OPERATING THE PUMP
Setting the Clock
When the pump is first installed, it is necessary
to set the clock. Any daily schedule set by the user
must be based on.
To Set the Clock:
1. When power is applied to the pump, the Time
LED light will begin blinking and you must press
the Display button within 5 seconds to enter
the clock setup mode. (If Display button is not
pressed within 5 seconds, you may press '<' and
'>' together for 3 seconds to begin again. The
Time LED light will begin blinking. Quickly press
the Display button within 5 seconds to enter the
clock setup mode.)
2. Use the '<' and '>' arrows to choose between a
12 or 24 hour time format.
3. Use the '+' and '-' buttons to change the displayed
time to the correct time of day. In the 12 hour
time format AM/PM will display in the bottom left
corner.
4. To exit the clock setup mode, press and hold the
Display button until the TIME light goes out. The
clock is now set.
5. In Schedule mode, Press START and allow pump
to run on Default Schedule for at least one ON-
OFF cycle. If motor does not start, press any
speed button.
Attention: Steps 1-4 are used for Schedule Mode and
Manual Mode. Step 5 is only used for Schedule Mode.
During a power outage, the drive will retain the clock
setting in memory for as long as 24 hours. If the
power is out longer than 24 hours the clock will have
to be set again.
The installer should set the priming speed to be sufficient for priming the pump from a fresh install, but not so
fast that there is a substantial waste of energy. The time the pump needs to achieve prime can change based on
local environmental conditions such as water temperature, atmospheric pressure, and the pool's water level. All
of these things should be taken into consideration when setting the priming speed, however in most cases the
pump will not need to run at 3450 RPM to successfully prime itself.
Please test and verify chosen priming speeds more than once, letting the water drain from the system in
between each test. Turn on pump and switch to Manual mode to test Priming by operating SPEED 1. Take note
of the time that the water filled the PUMP HOUSING, then stop the pump. Re-start the pump to set the SPEED 1 /
Priming duration.

Note: When power is returned to the pump after
a prolonged outage (24+ hours) the clock will
automatically set itself to the Speed 1 start time, blink
and advance. The pump will also run the associated
schedule from that start time.
Using the Default Schedule
The default schedule is designed to provide enough
daily turnover to service a typical pool. See Table 2
for default schedule.
Duration (Hours)
SPEED 1
SPEED 2
SPEED 3
SPEED 4
Table 2: Default Schedule
SPEED 1 is set to begin at 8:00 am and run at 3000
RPM for a duration of 2 hours. When SPEED 1 is
complete the pump immediately begins running the
default speed 2. SPEED 2 is factory default to 1500
RPM and will last for 10 hours. When SPEED 2 has
completed its run the pump will run SPEED 3 at 2500
RPM for a duration of two hours. When SPEED 3 has
completed its run the pump will run SPEED 4 at 1000
RPM for a duration of four hours.
After 18 hours of run time and completing its run of
SPEED 4, the pump will enter a stationary/paused
state for the next 6 hours. The pump will restart at
8:00 am the next morning and cycle through the
default schedule again. The pump will continue to run
in this manner until a custom schedule is programmed
into the drive by the user.
Note: The Start/Stop button must be pressed and the
LED lit, for the pump to run.
