Pool/Spa Mode Menus

The following describes the 13 menus provided for Pool/Spa Mode. Each menu item and it’s number
(1 through 13) is displayed on the top line of the main screen.

Circuit On/Off Menu (1/13)

Use the “Circuit On/Off” feature to manually switch the pool filter pump, AUX 1, AUX 2, and AUX 3 relay
output ON or OFF. Switching these circuit on or off will override programmed schedules that might already be
assigned to circuits. For more information about schedules, see “Schedules Menu” on page 17.
Pool Filter Pump On/Off: Use the “Circuit On/Off” Pool setting, to manually switch the pool filter pump relay
on or off. When the pool filter pump is set to on, the valve actuator will rotate to isolate the pool water from
the spa water, and switch the heater on (if enabled in the “Heat” menu). When this circuit relay is switched on
manually, it remains on until either you switch it off manually or the default 12 hours has elapsed. For example,
if the filter pump is scheduled to automatically run from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM daily, then the filter pump is
switched on manually at 9:00 PM, it will run continuously until the next day at 5:00 PM then switch off. The
schedule will then continue from then on. The top display line on the main status screen will alternately display
the current water temperature and the current air temperature (if the air sensor is enable, see page 24 for
details). If the pool filter pump is on, and the spa is switched on using the Up arrow button, the main status
screen will alternately display the current water temperature between “Pool” and “Spa” mode. For HI-TEMP,
LO-TEMP controls (SunTouch single body system), see page 33.
Menu button: Select the Circuit On/Off menu (1/13).
Right button: Select the “Circuit On/Off” Pool On/Off setting. Use this function to
manually switch the pool filter pump on or off.
Note: The Solar auxiliary relay (Valve C) on the SunTouch motherboard can
operate a solar booster pump which will switch on when the filter pump is
running. Solar heat must also be available and the water must be below the set
point temperature setting. For more information, see “Solar Menu” on page 20.
Up/Down button: Press the Up or down button to toggle the setting on or off. After
changing the setting the main status screen displays the current water temperature.
To adjust the set point temperature, use the Left and Right arrow buttons.
Left button: Press the Left button to return to the main status screen.
AUX 1 2: Use this feature to manually switch the auxiliary relay output circuit on or off. These auxiliary
circuits can be assigned to operate the pool and spa system valves, lights and other equipment. When the
AUX 1 or AUX 2 circuit relay is switched on manually, it remains on until either you switch it off manually,
the default 12 hours has elapsed. For example, if the filter pump is scheduled to automatically run from 9:00
AM to 5:00 PM daily then the filter pump is switched on manually at 9:00 PM, it will run continuously until the
next day at 5:00 PM then switch off. The schedule will then continue from then on.
Menu button: Select the Circuit On/Off menu to manually switch AUX 1, AUX 2
relay on or off
Right button: Press the Right button until AUX 1, AUX 2, or AUX 3 is displayed.
Up/Down button: Press the Up or down button to toggle the AUX circuit on or off.
Left button: Press the Left button to return to the main status screen.
AUX 3: The AUX 3 circuit can be used as an extra assignment to control pump speeds or a valve actuator (see
page 26 for details). For example, AUX 3 can be assigned to control the high speed function of a 2-Speed
pump or one of the four speeds of the IntelliFlo 4x160 pump. The pump speed control can be selected/
activated via a scheduled program or switched on/off manually. You can also assign a button on the
four-function QuickTouch wireless remote (optional equipment) to control the high-speed pump function.
