector array and is used to sense whether sufficient solar heat is available.

If solar is “Enabled”, the valve or solar pump relay will turn on when the water temperature is less than the desired temperature setting AND the solar sensor is hotter than the water. The desired temperature is in the “Settings Menu”. If applicable, the homeowner will be prompted to enter separate pool and spa desired temperature settings. Depending on the position of the pool/spa suction valve, the proper temperature setting will be used.

Solar Extend

If “Enabled”, the filter extend logic keeps the filter pump running beyond the normal turn-off time if solar heat is still available. When solar heat is no longer available, both the solar valve/pump and filter pump will turn off simultaneously. Solar extend will NOT cause the filter pump to turn on, it will only delay the turn off time when solar is operating.

Solar Priority

If both “Solar Control” and “Heater Control” are enabled, the Solar Priority feature will keep the conventional heater off whenever solar heat is available. This provides the most cost effective way of heating the pool. When solar heat is not available, the conventional heater will operate normally.
