Battery Backup
A nine-volt battery is located at the power center.
The battery keeps the clock running during a
power outage so the time and date will be correct
when power is restored. Programming will not be
lost even if the battery is dead. Do not install the
battery in the power center until the system is ready
to operate. Battery will drain if power is left off.
Review DI AG NOS TICS in the SYSTEM SETUP
section of the menu. The DIAGNOSTICS will
indicate when the battery needs replacement.
ATTENTION
Special Note to Startup Person: The
AquaLink RS PDA allows two (2) options for
operating the pool equipment on the first day of
operation:
Option #1 - Once all programming of equipment
is completed, the AquaLink RS PDA will
automatically review all programs and turn on
any equipment which is programmed to be on.
Option #2 - To operate the filter pump or
cleaner continually for the first day, leave the
power center service button in AUTO mode.
Using the PDA Handheld Remote, turn on the
filter pump or the equip ment you want to run.
NOTE If the equipment has already been turned on
by a program time, turn the equipment off
and then back on.
The equipment that is ac ti vat ed will run
con tin u ous ly, ignoring the first programmed
off time, and will turn off at the programmed
off time for the next day (only if a program has
been entered).
